Resumen:
The acute upper lethal temperature (AULT) at different increase rates was evaluated as a useful tool for the design of cheaper and environmentally friendlier control strategies of the invasive bivalve Limnoperna fortunei. Survivorship of 6±2 mm and 20±2 mm mussels acclimated to 12, 23 and 28ºC and subjected to different heating rates (1ºC per 5, 15 and 30 min) was estimated in laboratory. Temperatures required to kill 50 (LT50) and 100% (SM100) of the mussels, and mean death temperature (MDT) varied between 42.2 and 51ºC over 54 experiments. Heating rates significantly (p
