Abstract
Pomacea canaliculata is one of the most successful invader in worldwide, adversely affecting native ecosystem through direct predation or indirect competition, while the mechanism of indirect effects on native species remain poorly understood. To clarify the effects of P. canaliculata on the native near-niche species, Bellamya purificata, a widespread freshwater gastropod in China, was selected as the research subject. The changes of mortality, histology, antioxidant system as well as the intestinal flora diversity of B. purificata were explored in present study. The results showed that the median lethal dose of P. canaliculata culture solution for B. purificata was 23.76 ind/L and a concentration-dependent damage of both the gonad and hepatopancreas were observed, the gonadal villi were dissolved and the hepatopancreas cells were broken at 20 ind/L. Furthermore, different concentrations of P. canaliculata culture solution leading to the antioxidant damage on the enzyme or non-enzyme systems of B. purificata at various degrees. Additionally, a decrease in the diversity of the intestinal flora was observed, accompanied by an increase in the abundance of pathogenic bacteria such as Pseudomonas and Aeromonas after the exposure of the culture solution of P. canaliculata. Last, after being recovered in freshwater for 24 h, the antioxidant damage of B. purificata and the disturbance of intestinal flora diversity were still not recovered especially in the high concentration group. The indirect competitive mechanism of P. canaliculata culture solution on B. purificata were explored from the aspects of tissue, biochemical level and intestinal flora, which enriched the research of P. canaliculata invasion on native snails in China, and provided new insights for the study of the invasion strategy of P. canaliculata.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Owing to the nonavailability of any clear targets for molluscicides against Pomacea canaliculata, target-based screening strategy cannot be employed. In this study, the molluscicidal effects of typical pesticides on P. canaliculata were evaluated to obtain the molluscicide target. A series of arylpyrrole compounds were synthesized based on the discovered target, and their structure-activity relationships explored. A preliminary strategy for screening molluscicides based on specific targets was also developed. RESULTS A laboratory colony of P. canaliculata was developed, which showed no difference in sensitivity to niclosamide compared with the wild group, while exhibiting a higher stability against pesticide response. Mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase inhibitors and mitochondrial membrane potential uncouplers were identified and validated as potential targets for molluscicide screening against P. canaliculata. A series of arylpyrrole compounds were designed and synthesized. The median lethal concentration of 4-bromo-2-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrrole-3-carbonitrile (Compound 102) was 10-fold lower than that of niclosamide. CONCLUSION New molluscicide targets were discovered and validated, and preliminary strategies were explored for pesticide screening based on these targets. Compound 102 exhibited a high molluscicidal activity and had a great potential value for exploring a molluscicide to control P. canaliculata. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Pomacea canaliculata is one of the most notorious invasive aquatic snail, capable of influencing various aquatic organisms through their secretions. Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri and Propsilocerus akamusi are the most prevalent and powerful bioturbators in aquatic ecosystems. However, the mechanism of P. canaliculata's secretions affecting bioturbators remains unknown. This study aimed to investigate the effects of P. canaliculata's secretion on L. hoffmeisteri and P. akamusi. L. hoffmeisteri and P. akamusi were treated for 24 h with P. canaliculata and the native species Bellamya aeruginosa secretions at different densities (1 or 20). The migration numbers and aggregation rate of L. hoffmeisteri indicated that P. canaliculata secretion caused L. hoffmeisteri to become alert and migrate away from the nucleus community, resulting in poor population identification, especially at high concentrations. Moreover, the antioxidant enzymatic activity, lipid peroxidation, intestinal microbial diversity, and composition of the two bioturbators were analyzed. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration were elevated following P. canaliculata secretion treatment, indicating oxidative damage. Furthermore, the composition and diversity of intestinal microbiota of L. hoffmeisteri and P. akamusi were changed. The abundance of functional microbiota decreased, and pathogenic bacteria such as Aeromonas became dominant in the intestines of both bioturbators. The current research evaluates the effects of P. canaliculata secretion on the behavior, oxidative stress, and intestinal microbial composition and diversity of two bioturbators, providing new insights into the assessment of post-invaded ecosystems.

Histopathological Lesions Caused by a Digenean Trematode in a Pest Apple Snail, Pomacea canaliculata, in Its Native Geographic Distribution Area. Animals (Basel) 2024; 14:1191.

Abstract
Pomacea canaliculata is one of the most dangerous invasive species. Morphological and molecular analyses have revealed that a digenean species belonging to the family Echinostomatidae parasitizes this snail at two sites in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, South America. Molecular results confirmed that the species belongs to a genus closely related to Patagifer. Analysis of the 28S rDNA showed that the sequences of the rediae and metacercariae are identical, indicating that the apple snail acts as the first and second intermediate host. The cercariae may encyst as metacercaria inside the redia and also emerge and re-infect the same snail or another snail. The prevalence of digeneans was higher in one of the sampling locations (15.1% vs. 0.72%), probably because the bird species that acts as the definitive host is more abundant in that area. Histopathological examination showed that the parasite quickly invades multiple host organs (gills, intestines, albumen gland, lung, kidney, and mantle border) besides the gonad and digestive gland, as is usual in digeneans. In addition, the partial or total castration of snails was observed in cases of moderate and high infection intensity. In males, there was loss of integrity in testicular tubules, while in females, the replacement of ovarian tissue by rediae was found.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2021; 220:112393.

Abstract
Previous study found that pedunsaponin A (PA) influenced the cytoskeleton of Pomacea canaliculata hemocytes, leading to depolarization and haemocyte destruction and eventually to snail death. In this study, we analysed the changes in protein expression by iTRAQ-mediated proteomics and identified 51 downregulated proteins. Among these, we focused on proteins related to cytoskeletal function and identified neural Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome isoform X1 (PcnWAS). The full-length PcnWAS gene contains 9791 bp and includes an open reading frame of 1401 bp that encodes 735 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 49.83 kD. PcnWAS exhibited a relatively distant genetic relationship with known species; the closest homologue is Biomphalaria glabrata (57%). RNA interference (RNAi) was adopted to verify the function of PcnWAS after screening the siRNA sequence with an efficiency of 97%. Interference with the gene expression of PcnWAS did not lead to snail death, but the depolarization level increased, which demonstrated that PcnWAS is an important depolarization-related protein. The results of PA treatment of snails subjected to RNAi proved that interfering with PcnWAS gene expression decreased the molluscicidal activity of PA toward P. canaliculata; snail mortality after RNAi was significantly lower (40%) than that in PA-treated snails without RNAi (54%), while the survival rate and depolarization level in haemocytes were not significant, indicating that PcnWAS is only one of the important target proteins of PA in P. canaliculata. This study lays the foundation for further exploration of the molecular mechanism by which PA kills this harmful snail.

Abstract
AbstractThe trophic ecology of the invasive apple snail Pomacea canaliculata was intensely investigated because of the impacts of its grazing on aquatic vegetation, including crops. However, this freshwater snail also gathers food from the water surface by using a pedal funnel, a distinctive trophic behavior called pedal surface collecting. We investigated the diel fluctuations of this trophic behavior through four whole-day field observations in a stream. We recorded the lowest pedal funnel frequencies during light hours and the highest after sunset, a pattern similar to that of general activity. We evaluated through laboratory experiments the influence of water temperature and velocity, photoperiod, and a possible endogenous rhythm on this behavior. Pedal funnels are formed within the whole temperature range in which this snail is active. The highest pedal funnel formation rates were recorded at 30 °C, but the food captured was the same regardless of temperature. Pedal funnels were not observed at water velocities above 0.12 m·s-1, but below this limit the rate and time spent in funnels remained constant with velocity. Despite the time of day, pedal funnels were scarce under constant artificial light, ruling out an endogenous rhythm. Both in the laboratory and in the stream, the highest levels of pedal funnels were observed during dark periods, probably as a strategy to avoid detection by visual predators. Pedal surface collecting on floating matter could represent an additional impact of invasive apple snails on freshwater ecosystems, but it could also be used for the specific delivery of molluscicides against them.

Abstract
The occurrence of the invasive apple snail Pomacea canaliculata in Indonesia was first reported in 1984. The species was introduced as an ornamental aquarium pet. Since then, people have begun to culture the snail in ponds usually adjacent to rice fields. When it was realized that the species multiplied rapidly and was a serious pest, this invasive apple snail had already spread widely. There are many cultural methods of controlling and preventing its distribution, but none are effective in keeping them at non-damaging levels. We mapped the distribution of P. canaliculata in Indonesia from the MZB’s collections as well as literature references and found that the snail invaded almost all large islands, such as Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Maluku, and West Papua. We also studied the impact of P. canaliculata on the native apple snails P. ampullacea, P. scutata, and P. virescens in Lake Rawa Pening (a popular tourism destination) as a case study. The results showed that two species of Pila already disappeared from Lake Rawa Pening. Only P. scutata occurs still in the region and was found alive usually in shallow water and rice fields surrounding the lake. To resolve the problem we recommend that cleaning the lake periodically from the invasive aquatic weed Eichhornia crassipes (known to locals as “eceng gondok”) by a private company and harvesting the weeds for the local small craft industry by the local fishermen could be an alternative measure to reduce the population of the P. canaliculata, as well as collecting P. canaliculata for local food or for feeding ducks. Rearranging the number of fish-pens “karamba” and their location in the lake could be seen as an alternative way also for reducing the population of P. canaliculata, since the snails lay their egg masses on the bamboo stakes of “karamba.” Such rearrangement could make the landscape more attractive for tourism.
