Bivalve Molluscs: Biology, Ecology, and Culture
TL;DR: Bivalve Molluscs: Biology, Ecology, and Culture as discussed by the authors is a comprehensive textbook that covers most aspects of commercially important molluscan species and their relationships with humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bivalve Impacts in Freshwater and Marine Ecosystems
TL;DR: Bivalve molluscs have epifaunal or infaunal lifestyles but are largely filter feeders that coup... as mentioned in this paper, but are abundant in marine and freshwater ecosystems and perform important ecological functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infectious diseases in oyster aquaculture require a new integrated approach.
TL;DR: The case for an integrated approach to study the management of bivalve disease, using OsHV-1 as a case study is explored, finding that reconsidering the key issues by incorporating multidisciplinary science could provide a holistic understanding of OsHv-1 and increase the benefit of research to policymakers.

Organisms as ecosystem engineers
TL;DR: The role that many organisms play in the creation, modification and maintenance of habitats does not involve direct trophic interactions between species, but they are nevertheless important and common.

TL;DR: In this article, the introduction of invasive species and identifying life history stages where management will be most effective are discussed. And evolutionary processes may be key features in determining whether invasive species establish and spread.

Exotic plant invasions and the enemy release hypothesis
Ryan M. Keane,Michael J. Crawley +1 more
TL;DR: Competitive release through greater generalist enemy impact on natives seems to be an important but understudied mechanism of enemy release, but there is a serious need for experiments involving exclusion of natural enemies in invaded plant communities.

Progress in invasion biology: predicting invaders
Cynthia S. Kolar,David M. Lodge +1 more
TL;DR: Although restricted to few taxa, these studies reveal clear relationships between the characteristics of releases and the species involved, and the successful establishment and spread of invaders.
