Characterization of Arginine Kinase in the Barnacle Amphibalanus Amphitrite and Its Role in the Larval Settlement

, 2016
Energy metabolism is a key process in larval settlement of barnacles, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain ambiguous. Arginine kinase (AK) mainly participates in energy metabolism in invertebrates.

Response of cyprid specific genes to natural settlement cues in the barnacle Balanus (=Amphibalanus) amphitrite

, 2010
Quantitative real-time PCR was used to further our understanding of the molecular processes involved in the attachment and metamorphosis of larval barnacles.

Investigating the toxicity of Zataria multiflora essential oil on different stages of barnacle larvae of Amphibalanus amphitrite species [PDF]

بوم‌شناسی آبزیان
The life cycle of barnacles usually consists of two stages: the free-swimming larval stage and the stationary stage. Their larval stage has 6 stages. Considering that plant essential oils showed anti-algae properties in previous studies, in this study ...

Molecular mechanisms of the p38 MAPK and nitric oxide pathways underlying larval settlement of amphibalanus amphitrite

, 2015
The barnacle Amphibalanus amphitrite is a model biofouling organism. Recently, the p38 MAPK and NO/cGMP pathways were identified to participate in larval settlement of A. amphitrite. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are still unknown.

Balanus amphitriteorAmphibalanus amphitrite? A note on barnacle nomenclature

Biofouling, 2008
In a recent revision of the Balanidae based on morphological systematics, the much studied fouling species Balanus amphitrite was renamed Amphibalanus amphitrite. Here, the case is made for retaining the former nomenclature. Taxonomists are urged to exercise caution before introducing new formal taxonomies, which should ideally be based on several ...

The GABAergic-like system in the cyprid ofBalanus amphitrite (=Amphibalanus amphitrite)(Cirripedia, Crustacea)

Biofouling, 2009
In the present study, biochemical and immunochemical methods were used to investigate the presence and distribution of GABA, glutamate decarboxylase (GAD), GABA(B)R1 and GABA(A) gamma2 subunit receptors and the vesicular GABA transporter (vGAT) in the cyprid of Balanus amphitrite (=Amphibalanus amphitrite).

NMDA R1 receptor distribution in the cyprid of Balanus amphitrite (=Amphibalanus amphitrite) (Cirripedia, Crustacea)

Neuroscience Letters, 2010
The ontogenetic cycle of the barnacle Balanus amphitrite (=Amphibalanus amphitrite) (Darwin, 1854) includes a cyprid that binds submerged surfaces, metamorphosing into a sessile adult. γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) and GABA receptors have recently been located in its cyprid with a similar pattern to other crustaceans.

Competence and discrimination during cyprid settlement in Amphibalanus amphitrite

International Biodeterioration & Biodegradation, 2012
Abstract Amphibalanus (=Balanus) amphitrite is a tropical/sub-tropical barnacle species which is naturally exposed to sea temperatures of 16–27 °C throughout its larval development. An established technique widely employed by investigators of A. amphitrite settlement involves the storage of cyprids at 4–6 °C prior to their use in bioassays. Our study
