Genetics and ecosystem effects of the invasive mussel Semimytilus algosus, on the West Coast of South Africa
Invasive species can radically affect community composition and ecosystem processes, and human traffic has accelerated their spread. On the South African coast, 86 invasive species have been recorded, although until recently only the Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis and the barnacle Ba...
