Wave action and competitive interaction between the invasive mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis and the indigenous Perna perna in South Africa (2006, background): “This accords with Zardi et al. (2006) who found that M. galloprovincialis has fewer and thinner byssus threads than P. perna.”
Intertidal mussels as ecosystem engineers: their associated invertebrate biodiversity under contrasting wave exposures (2014, background): “Exposed mussel beds experience strong wave forces just outside of the mussel matrix (Zardi et al. 2006) and, in addition, include smaller spaces among the mussels than sheltered beds because mussels from exposed habitats are small (Tam and Scrosati 2014).”
