Insights into the Synthesis, Secretion and Curing of Barnacle Cyprid Adhesive via Transcriptomic and Proteomic Analyses of the Cement Gland

Marine Drugs, 2020
Barnacles represent one of the model organisms used for antifouling research, however, knowledge regarding the molecular mechanisms underlying barnacle cyprid cementation is relatively scarce.

Phylogeny and adaptative evolution to chemosynthetic habitat in barnacle (Cirripedia: Thoracica) revealed by mitogenomes

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Thoracican barnacles represent a unique group that has evolved in parallel identical somatotype s (sessile, stalked and asymmetric) in both normal and chemosynthetic environments.

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.

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.

Predation danger can explain changes in timing of migration: the case of the Barnacle goose

, 2010
Understanding stopover decisions of long-distance migratory birds is crucial for conservation and management of these species along their migratory flyway. Recently, an increasing number of Barnacle geese breeding in the Russian Arctic have delayed their

Darwin and barnacles

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 .

Spatial Variation in Thermal Stress Experienced by Barnacles on Rocky Shores: The Interplay Between Geographic Variation, Tidal Cycles and Microhabitat Temperatures

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Thermal stress is an important driver of species’ distribution in the intertidal zone and, with the forecasted increasing frequency of extreme high temperatures associated with climate change, is likely to play an even greater role in the future.

Natural glues and fouling management by interfering with glue curing

Journal of Agricultural and Marine Sciences, 2015
Multidisciplinary approaches and modern technology provide insights to glue curing that are stimulatingand controversial. Our team applies classic and modern theory and techniques to the study of barnacle glue.

Oyster and Barnacle Recruitment Dynamics on and Near a Natural Reef in China: Implications for Oyster Reef Restoration

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Oysters and barnacles are dominant inhabitants of natural and restored oyster reefs around the world, and high areal coverage of barnacles at natural or restored reefs commonly decreases substrate accessibility for oyster settlement.
