DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2020.107300
Abstract: Abstract Mussels have important ecological functions in freshwater ecosystems, but populations are declining in many rivers worldwide. In the Amazon, which is undergoing widespread human-mediated alterations, information on mussel ecology is lacking. We investigated whether… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-50549-8
Abstract: Mussels form extensive beds in rocky intertidal habitats on temperate seashores worldwide. They are foundation species because their beds host many invertebrates. Mussels and their associated species differ taxonomically among biogeographic regions, but all mussel… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/fwb.13175
Abstract: Freshwater mussels are among the world’s most imperilled species, and much effort has been expended to understand their precipitous decline. The current paradigm is that relative river bed stability over decades is critical to maintaining… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/rec.13075
Abstract: The failure of depleted bivalve populations to recover naturally is often due to a breakdown in recruitment processes, such as a lack of larvae or suitable settlement substrate. The identification of these recruitment limitations are… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/rec.14160
Abstract: In recent decades, mussel beds in the northern Atlantic and Scandinavia have declined rapidly in extent due to anthropogenic impacts, similar to many other marine habitats. In this study, a large‐scale restoration experiment was conducted… read more here.
