2447 Corbicula fluminea Competition Experimental Field In experiments, Corbicula reduced seston concentration resulting in competition for food with native bivalves. 9096
2658 Corbicula fluminea Competition Observational Field Corbicula fluminea appears to cause localized reduction of seston concentration and may rapidly clear the sediment boundary layer of food. However, there was no detectable effect on the native bivalve population. Corbicula had only been there for 10 years though, so impacts on native mussels may not be fully realized. 9096
2664 Corbicula fluminea Competition Experimental Laboratory This study suggest that C. fluminea has the ability to alter nutrient cycling dynamics and the availability of materials in the water column. In addition, biodeposition of filtered materials into the sediments could cause competition among filter feeders because of reduction of materials in the water column. 28157
2676 Corbicula fluminea Competition Observational Field Unionid growth was adversely affected by the presence of Corbiculaas mussel growth rates decreased when numbers of Corbicula increased. 23995
2677 Corbicula fluminea Competition Observational Field Corbicula can uproot burrowed native unionids. 33768
2680 Corbicula fluminea Competition Experimental N/A Depletion of energetic reserves of native mussels to cope with increasing global temperatures could compromise the tolerance to additional stressors such as competition with invasive species such as Corbicula or food reduction. 33056
2681 Corbicula fluminea Competition Experimental Laboratory The results from this study indicate that native freshwater mussels might be also threatened by global warming owing to asymmetric interspecific competition with the invasive Asiatic clam, Corbicula fluminea, further compromising their long-term conservation. 33125
2682 Corbicula fluminea Competition Experimental Laboratory The native unionid Unio delphinus,/em> exhibited lower growth, lower physiological condition, and higher locomotor activity at higher Corbicula fluminea density, which may suggest that this unionid is negatively affected by C. fluminea and maybe displaced to less favorable habitats. 31134
5383 Corbicula fluminea Competition Experimental Field Native mussel abundance was also negatively impacted by the presence of Corbicula fluminea in a Kentucky river Kentucky 38688
5384 Corbicula fluminea Competition Experimental Laboratory Experimental ponds infested with Hydrilla verticillata that were treated with Ctenopharyngodon idella resulted in secondary infestations of Corbicula fluminea likely due to its superior competitive abilities and the loss of habitat for native species 38689
5385 Corbicula fluminea Competition Experimental Laboratory The high thermal tolerance of Corbicula fluminea may allow it to benefit more than native mussels during heat wave mass mortality events due to higher reproductive potential and faster recovery 38685
5445 Corbicula fluminea Competition Observational Field Corbicula fluminea may filter a wider range of food sources at a faster rate than native fresh water mussels, which could decrease food availability for other benthic and pelagic species - based on stable isotope analysis. Georgia 28157
5447 Corbicula fluminea Competition Observational Field Stable isotope ratios demonstrate that C. fluminea occupies a larger trophic niche space and has lower trophic fidelity than (native) E. crassidens . This leads authors to speculate that the non-native ingests some of the same materials as native species, but has the ability to assimilate a broader range of food resources and are flexible to take advantage of available resources. Georgia 28157
5448 Corbicula fluminea Competition Anecdotal N/A The author notes that Corbicula has been accused of greater impacts on the native bivalves of North America than any invader other than the zebra mussel, but their review concludes evidence is weak. North America 13063
5450 Corbicula fluminea Competition Anecdotal N/A because it may deplete phytoplankton and feeds on particles in the sediments, it may also impact sphaerids and juvenile unionids that rely on these food sources North America 13063
5454 Corbicula fluminea Competition Anecdotal N/A Review notes that Corbicula and native bivalves (especially unionids) have non-overlapping ranges - competition is one possible interpretation of this data North America 13063
5455 Corbicula fluminea Competition Anecdotal N/A Review notes several cases of precipitous declines in sphaerids following Corbicula invasion North America 13063
5456 Corbicula fluminea Competition Anecdotal N/A Dense populations of Corbicula are alble to coexist with unionids in many cases North America 13063
5457 Corbicula fluminea Competition Anecdotal N/A Corbicula has a 'marked but not statistically significant' effect on growth of Elliptio in cage culture North America 13063
5458 Corbicula fluminea Competition Anecdotal N/A Review notes some authors conclude Corbicula and native bivalves have different habitat requirements and interact only weakly North America 13063
5459 Corbicula fluminea Competition Anecdotal N/A review notes some authors conclude Corbicula has devastating impact on unionids North America 13063
5460 Corbicula fluminea Competition Experimental Laboratory Corbicula fluminea cleared test bacteria (E. coli) more rapidly than native (riverine) unionids North America 20779
5462 Corbicula fluminea Competition Experimental Laboratory On a gill surface area basis, Corbicula fluminea cleared bacteria at a faster rate than Dreissena polymorpha North America 20779
5463 Corbicula fluminea Competition Observational Field Corbicula fluminea became the dominant species (numeric and biomass) within 15 years of introduction. Native bivalve fauna nearly disappeared, at least on soft-bottom substrates. Portugal, River Minho estuary 38675
5466 Corbicula fluminea Competition Anecdotal N/A Corbicula biomass can exceed that of all other benthic metazoans in sandy streams 33099
