Temperatures are rising and invasive species are becoming more prevalent. This project aims to understand how climate change and hybridisation between exotic and native marine species leads to rapid adaptation. Using integrative approaches from genomics and physiology and focusing on Australian blue mussels, this proposal will test leading hypotheses about how climate change and hybridisation can enable rapid adaptation and the spread of exotic species. Outcomes will include strategies for minimising impacts of invasive mussels and boosting warm-temperature adaptation in aquaculture mussels and restored shellfish reefs. This project will yield fundamental insights into how marine species can quickly adapt to warming seas.

温度正在上升，入侵物种越来越普遍。该项目旨在了解外来海洋物种和原生海种之间的气候变化和杂交如何导致快速适应。该提案使用基因组学和生理学的综合方法，并专注于澳大利亚蓝贻贝，将检验有关气候变化和杂交如何能够快速适应和外来物种的传播的主要假设。结果将包括最大程度地减少入侵性贻贝的影响的策略，并在水产养殖贻贝和恢复的贝类珊瑚礁中促进温暖的适应性。该项目将对海洋物种如何迅速适应变暖的海洋产生基本见解。
