Biochemistry of Barnacle Adhesion: An Updated Review
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 Barnacles are notorious marine fouling organisms, whose life cycle initiates with the planktonic larva, followed by the free-swimming cyprid that voluntarily explores, and searches for an appropriate site to settle and metamorphoses into a sessile adult.

Molecular biology of barnacle Balanus improvisus settlement [PDF]
, 2019 The aim of this thesis was to investigate molecular mechanisms of various aspects of barnacle settlement, using the acorn barnacle Balanus improvisus. This barnacle is a common fouling species and a model organism for studies in settlement biology, in ...

Adult Prey Neutralizes Predator Nonconsumptive Limitation of Prey Recruitment.
PLoS ONE, 2016 Recent studies have shown that predator chemical cues can limit prey demographic rates such as recruitment. For instance, barnacle pelagic larvae reduce settlement where predatory dogwhelk cues are detected, thereby limiting benthic recruitment. However,

Transcriptomic analysis of neuropeptides and peptide hormones in the barnacle Balanus amphitrite: evidence of roles in larval settlement. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The barnacle Balanus amphitrite is a globally distributed marine crustacean and has been used as a model species for intertidal ecology and biofouling studies. Its life cycle consists of seven planktonic larval stages followed by a sessile juvenile/adult

Proximate composition of Pekasem/fermented barnacle from Bangka Belitung [PDF]
BIO Web of ConferencesBarnacle is commonly known as biofouling marine organisms attached to hard surface material such as vessels, rocks, wood, and shells. Despite being studied as a biological fouler, some villages in Bangka Belitung Islands Provinces process the barnacle ...

Effect of cirripeds on the recruitment of the keyhole limpet Fissurella picta (Gmelin)
Ciencias Marinas, 1999 Correlation and experimental protocol were used to test the hypothesis that in intertidal and subtidal substrata, the recruitment of the keyhole limpet, Fissurella picta (Gmelin), is determined by the settlement of barnacles.

Comparative analysis of stalked and acorn barnacle adhesive proteomes
Open Biology, 2021 Barnacles interest the scientific community for multiple reasons: their unique evolutionary trajectory, vast diversity and economic impact—as a harvested food source and also as one of the most prolific macroscopic hard biofouling organisms.
