Growth of abalone (Haliotis discus hannai) in cages using epibiont control measures
Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2021 In this study, the relationship between the growth of abalone and the presence of epibionts was investigated in abalone cultured in Goheung, Jeollanam-do, where there are severe problems high water temperatures and

Environmental Breviatea harbour mutualistic Arcobacter epibionts [PDF]
Nature, 2016 Breviatea form a lineage of free living, unicellular protists, distantly related to animals and fungi. This lineage emerged almost one billion years ago, when the oceanic oxygen content was low, and extant Breviatea have evolved or retained an anaerobic lifestyle. Here we report the cultivation of Lenisia limosa, gen. et sp.

The Role of Invasion Status and Taxon of Basibionts in Marine Community Structure
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Studies on non-native epibionts typically focus on the organismal-level impacts of epibiosis on basibionts, rather than community-level impacts of this relationship.

Diatom Diversity on the Skin of Frozen Historic Loggerhead Sea Turtle Specimens
Diversity, 2020 In recent years, biofilm-forming diatoms have received increased attention as sea turtle epibionts. However, most of the research has focused on carapace-associated taxa and communities, while less is known about diatoms growing on sea turtle skin.

Spatial distribution of epibionts on olive ridley sea turtles at Playa Ostional, Costa Rica.
PLoS ONE, 2019 There is a wealth of published information on the epibiont communities of sea turtles, yet many of these studies have exclusively sampled epibionts found only on the carapace.

Biogeography, Evolution, and Diversity of Epibionts in Phototrophic Consortia [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2004 ABSTRACTMotile phototrophic consortia are highly regular associations in which numerous cells of green sulfur bacteria surround a flagellated colorless β-proteobacterium in the center. To date, seven different morphological types of such consortia have been described. In addition, two immotile associations involving green sulfur bacteria are known.

Hydrodynamic Interactions Between Macroalgae and Their Epibionts
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Macroalgae provide surfaces where other organisms live. Unlike organisms on rigid substrata, epibionts on host macroalgae sit on flexible surfaces that bend, stretch, and move in turbulent water currents and waves. We used blade-like red algae,Mazzaella splendens, and encrusting bryozoans,Membranipora membranacea, to investigate the biomechanical and ...

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2020 In recent years, ornamental shrimps gained increasing popularity in the aquarium trade. Unfortunately, they are potential vectors of epibionts, which may be unintentionally introduced to aquaria with imported shrimps. This contribution presents the first
