Historical and contemporary range expansion of an invasive mussel, Semimytlius algosus, in Angola and Namibia despite data scarcity in an infrequently surveyed region.

Autor: Kevin C K Ma, Gerardo I Zardi, Christopher D McQuaid, Katy R Nicastro

Publikováno v: PLoS ONE, Vol 15, Iss 9, p e0239167 (2020)

Understanding the spread of invasive species in many regions is difficult because surveys are rare. Here, historical records of the invasive marine mussel, Semimytilus algosus, on the shores of Angola and Namibia are synthesised to re-construct its i

Cheating the Locals: Invasive Mussels Steal and Benefit from the Cooling Effect of Indigenous Mussels.

Autor: Justin A Lathlean, Laurent Seuront, Christopher D McQuaid, Terence P T Ng, Gerardo I Zardi, Katy R Nicastro

Publikováno v: PLoS ONE, Vol 11, Iss 3, p e0152556 (2016)

The indigenous South African mussel Perna perna gapes during periods of aerial exposure to maintain aerobic respiration. This behaviour has no effect on the body temperatures of isolated individuals, but when surrounded by conspecifics, beneficial co

Publikováno v: PLoS ONE, Vol 10, Iss 6, p e0128124 (2015)

Invasive species can affect the function and structure of natural ecological communities, hence understanding and predicting their potential for spreading is a major ecological challenge. Once established in a new region, the spread of invasive speci

Love thy neighbour: group properties of gaping behaviour in mussel aggregations.

Autor: Katy R Nicastro, Gerardo I Zardi, Christopher D McQuaid, Gareth A Pearson, Ester A Serrão

Publikováno v: PLoS ONE, Vol 7, Iss 10, p e47382 (2012)

By associating closely with others to form a group, an animal can benefit from a number of advantages including reduced risk of predation, amelioration of environmental conditions, and increased reproductive success, but at the price of reduced resou

Adaptive traits are maintained on steep selective gradients despite gene flow and hybridization in the intertidal zone.

Autor: Gerardo I Zardi, Katy R Nicastro, Fernando Canovas, Joana Ferreira Costa, Ester A Serrão, Gareth A Pearson

Publikováno v: PLoS ONE, Vol 6, Iss 6, p e19402 (2011)

Gene flow among hybridizing species with incomplete reproductive barriers blurs species boundaries, while selection under heterogeneous local ecological conditions or along strong gradients may counteract this tendency. Congeneric, externally-fertili

Transcriptome wide analyses reveal intraspecific diversity in thermal stress responses of a dominant habitat‐forming species

Autor: Katy R. Nicastro, Gareth A. Pearson, Xana Ramos, Vasco Pearson, Christopher D. McQuaid, Gerardo I. Zardi

Publikováno v: Scientific Reports, Vol 13, Iss 1, Pp 1-18 (2023)

Abstract The impact of climate change on biodiversity has stimulated the need to understand environmental stress responses, particularly for ecosystem engineers whose responses to climate affect large numbers of associated organisms. Distinct species

Euendolithic Infestation of Mussel Shells Indirectly Improves the Thermal Buffering Offered by Mussel Beds to Associated Molluscs, but One Size Does Not Fit All

Autor: Alexia M. Dievart, Christopher D. McQuaid, Gerardo I. Zardi, Katy R. Nicastro, Pierre W. Froneman

Publikováno v: Diversity, Vol 15, Iss 2, p 239 (2023)

Mussel beds form important intertidal matrices that provide thermal buffering to associated invertebrate communities, especially under stressful environmental conditions. Mussel shells are often colonized by photoautotrophic euendoliths, which have i

Heat-induced mass mortalities involving ecosystem engineers may have long-lasting detrimental effects at the community level, eliminating the ecosystem services they provide. Intertidal mussels are ecologically and economically valuable with some pop

Biogeographic drivers of distribution and abundance in an alien ecosystem engineer: Transboundary range expansion, barriers to spread, and spatial structure

Autor: Katy R. Nicastro, Gerardo I. Zardi, Christopher D. McQuaid, Kevin C. K. Ma, Jonathan Monsinjon, Giacomo Bernardi, Molline N. C. Gusha

Publikováno v: Journal of Biogeography. 48:1941-1959

Aim Biogeographic boundaries can act as either weak or strong barriers to the spread of species undergoing distributional change. Once a novel species spreads across a boundary, it can have a substantial impact on the ecosystem, for instance by compe

Self-organized, regular spatial patterns emerging from local interactions among individuals enhance the ability of ecosystems to respond to environmental disturbances. Mussels self-organize to form large, regularly patterned biogenic structures that
