2/2 "Residents are advised of a #California Department of #PublicHealth #mussel #quarantine order effective May 1 through October 31, 2025. During the quarantine, all species of mussels gathered by recreational sport harvesters from California’s ocean shore should not be consumed by humans. The quarantine area extends from the #Oregon border to the Mexican border, including all bays, inlets, and harbors in #LosAngelesCounty..."

Door een ongeval tussen een busje en een auto in het Groningse Mussel zijn rond 07.30 uur meerdere mensen ernstig gewond geraakt. Een woordvoerder van de politie kan nog niet zeggen hoeveel slachtoffers er precies zijn en hoe het ongeluk heeft kunnen gebeuren.

Investigating the remarkable reproductive cycle of #Michigan's threatened #mollusks https://phys.org/news/2024-05-qa-remarkable-reproductive-michigan-threatened.html

Polymorphism in the aggressive #mimicry lure of the parasitic freshwater #mussel #Lampsilis fasciola https://peerj.com/articles/17359/

"the freshwater #mussels' remarkable reproductive cycle includes the use of fleshy 'mantle lures' by pregnant females to attract nearby #fish and infect them with mussel #larvae."

Dynamic bio-interface between mussel tissue and byssus plays important role in quick release https://phys.org/news/2023-11-dynamic-bio-interface-mussel-tissue-byssus.html

A strong quick-release #biointerface in mussels mediated by serotonergic cilia-based adhesion https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adi7401

"#Mussels use #byssus threads (known commonly as a beard) to attach themselves to solid objects such as rocks. The #mussel byssus has been extensively studied due to their unique ability to connect nonliving material to living tissue and to disconnect on demand."

“We’ve already seen lots of the harmful impacts of #plastic waste from mussel farms on the seafloor,” says Jenny Hillman, a marine scientist at the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

“So, we’re really excited about what this research offers to support better practices in #mussel restoration—and in the #aquaculture industry.”

Each Molluskan Zodiac also has a profile page (including lucky and unlucky numbers). Here is what it means to be a #Mussel:

Unlucky in life. Unlucky in love. Mussels try hard but often fail. They know the price of everything but the value of nothing. They are, however, great lovers and also have a great sense of punctuality.

Likes: being on time
Dislikes: being late
Lucky number: 1.6180339887
Unlucky number: 0.5772156649

#Mussels are important in #freshwater #ecosystems because they filter the water and remove #algae. As filter feeders they’re exposed to everything in the water, and this makes them a valuable indicator of #ecosystem health. #Mussel shells also provide places for other #aquatic species to live.

cool find going through work storage - anyone have a favorite #freshwater #mussel (#unionidae) or #FreshwaterFish host?

When an #invasive species is so abundant that it alters geochemical processes. With more than 10.000 individuals per m² and more than 90% of the benthic biomass, dreissenid mussels sequester massive amounts of P, acting as a sink for phosphorus. #science #biology #mussel #conservation #ecology #freshwater
