Experimental study on control of Limnoperna fortunei biofouling in water transfer tunnels
(Elsevier, 2015-06)
The golden mussel (Limnoperna fortunei) is a filter-collector macroinvertebrate species originating from southern China. It easily invades water transfer tunnels and attaches onto tunnel walls and structures with extremely ...
Effects of conspecifics on settling juveniles of the invasive golden mussel, Limnoperna fortunei
(Birkhauser Verlag Ag, 2009-12)
We conducted a field experiment to assess the influence of conspecific adults on recruitment success of the golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei. Tiles of 225 cm2 in surface were used as artificial substrates in four treatments: ...

A South American bioinvasion case history: Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857), the golden mussel
(American Malacological Society, 2005-12)
Two factors combine in this age of globalization to favor the establishment of alien species in natural environments: human activities and global climate change. This paper reviews the recent invasion of the golden mussel, ...
Vulnerability of microcrustaceans to predation by the invasive filter-feeding mussel Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker)
(Taylor & Francis, 2011-11)
Limnoperna fortunei is an Asian mussel introduced to South America around 1990. One of the most important impacts of this invader is probably its grazing on the plankton. In this study we evaluate the vulnerability of ...
Impact of the invasive mussel Limnoperna fortunei on glyphosate concentration in water
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2012-07)
The use of glyphosate has increased dramatically during the past years around the world. Microbial communities are altered when glyphosate reaches water bodies. The freshwater golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei is an invasive ...

Benthic community responses to invasion by the golden mussel, Limnoperna fortunei Dunker: Biotic homogenization vs environmental driving forces
(North Amer Benthological Soc, 2011-09-20)
The goal of our study was to investigate the interaction between the invasive mussel Limnoperna fortunei and benthic invertebrate communities at different spatial scales and under different environmental conditions. We ...
