Physiological Response of the Freshwater Mussel Unio douglasiae in Microcystis aeruginosa Bloom Waters

In the present study, we evaluated the effects of different environments on the filtering rate (FR), mortality, and biodeposition (BD) of the freshwater mussel Unio douglasiae in bloom waters containing the toxic cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa. The mean FR of 19 selected individuals (shell le...

Zusammenfassung:	In the present study, we evaluated the effects of different environments on the filtering rate (FR), mortality, and biodeposition (BD) of the freshwater mussel Unio douglasiae in bloom waters containing the toxic cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa. The mean FR of 19 selected individuals (shell length, 5.0–9.8 cm) was 0.30±0.03 L g−1 h−1 (range=0.24–0.35 L g−1 h−1). Shell length was strongly correlated with both net and gross BD of mussels (P
