Endosymbionts of Dreissena Polymorpha in Ireland: Evidence for the Introduction of Adult Mussels
Although zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) have invaded waters across Europe for over 200 years, they colonized Ireland only within the past decade. To test the hypothesis that Ireland was colonized by adultD. polymorpha, we examined mussels from different sites along the Lower Shannon River system in Ireland for the presence of host specific and generalist endosymbionts.Within the mantle ca...

متن کاملSeasonal dynamics of endosymbiotic ciliates and nematodes in Dreissena polymorpha.
We report the results of a two-year study in the Svisloch River (Minsk, Belarus) on the dynamics of infection in Dreissena polymorpha by nematodes and three ciliate species Conchophthirus acuminatus, Ophryoglena sp., and Ancistrumina limnica. Although these endosymbionts were present in most of the samples, their prevalence and infection intensity differed significantly. C. acuminatus and A. li...
متن کاملAbundance of Dreissena polymorpha and Dreissena bugensis in a warmwater plume: effects of depth and temperature
The generalization that quagga mussel (Dreissena bugensis) and zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) occur in deepcold water and shallowwarm water, respectively, is inappropriate. We estimated dreissenid densities at sites affected by warmwater discharges into Lake Erie (Nanticoke, Ontario) to separate the effects of depth and temperature. Both species densities increased with depth. After con...
متن کاملPseudodiarrhoea in zebra mussels Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas) exposed to microcystins.
Microcystins are produced by bloom-forming cyanobacteria and pose significant health and ecological problems. In this study we show that zebra mussels respond differently to different strains of Microcystis aeruginosa, and that a highly toxic strain causes zebra mussels to produce large quantities of mucous pseudofaeces, 'pseudodiarrhoea', that are periodically expelled hydraulically through th...
