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.

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,

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.

Metamorphosis in a Silurian barnacle [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2005 Exceptionally preserved fossils from the Wenlock Series (Silurian) of Herefordshire, UK, provide unique evidence of metamorphosis from free-swimming cyprid larva to attached juvenile in a Palaeozoic barnacle. The larva had large brush-like anterior limbs.

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.

Comptes Rendus. Biologies, 2010 In this essay, I discuss the origin of Charles Darwin's interest in cirripedes (barnacles). Indeed, he worked intensively on cirripedes during the years in which he was developing the theory that eventually led to the publication of The Origin of Species .

Acetylcholine Depolarizes Barnacle Photoreceptors [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1985 ABSTRACT A variety of vertebrate and invertebrate sensory cells are known to be sensitive to acetylcholine (ACh), although the purpose of ACh receptors on these cells is not understood. Acetylcholine elicits action potentials from the sensory cell of the crayfish stretch receptor organ, which receives inhibitory but not excitatory ...
