Temporal effect on the abundance and diversity of intertidal rocky shore macroalgae
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2017)
A study of the temporal effect on the abundance and diversity of intertidal rocky shore macroalgae re-vealed that there are ~70 species in the intertidal rocky shore of Anjuna (60 species) and Vagator (52 species) in Goa, ...
Barnacles and their significance in biofouling
(Springer, 2012)
Barnacles are dominant components of the rocky intertidal and macrofouling community. Studies related to their taxonomy, life cycle and attachment mechanisms have received considerable attention in view of the economic and ...
Macrofouling community development at tropical coastal environment (New Mangalore Port, West Coast of India)
(US Office of Naval Research, 1997)
Recruitment of macrofouling community in tropical waters is generalised as an year round phenomenon. Of course localities which are influenced by seasonal variation in fresh water run-off, mainly during monsoon could be ...
Ecology of the wood-boring bivalve Martesia striata (Pholadidae) in Indian waters
(Academic Press, 1999)
Martesia striata is one of the dominant wood-boring organisms found in Indian waters. Incidence of this organism in the Zuari estuary (Goa) was evaluated by exposing wooden panels (Mangifera indica) to the marine environment ...
Barnacle larval destination: piloting possibilities by bacteria and lectin interaction
(Elsevier, 2003)
Modulation of metamorphosis in barnacles in response to cues of biological origin is established. The bacteria associated with the barnacles also have a role in such modulations. We isolated the bacteria, Pseudomonas ...
Association of bacteria with marine invertebrates: Implications for ballast water management
(International Association for Ecology and Health, 2013)
Bacteria associated with plankton are of importance in marine bioinvasions and the implementation of ship’s ballast water treatment technologies. In this study, epibiotic and endobiotic bacteria associated with zooplankton, ...
Picophytoplankton Synechococcus as food for nauplii of Amphibalanus amphitrite and Artemia salina
(2019)
The naupliar forms are important intermediaries between microbial and classical food web as they can efficiently graze on autotrophic picophytoplankton and heterotrophic bacteria in diverse aquatic ecosystems. Current ...
Influence of temperature on the starvation threshold of nauplii of barnacle Balanus amphitrite (Cirripedia: Thoracica)
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2000)
An evaluation of starvation threshold of the newly hatched Balanus amphitrite nauplii (instar, II) has been made at three different temperatures (5, 15 and 25°C). Earlier studies on starvation in crustacean larvae demonstrated ...
Larvae of fouling organisms and macrofouling at New Mangalore Port, west coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1995)
Polychaetes, bryozoans, barnacles and ascidians were the dominant groups in the fouling community at New Mangalore Port. Polychaete and cirripede larvae were encountered throughout the year. Even though bivalve were present ...
Diatoms of the microphytobenthic community: Population structure in a tropical intertidal sand flat
(Springer, 2002)
Temporal and spatial variations were investigated in the viable diatom population of the microphytobenthic community from an intertidal sand flat of a tropical environment. The presence of diatoms to a sediment depth of ...
