Native predators and exotic prey –an acquired taste? (2009, background): “For example, it is especially difficult for small whitefish to consume larger, more energetically prof itable zebra mussels (Pothoven and Nalepa 2006).”
Changes in Consumption by Alewives and Lake Whitefish after Dreissenid Mussel Invasions in Lakes Michigan and Huron (2008, background): “2005 ; Mohr and Ebener 2005 ; Pothoven and Nalepa 2006 ).”
Recent Changes in Density, Biomass, Recruitment, Size Structure, and Nutritional State of Dreissena Populations in Southern Lake Michigan (2010, background): “Some fish species feed on dreissenids and may derive some benefits (Pothoven and Nalepa 2006; Madenjian et al. 2010), but direct and indirect negative impacts of dreissenids on fish have been widely reported (Mohr and Nalepa 2005; Hondorp et al.”
Transformation of the offshore benthic community in Lake Michigan: recent shift from the native amphipod Diporeia spp. to the invasive mussel Dreissena rostriformis bugensis (2009, background): “For example, large lake whitefish (Coregonis clupeaformis [Mitchill]) are now feeding almost exclusively on D. r. bugensis, when previously these fish fed mostly on Diporeia (Pothoven & Nalepa, 2006).”
