Clearance rates of the great scallop (Pecten maximus) and blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) at low natural seston concentrations (2009, background): “... bivalves to environmental changes have been extensively studied (see reviews by Bayne and Newell 1983; Griffiths and Griffiths 1987; Hawkins and Bayne 1992; Bayne 1998) and it is generally accepted that bivalves actively compensate for large natural variations in both the abundance and compositi”
Tolerance of benthic macrofauna to hypoxia and anoxia in shallow coastal seas: a realistic scenario (2012, background): “A particular species typically filters a certain range of particle sizes (e.g. Ward & Shumway 2004).”
Microplastics in bivalves and their habitat in relation to shellfish aquaculture proximity in coastal British Columbia, Canada (2019, result): “The particles found in both clams and oysters were both smaller in length than the dominant sizes of MPs found in seawater and sediment, indicating a preference for the capture and ingestion of smaller particles in accordance with the feeding strategies of bivalves (Ward & Shumway 2004).”
Quality assessment of the blue mussel (Mytilus edulis): comparison between commercial and wild types. (2014, unknown): “…variations in feeding, fluorescence of particles, environmental factors) could influence the feeding selectivity response in M. edulis and it was demonstrated that small particles (1–4 lm) occasionally serve as dietary compound (Strohmeier et al., 2012; Ward and Shumway, 2004; Newell et al., 1989).”
DIVERSE FEEDING RESPONSES OF FIVE SPECIES OF BIVALVE MOLLUSC WHEN EXPOSED TO THREE SPECIES OF HARMFUL ALGAE (2007, background): “It is possible that there are some relevant, qualitative properties of the harmful-algal cells tested compared with Rhodomonas (Shumway & Cucci 1987; reviewed in Ward & Shumway 2004).”
The ecological role of bivalve shellfish aquaculture in the estuarine environment: A review with application to oyster and clam culture in West Coast (USA) estuaries (2009, background): “…less mobile zooplankton and include both living and non-living material, but most species are generally efficient at retaining material down to 3–5 µm (LeGall et al., 1997; Ward and Shumway, 2004; Prins and Escaravage, 2005; Lehane and Davenport, 2006; Lonsdale et al., 2007; Trottet et al., 2007).”
Trophic level transfer of microplastic: Mytilus edulis (L.) to Carcinus maenas (L.). (2013, background): “10 mm polystyrene microspheres were ingested by polychaetes, bivalves, echinoderms and bryozoans (Ward and Shumway, 2004).”
Plastic contamination in the decapod crustacean Nephrops norvegicus (Linnaeus, 1758). (2011, background): “A study on particle collection showed that filter feeding polychaetes, bivalves, echinoderms and bryozoans will ingest 10 lm polystyrene microspheres (Ward and Shumway, 2004).”
Trophic interactions between two introduced suspension-feeders, Crepidula fornicata and Crassostrea gigas, are influenced by seasonal effects and qualitative selection capacity (2007, unknown): “The impact of suspension-feeders on the seston assemblage will depend not only upon their quantitative filtration ability, but also on their capacity to ingest or reject particles selectively (see review by Ward and Shumway, 2004).”
Microplastic pollution in deep-sea sediments. (2013, background): “Polychaetes, bivalves, echinoderms and copepods will all, in at least one life stage, take up microplastics from the environment (Cole et al., 2013; Graham and Thompson, 2009; Thompson et al., 2004; Ward and Shumway, 2004).”
Stable carbon isotopic composition of Mytilus edulis shells: relation to metabolism, salinity, δ13CDIC and phytoplankton (2006, background): “Particle selection can occur both at the gills (pre-ingestive) and in the gut (post-ingestive) (reviewed in Ward and Shumway, 2004), but using d13C as a tracer deals only with assimilated carbon.”
Variability in particle retention efficiency by the mussel Mytilus edulis (2012, background): “Laboratory studies have suggested that factors in addition to particle size can influence particle capture by bivalves (see review by Ward & Shumway 2004).”
