Genetic structuring in the freshwater musselAnodontacorresponds with major hydrologic basins in the western United States

Abstract: Freshwater mussels (unionids) are increasingly recognized as important providers of ecosystem services, yet are among the most endangered fauna in the world. Because unionids are generally sessile and require specific fish hosts for development and dispersal, they are particularly vulnerable to habitat degradation. Surprisingly, little is known about the distribution of genetic diversity in freshwater mussels and this gap has a negative impact on taxonomy, monitoring, conservation and ecological research in th… Show more

“…1 and Table S1 Surprisingly, this rate is much slower than those published for other bivalves (e.g. 0.6 %/my in Renard et al 2000;Mock et al 2010;0.67-1.21 %/my in Marko 2002;and 0.55-2.04 %/my in Luttikhuizen et al 2003). Due to this difference, future studies on Unionida should use the rate obtained in this study instead.…”

“…Hydrological networks have been found to be effective barriers to gene flow for many terrestrial and amphibious vertebrates, birds and several freshwater species (Meffe & Vrijenhoek, 1988;Ward, Woodwark & Skibinski, 1994;Avise, Walker & Johns, 1998;Gascon et al, 1998Gascon et al, , 2000Eriksson et al, 2004;Hughes et al, 2004;Domínguez-Domínguez et al, 2006;Hubert & Renno, 2006;Mock et al, 2010;Nicolas et al, 2011). Drainage evolution along the south-eastern and south-western coasts of South Africa, particularly drainage isolation and interconnection, as well as the development of hydrological basins, strongly reflects the history of the transformation of the Cape Fold Mountains (CFM; Waters & Cambray, 1997).…”

“…Physical processes such as volcanism, block faulting, and glaciations have long shaped and altered drainage patterns in western North America, influencing habitat connectivity and thus the genetic structure of numerous aquatic taxa (Hershler & Sada, 2002;Smith et al, 2002;Hershler, Liu & Sada, 2007;Mock et al, 2010). Isolation following episodes of geological or climatic change has led to genetic divergence among species and genera Liu, Hershler & Clift, 2003;Houston et al, 2010a), although dispersal within and among drainages has also frequently countered the effects of isolation (Kauwe, Evans & Shiozawa, 2004;Liu & Hershler, 2007;Boizard, Magnan & Angers, 2009;Stutz, Shiozawa & Evans, 2010).…”
