Probing the settlement signals ofAmphibalanus amphitrite

open access: yesBiofouling, 2018
To achieve their reproductive potential, barnacles combine tactile exploration of surface structural properties and integration of cellular signals originating from their antennular sensory setae within a developmentally defined, temporally narrow window of settlement opportunity.

Effects of ocean acidification over the life history of the barnacle Amphibalanus amphitrite [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology - Progress Series, 2009
Increased levels of atmospheric CO2 are anticipated to cause decreased seawater pH. Despite the fact that calcified marine invertebrates are particularly susceptible to acidification, bar- nacles have received little attention. We examined larval condition, cyprid size, cyprid attachment and metamorphosis, juvenile to adult growth, shell calcium ...

Larval metamorphosis of the barnacle Amphibalanus amphitrite under mono and mixed algal diet [PDF]

open access: yesبوم‌شناسی آبزیان, 2015
Barnacles are one of the dominant macrofouling organisms found in the intertidal region throughout the word. In this study, the effects of mono and mixed algal diet (Chaetoceros calcitrans, C.

A standardization of Amphibalanus (Balanus) amphitrite (Crustacea, Cirripedia) larval bioassay for ecotoxicological studies

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2012
A series of 10 intra-laboratory bioassays and an inter-laboratory assay involving nine laboratories, were performed to validate the use of Amphibalanus amphitrite larvae as test organisms for ecotoxicological studies. The standardization protocol utilized Cadmium Nitrate as a reference toxicant and larval immobilization (after 24 and 48 h) as the end ...

Mode of action of antifouling compound albofungin in inhibiting barnacle larval settlement

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Marine biofouling causes huge economic losses to the marine industry every year. Albofungin is a potential antifoulant showing strong anti-macrofouling activities against larval settlement of major fouling organisms.

Why Are Barnacles Common on Intertidal Rocks but Rare in Rock Pools? Effect of Water Temperature, Salinity, and Continuous Submergence on Barnacle Survival in Indian Ocean Rock Pools

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Barnacles are less common in rock pools of the rocky intertidal zone than on open rock surfaces adjacent to those pools. Rock pools on the Andaman coastlines of Thailand showed diurnal variations in water temperature, salinity, pH, and dissolved oxygen ...

Experimental accumulation of microplastics in acorn barnacle Amphibalanus amphitrite and its use in estimating microplastic concentration in coastal waters

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Microplastic (MP) pollution has been an emerging problem in the marine environment over the last few decades. Considering wide-ranging negative impacts of MPs on marine organisms, monitoring MP pollution in marine ecosystems is essential and urgent for ...

Effective Synthesis and Antifouling Activity of Dolastatin 16 Derivatives

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2022
Some derivatives of dolastatin 16, a depsipeptide natural product first obtained from the sea hare Dolabella auricularia, were synthesized through second-generation synthesis of two unusual amino acids, dolaphenvaline and dolamethylleuine.

Amphibalanus amphitrite

open access: yes, 2023
Specimens of Amphibalanus amphitrite were collected from nine locations along the PG and the GO (Table 1, Fig. 1). In total, 94 individuals were collected from both artificial substrata (e.g., humanmade structures, piers, small vessel hulls and floating objects) and natural habitats (e.g., intertidal rocks, mollusk shells, crab carapaces and mangrove ...
