      description => protected'Human activities have facilitated the invasion of freshwater ecosystems by v
         arious organisms. Especially, invasive bivalves such as the quagga mussels, 
         <em>Dreissena bugensis</em>, have the potential to alter ecosystem function 
         as they heavily affect the food web. Quagga mussels occur in high abundance,
          have a high filtration rate, quickly spread within and between waterbodies 
         via pelagic larvae, and colonize various substrates. They have invaded vario
         us waterbodies across the Northern Hemisphere. In Central Europe, they have 
         invaded multiple large and deep perialpine lakes with first recordings in La
         ke Geneva in 2015 and 2016 in Lake Constance. In the deep perialpine lakes, 
         quagga mussels quickly colonized the littoral zone but are also abundant dee
         per (&gt;80 m), where they are often thinner and brighter shelled. We anal
         ysed 675 quagga mussels using ddRAD sequencing to gain in-depth insights int
         o the genetic population structure of quagga mussels across Central European
          lakes and across various sites and depth habitats in Lake Constance. We rev
         ealed substantial genetic differentiation amongst quagga mussel populations 
         from three unconnected lakes, and all populations showed high genetic divers
         ity and effective population size. In Lake Constance, we detected no genetic
          differentiation amongst quagga mussels sampled across different sites and d
         epth habitats. We also did not identify any convincing candidate loci eviden
         tial for adaptation along a depth gradient and a transplant experiment showe
         d no indications of local adaptation to living in the deep based on investig
         ating growth and survival. Hence, the shallow-water and the deep-water morph
         otypes seem to be a result of phenotypic plasticity rather than local adapta
         tion to depth. In conclusion, our ddRAD approach revealed insight into the e
         stablishment of genetically distinct quagga mussel populations in three peri
         alpine lakes and suggests that phenotypic plasticity and life history traits

      description => protected'Quagga mussels have expanded their range across the northern hemisphere in r
         ecent decades owing to their dispersal abilities, prolific reproduction rate
         s, and broad ecological tolerances. Their remarkable capacity to filter part
         iculates from the water column has had profound effects on inland aquatic ec
         osystems. In the North American Great Lakes, quagga mussel populations have 
         increased inexorably since the late 1980's, but it remains unclear whether q
         uagga mussels will follow a similar trajectory in Europe where they have app
         eared more recently. Here we apply knowledge from a long-term quagga populat
         ion monitoring effort in the North American lakes to predict future quagga p
         opulations in deep European lakes, where quaggas are quickly becoming a cons
         picuous part of the underwater landscape. We predict that quagga mussel biom
         ass in Lakes Biel, Constance, and Geneva may increase by a factor of 9-20 by
          2045. Like in North America, this increase may be characterized by a shift 
         to larger individuals and deeper depths as the population matures. If realiz
         ed, this rapid expansion of quagga mussels would likely drive the largest aq
         uatic ecosystem change in deep European lakes since the eutrophication perio
         d of the mid-20th century.' (1242 chars)

      description => protected'The dreissenids, quagga mussel <em>Dreissena bugensis</em> and zebra mussel 
         <em>D. polymorpha</em>, are invasive freshwater mussels in Europe and North 
         America. These species strongly impact aquatic ecosystems, such as the food 
         web through their high abundance and filtration rate. They spread quickly wi
         thin and between waterbodies, and have the ability to colonize various subst
         rates and depths. The zebra mussel invaded and established in Swiss lakes in
          the 1960s, whereas the quagga mussel was not detected until 2014. We collec
         ted all available data from cantonal as well as local authorities and other 
         institutions to describe the colonization pattern of quagga mussels in peria
         lpine lakes north of the Alps. We also collected data regarding the distribu
         tion of larval stages of the mussels, the so-called veliger larvae. We obser
         ved that in lakes colonized by the quagga mussel, veligers are present the w
         hole year round, whereas they are absent in winter in lakes with only zebra 
         mussels. Additionally, we present detailed information about the invasion an
         d colonization pattern of quagga mussels in Lake Constance. Quagga mussels c
         olonized the lakeshore within a few years (~ 2016-2018), outcompeted zebra m
         ussels, and have reached densities &gt; 5000 ind. m<sup>-2</sup> in the litt
         oral zone, even at 80 m densities above 1000 ind. m<sup>-2</sup> were found 
         at some locations. At the end of the article, we discussed possibilities on 
         how the spread of quagga mussels within and among northern perialpine lakes 
         should be monitored and prevented in the future.' (1568 chars)
