Indirect Effects of Epibiosis on Host Mortality: Seastar Predation on Differently Fouled Mussels [PDF]

Marine Ecology, 1999
In situ experiments were run with the seastar Asterias rubens to investigate the influence of epibiosis on predation preferences. Mussels (Mytilus edulis) monospecifically fouled by different epibiont species (the barnacle Balanus improvisus, the red ...

Effects of epibiosis on consumer–prey interactions [PDF]

Hydrobiologia, 1997
In many benthic communities predators play a crucial role in the population dynamics of their prey. Surface characteristics of the prey are important for recognition and handling by the predator.

A distinctive epibiotic bacterial community on the soft coral Dendronephthya sp. and antibacterial activity of coral tissue extracts suggest a chemical mechanism against bacterial epibiosis.

FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2003
Different bacterial community profiles were observed on the soft coral Dendronephthya sp. and an inanimate reference site using terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of bacterial community DNA.

Associational resistance and shared doom: effects of epibiosis on herbivory [PDF]

Oecologia, 1995
The potential for spatial associations between palatable and unpalatable plant species to reduce herbivore pressure on the palatable species has been described as associational resistance, associational refuge or associational defense for numerous ...

Ecological lever and interface ecology: epibiosis modulates the interactions between host and environment

Biofouling, 2008
The properties of the body surface play a crucial role in most interactions of marine organisms. Critical ecological properties such as drag, morphology, uptake and release of radiation and organic matter are linked to the body surface of an aquatic ...

A bacterial culture-independent method to investigate chemically mediated control of bacterial epibiosis in marine invertebrates by using TRFLP analysis and natural bacterial populations.

FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2004
It has been postulated that a variety of physically undefended marine invertebrates have evolved strategies to control microbial epibiosis chemically.
