Shell growth of the golden mussel, Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857) (Mytilidae), in the Río de la Plata, Argentina
(Kluwer Academic/plenum Publ, 2003-12)
The golden mussel, Limnoperna fortunei, is an invasive freshwater bivalve. Since its introduction to Argentina, it had caused damage to the native fauna as well as economic damage to industries of the region. Here, we ...
Cellular development of the germinal epithelium during the gametogenic cycle of the golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei (Bivalvia: Mytilidae)
(Revista De Biologia Tropical, 2016-06-01)
The golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei is an invasive species that has quickly dispersed and colonized several potential different habitats distributed all over the world, causing environmental and economic impacts. Thus, ...

Detachment, displacement and re-attachment activity in a freshwater byssate mussel (Limnoperna fortunei): the effects of light, temperature and substrate orientation
(Taylor & Francis, 2015-09)
The ability of the freshwater bivalve Limnoperna fortunei to voluntarily detach from the substratum, crawl and reattachas a function of illumination, temperature, substratum orientation, and mussel size was investigated. ...
Impact of multiple anthropogenic stressors on freshwater: how do glyphosate and the invasive mussel Limnoperna fortunei affect microbial communities and water quality?
(Springer, 2015-09)
The study of the joint effect of multiple anthropogenic stressors is important because the emerging consequences are often unpredictable on the basis of knowledge of single effects. We explored the joint impact of glyphosate ...
Toxicity of Neem’s oil, a potential biocide against the invasive Mussel Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker 1857)
(Academia Brasileira de Ciencias, 2012-12)
The golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker 1857) is one of the most distributed Nuisance Invasive Species (NIS) in South America, and a threat of great concern for the industry of the area. In this study, we carried out ...
Effects of 254 nm UV irradiation on the mobility and survival of larvae of the invasive fouling mussel Limnoperna fortunei
(Taylor & Francis, 2014-04)
In order to investigate the feasibility of using ultraviolet (UV) irradiation to prevent the invasive Asian mussel, Limnoperna fortunei, from colonizing components of the cooling systems of industrial and power plants, the ...
Large-scale purification of pachydictyol A from the brown alga Dictyota dichotoma obtained from algal wash and evaluation of its antifouling activity against the freshwater mollusk Limnoperna fortunei
(Springer, 2018-02)
A scalable procedure was developed for the extraction and purification of pachydictyol A, the main diterpenoid isolated from the brown alga Dictyota dichotoma. The organic extract of this species is a complex mixture of a ...
More than two decades after the introduction of limnoperna fortunei (Dunker 1857) in La Plata BasinDuas décadas após a chegada de limnoperna fortunei (Dunker 1857) na bacia do Prata
(2018-11-01)
The golden mussel, Limnoperna fortunei, is an Asian freshwater bivalve introduced in South America in the beginning of the 1990’s, probably through ballast water releases in La Plata River estuary. It dispersed north through ...
Impacts of the Invading Golden Mussel Limnoperna fortunei on Zooplankton: a Mesocosm Experiment
(Academia Sinica, 2012-04)
Invasive filter-feeding mussels and clams are well-known for profoundly impacting the invaded systems. Many studies in South America documented interactions of the Asian mussel Limnoperna fortunei with several components ...
