Natural clusters of golden mussels (Limnoperna fortunei) were sampled in January 2005, in four stations of the Jacuí River Delta (Garças Creek (DAG) and Jacuí Channel (DCJ)) and Guaiba Lake (Veludo beach (GPV) and Pombas Pier (GPP)), in Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. Measurements of the length and humid weight of 180 collected specimens were tested based on Kruskal-Wallis (α = 0.05) followed by the SNK test of significance for the different populations. This test did not show any significant differences between stations GPV and GPP for the length (p = 0.247) or humid weight (p = 0.912). However, differences were found between DAG and DCJ for these parameters, which also differed from those found for other stations (p < 0.001). Environmental characteristics (water current, food support, etc.) and the effects of predation possibly have some influence on the differences among populations found in this study. |
