“…The polymorphic microsatelite loci described in this paper exhibit a number of alleles that ranged from 3 (loci AW 378 and AW28) to 8 (AW 570) in the sample of 27 genotyped individuals. These values are in the same range with the previously published study of this mussel species (Popa et al, 2011).…”

“…The presence of null alleles, large alleles dropout and scoring errors by stuttering, was tested using Micro-Checker ver. 2.2.3 (Van Oosterhout et al, 2004), while linkage disequilibrium tests were carried out using Genepop 4.2 (Raymond and Rousset, 1995).…”

“…However, for the recent and rapid spread of the species across Europe, fast evolving markers, such as DNA microsatellites, are needed to understand important aspects of the population genetics of this invasive species: the route(s) of invasion, the time and number of colonization events, and other details. The first eight microsatellite markers for the species have been described in 2011 (Popa et al, 2011). This number is rather low to infer aspects of the evolutionary history of populations and additional microsatellite loci are needed to increase to power of future genetic studies of this species (Koskinen et al, 2004).…”

“…Stocked fish possessed glochidia, the parasitic larval stage of the unionids. Further spread of the species is believed to be correlated with translocations of their native hosts across Europe (Sarkany-Kiss, 1986). Trade with the host fish species between different countries and regions enabled A. woodiana to penetrate to new regions.…”

“…from the Amur and Yangtze Rivers (Petró, 1984;Sárkány-Kiss, 1986). In Poland, this species first appeared in the early 1980s in the Heated Konin Lakes system (the Kuyavian Lake District, central Poland), to where it was brought with H. molitrix and bighead carp H. nobilis imported from Hungary (Zdanowski, 1996;Soroka et al, 2014). In 2003, live adult individuals were found in the "Dolna Odra" power plant's cooling water (Western Pomerania Region, north-west Poland) (Domagała et al, 2003).…”

The reproductive activity of females of the Chinese pond mussel (Sinanodonta woodiana) was investigated in a European population inhabiting cooling water. The study used histological and stereological methods to determine gonad structure, changes in reproductive follicles during gametogenesis, oocyte development, glochidia structure, and brooding periods. Water in the channel of the "Dolna Odra" power plant did not freeze during the winter, and its mean annual temperature was 18.4°C. The population sex ratio was female biased (χ 2 = 25.70, df = 1, P \ 0.0001). Ovaries in mussels were formed by reproductive follicles. Previtellogenic and vitellogenic oocytes were attached to the follicle wall via the cytoplasmic stalk, and mature ovulated oocytes were present in the follicle lumen. Individuals with mature oocytes in gonads were present over the whole two-year study period, which indicates the continuous activity of gonads. Hooked glochidia had a larval thread. Females incubated the offspring in gill marsupia of outer demibranchs and were characterized by multiple tachytictic brooding periods. All gravid individuals presented mature and spent stages of gonadal development. The study provides the first direct information about the reproductive dynamics of this invasive species outside its original Asiatic range.

The explosive global spread of Sinadonta woodiana, a large‐bodied unionid mussel of East Asian origin, potentially affects the functioning of freshwater habitats and threatens native mussels. Molecular data indicate that its invasion in Europe started with a single colonization event, followed by in situ adaptation. This study traces one of the possible routes of such adaptation. It documents a population of S. woodiana with a known history of a two‐stage introduction: first, from a heated water source to a production fish pond in northern Poland, and subsequently from that pond to the study site. As the latest local transfer occurred more than 15 years before the study, the abundance of young S. woodiana in various age classes provides proof of ongoing in situ reproduction and resolves the question of the ability of S. woodiana to permanently colonize thermally unpolluted water bodies in areas with prolonged and cold winters. The study also shows that translocations of glochidia‐infested fish and/or adult mussels between water bodies in such areas result in the establishment of new self‐recruiting populations. Together, these findings show that further expansion of S. woodiana into colder regions and establishment of new populations in already invaded areas are to be expected. The relative abundance of S. woodiana and the native unionids: Anodonta anatina and A. cygnea was 40%, 18%, and 42%, respectively. S. woodiana contributed to 65% of the total mussel biomass. Individuals in the first three size classes, corresponding to the 2‐ to 4 year age classes, composed 50% of S. woodiana, 37% of A. anatina, and 26% of A. cygnea. The high proportion of young individuals in S. woodiana indicates population trajectories toward a gradually increasing dominance of this species and possibly reflects its negative impacts via interactions with host fish and competition for resources.
