Modulation of digestive physiology and biochemistry in Mytilus californianus in response to feeding level acclimation and microhabitat

The intertidal mussel Mytilus californianus is a critical foundation species that is exposed to fluctuations in the environment along tidal- and wave-exposure gradients. We investigated feeding and digestion in mussels under laboratory conditions and across environmental gradients in the field. We a...
