Iron (Fe) concentrations in the byssus and soft tissues of the green-lipped mussel Perna viridis (L.): Byssus as an excretion route of Fe and Fe bioavailability in the coastal waters

Iron (Fe) in the marine mussels has been reported to play an important role in the strength of attachment of the mussels since Fe is a major element in the attachment property on the mussel byssus. However, the distribution of Fe in the green-lipped mussel Perna viridis has not been reported in the...
