Thermal tipping points in mediterranean mussel adhesion: molecular mechanisms and mechanical consequences of heatwave on byssus production in Mytilus galloprovincialis

Abstract Prolonged marine heat waves are a major manifestation of climate change, threatening marine biodiversity. Using the Mytilus galloprovincialis mussel as a sentinel organism, we investigated the impact of experimental, prolonged high temperatures as expected in 2050 on byssus-producing organ....
