Unexpected Shifts in Bivalve Function From Filtration to Transmission Risk

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 70, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Understanding the complex interactions between filter‐feeding species and zoonotic disease transmission in aquatic environments is crucial for accurately quantifying the ecosystem services provided by these organisms. This study explores for the first time the roles of freshwater bivalves in the transmission dynamics of emerging zoonotic ...

A Time‐ and Cost‐Effective eDNA Protocol to Survey Freshwater Mussels (Bivalvia: Unionida) in Tropical Rivers

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 3, May–June 2025.
ABSTRACT Tropical freshwater mussels (Bivalvia: Unionida) are one of the most endangered groups of animals globally, but conservation is hindered by a lack of species distribution data. Traditional hand‐sampling is time‐ and cost‐intensive and not always possible, for example, because of the presence of crocodiles.

Surviving global change: a review of the impacts of drought and dewatering on freshwater mussels

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 1, Page 275-307, February 2025.
ABSTRACT The increase in the frequency and intensity of droughts and heatwaves caused by climate change poses a major threat to biodiversity. In aquatic systems, sedentary species such as freshwater mussels are generally considered more vulnerable to changes in habitat conditions than mobile species such as fish.
