In order to evaluate ecological consequences of the long-term presence of metals in aquatic ecosystems, we investigated the filtration rate and survival of zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) during chronic exposure to Cu and Cd. The filtration rate was measured once a week in laboratory experiment

## Abstract The effect of dopamine (DA) on serotonin (5โHT)โinduced spawning in the zebra mussel __Dreissena polymorpha__ (Pallas) was tested. Administration of 1 mM DA with either 0.3 mM or 0.5 mM 5โHT significantly delayed spawning and reduced its intensity in both males and females compared with
## Abstract The serotonin (5โHT) receptor subtype(s) mediating spawning in the zebra mussel, __Dreissena polymorpha__ (Pallas), was investigated by examining the efficacy of specific serotonergic ligands at stimulating or blocking spawning. The receptor profile for spawning stimulation resembled th
## Abstract Oocyte maturation and germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) was induced in zebra mussel (__Dreissena polymorpha__) oocytes by in vivo and in vitro application of serotonin (5โhydroxytryptamine, 5โHT), and in vitro application of 8โhydroxydipropylaminotetralin hydrobromide (8โOHโDPAT, a 5โHT
