It is unclear whether transport by human vectors can increase the robustness of translocated populations and thereby enhance their invasiveness. To test this concept, we investigated the effect of heat stress on the tolerance of mussel populations towards a second stress event of the same kind. The heat challenges we mimicked can be faced by marine invertebrates that are transported through regions with high sea surface temperatures on ship hulls or in ballast water tanks. The study included 5…

Nutritional vulnerability of early zoeal stages of the invasive shrimp Lysmata vittata (Decapoda: Caridea) in the Atlantic Ocean
- Biology, Environmental ScienceJournal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom
- 2020
The nutritional vulnerability index (PRS50/PNR50 = 0.54) indicates that L. vittata presents intermediate dependence on exogenous food during the early larval stages, which might help the understanding of the invasive potential of this species in the Atlantic Ocean.

The findings of this study indicated that M. edulis was consistently the most abundant species, followed by hybrids and M. galloprovincialis, however, nearshore meteorological extremes may have an impact in its larval settlement, establishment and subsequent reproductive output.

Behavioural, morphological, and life history shifts during invasive spread
- Environmental ScienceBiological Invasions

The results show that invasive populations are phenotypically distinct from native populations, with some behavioural, life history, and morphological traits that would increase spread (dispersal tendency, high fecundity) and persistence (sibling cannibalism) in new habitats.

The physiological effects of thermal stress in both low tide and high tide conditions are compared between Mytilus galloprovincialis, a worldwide mussel invader, and M. trossulus, a sibling species and results suggest that as climates shift due to global warming, the temperatures favorable to M. gallopovincialis will become more common.

It is explained why phenotypic plasticity and high BCIs are more likely the causes of population-specific differences in hypoxia tolerance in P. viridis than stress-induced selection for robust genotypes.

Temperature Tolerance and Stress Proteins as Mechanisms of Invasive Species Success
- Environmental SciencePloS one

Empirical data from a marine community is used as a case study to address the hypotheses that (1) geographic temperature range attributes are related to temperature tolerance, leading to greater eurythermality in invasive species, and (2) stress protein expression is a subcellular mechanism that could contribute to differences in thermotolerance.

There are clear competitive advantages for the non-indigenous G. tigrinus compared to the indigenous G. zaddachi, and these may be further strengthened through ongoing environmental changes related to increased eutrophication and a warming climate in the Baltic Sea region.

A strong correlation between Hsp70 expression levels and thermal resistance following a heat hardening treatment is supported and it is shown that gene and protein expression follow different dynamics, a difference that may be important for the understanding of the role of candidate genes in functional studies.
