Macrocyclic Trichothecene Production by the Fungus Epibiont of Baccharis Coridifolia [PDF]
Molecules, 2000 Cultures of the fungus epibiont from the herbaceous shrub B. coridifolia yielded four macrocyclic trichothecenes. As these toxins are the same as those found in B.

Ultrasmall epibiont Nanosynbacter lyticus strain TM7x and host bacteria transcriptional activity after initial host parasitism [PDF]
Journal of Oral MicrobiologyBackground Oral Saccharibacteria Nanosynbacter lyticus strain TM7× lives as an ultrasmall epibiont on the surface of its host, Schaalia odontolytica strain XH001. Establishing this interaction is a poorly understood multi-step process. The recovery phase

A survey of epibiont hydrozoans on Sargassum. [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 The brown alga Sargassum provides a natural substrate occupied by hydrozoans in shallow marine waters. A global count in 2007 listed 39 epibiotic species of Hydrozoa growing on Sargassum, but more studies have been published since, therefore, an update is timely, particularly due to the increased abundance of Sargassum in the Caribbean.

A dynamic epibiont community associated with the bone-eating polychaete genus Osedax [PDF]
mBio, 2023 Osedax, the deep-sea annelid found at sunken whalefalls, is known to host Oceanospirillales bacterial endosymbionts intracellularly in specialized roots, which help it feed exclusively on vertebrate bones. Past studies, however, have also made mention of

Living on the Edge: Variation in the Abundance and Demography of a Kelp Forest Epibiont
Diversity, 2019 The ecology of an epibiont may depend not only on the dynamics of its biogenic habitat but also on microclimate variation generated within aggregations of its host, a process called physical ecosystem engineering.
