Allelochemical defense against epibiosis in the macroalga Caulerpa racemosa var. turbinata [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology - Progress Series, 2006
The abundance and diversity of microorganisms on the surface of the tropical green macroalga Caulerpa racemosa var. turbinata and the effect of algal surface and waterborne compounds on fouling organisms were investigated both in laboratory and field experiments.

Epibiosis in sedimentary coastal environments: Effects of an introduced barnacle on a native mussel

Marine Ecology, 2021
AbstractIn the mobile sedimentary environment of San Antonio Bay (northern Patagonia), where hard substrate is scarce, the mussel Brachidontes rodriguezii dominates the intertidal zone, there being covered by the introduced epibiotic barnacle Balanus glandula. The aim of this study was to evaluate the distribution and the recruitment of B.

Bacterial epibiosis on Bahamian and Pacific ascidians

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 1995
Interactions between epibiotic bacteria and organisms possibly play a central role in marine ecology. Despite its potential significance, this held has long time been neglected. For most aquatic taxa nothing is known about presence/absence of bacteria on their.

Barnacle settlement on rocky shores: Substratum preference and epibiosis on mussels

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2015
Understanding the dynamics of epibiosis is fundamental to understanding the role of biological interactions in the functioning of marine ecosystems. At many coastal sites, barnacles are abundant as epibionts on the shells of mussels. As they approach the shore, cypris larvae explore the environment, actively seeking suitable settlement sites and ...

Does epibiosis facilitate the invasion success of marine benthic invertebrates?

2023
The theoretical understanding of invasion success is linked to a variety of drivers including enemy release, facilitation, and competitive ability. Within the marine environment, any bare solid substrate is quickly colonised making free‚ÄövÑvp space for settlement a limited resource.

Epibiosis across the Late Devonian biotic crisis: a review

Proceedings of the Geologists' Association, 2013
Abstract Across the Late Devonian biotic crisis, sclerobionts declined in diversity and abundance and the proportions of brachiopod shell textures changed radically. Most of the major sclerobiont clades were common to Givetian through Mississippian ecosystems.

Marine Epibiosis: Concepts, Ecological Consequences and Host Defence

2008
The sessile mode of life is widespread in a variety of marine phyla. Sessile life requires a stable substratum. On the benthos, motile life stages and sessile adults compete for rigid surfaces making non-living, i.e. inanimate, hard substratum a limited resource.

Exploitation of micro refuges and epibiosis: survival strategies of a calcareous sponge

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2016
Sponges interact in various ways with a wide variety of organisms in benthic communities and ecological interactions may influence the distribution, abundance and diversity of these organisms in different sites. Although several studies have already been developed for Demospongiae, knowledge of ecological interactions in the class Calcarea is lacking ...

Possible controls of epibiosis in the sponge : mycale adhaerens

2014
It has long been suggested that marine sponges have evolved defensive mechanisms to control epibiosis i.e. colonization of body surfaces by other organisms. The main goal of this thesis research was to investigate the potential controls of epibiosis in the sponge Mycale adhaerens, and the focuses of this study were on: 1) how larval settlement of the ...

Viviendo en condominio: las macroalgas y la epibiosis en los ambientes marinos

Cymbella Revista de investigación y difusión sobre algas
La epibiosis es una interacción ecológica importante en los ambientes marinos, se presenta entre distintos grupos de organismos donde destacan las macroalgas, las cuales se han encontrado siendo sustratos, o colonizando a otros seres vivos ya sea heterótrofos o autótrofos.
