    The cost and benefits in an unusual symbiosis: experimental evidence that bitterling fish (Rhodeus sericeus) are parasites of unionid mussels in Europe

  • Original language description

    We investigated the nature of the relationship between European bitterling (Rhodeus sericeus), a freshwater fish, and unionid mussels that are used by R. sericeus for oviposition. The growth rate of the European mussel, Unio pictorum, that were heavily infected with R. sericeus embryos was significantly lower than a control group of U. pictorum that hosted low numbers of bitterling embryos. This effect persisted throughout the entire season of mussel growth. In contrast, we detected no reduction in thegrowth rates of Anodonta woodiana, an Asian species of mussel with a long evolutionary history with bitterling, when exposed to R. sericeus embryos. A. woodiana appeared to escape a growth cost by ejecting R. sericeus embryos prematurely.

    Výdaje a přínos v neobvyklé symbioze: experimentální důkaz že hořavka duhová je parazit evropských škeblí

  • Czech description

    Sledovali jsme vztah mezi hořavkou duhovou (Rhodeus sericeus) a velevruby, které hořavka využívá pro kladení jiker. Růst velevrubů Unio pictorum, kteří obsahovli vysoký počet embryí hořavky, byl významně nižší než u kontrolní skupiny, která obsahovala nízký počet embryí. Tento efekt přetrval po celou dobu experimentu. Oproti tomu k žádné redukci růstu nedošlo u asijské škeble Anodonta woodiana, která má dlouhou evoluční historii s hořavkami, a to tím že hořavčí embrya odvrhla.
