Freshwater mussels are one of the most threatened animal groups in world. In European Union, and protected mussel species not adequately monitored, while considered to be common widespread receive even less attention. This is particularly worrying Mediterranean region, where endemism high freshwater habitats severely affected by water scarcity. absence hard data on population trends, we report here a long-term comparison assemblages at 132 sites covering 15 different hydrological basins...

The recurrence and severity of wildfire is on the rise due to factors like global warming human activities. Mediterranean regions are prone significant events, which cause extensive damage ecosystems soil properties. This study focuses municipality Allande in south-western Asturias (Spain), a region highly affected by recurrent wildfires. In this regard, we sought examine how such fires influences organic carbon fractionation other parameters, as nitrogen fractionation, pH, cation exchange...

Abstract Effective conservation actions to counteract the current decline of populations and species require a deep knowledge on their genetic structure. We used Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) infer population structure highly threatened freshwater pearl mussel Margaritifera margaritifera in Iberian Peninsula. A total 130 individuals were collected from 26 locations belonging 16 basins. obtained 31,692 SNPs through Genotyping by Sequencing (GBS) this dataset Genetic diversity given...

Climate change and associated shifts in temperature precipitation patterns have become an increasing concern as drivers of ongoing biodiversity loss. The Mediterranean region is particularly vulnerable, being both a hotspot very prone to desertification. Freshwater mussels are amongst the most threatened invertebrate taxa worldwide. Unio tumidiformis endemic endangered species restricted southern Iberian Peninsula, living temporary Mediterranean-type streams. need fish host for successful...
