- Bivalve cultures provide habitat for exotic tunicates in southern Brazil. (2009, background): “…represented by S. plicata, comprises very invasive species, such as S. clava which can reach high densities in shellfish cultures (Getchis 2006; Ramsay et al. 2008) Although records of S. plicata in Brazil begin in 1883 (Van Name 1945), evidence suggests that it was introduced in the south…”
- Ascidians as models for studying invasion success (2015, background): “In addition, invasive ascidians compete with cultured species for food by reducing plankton from the water column and space by biofouling in aquaculture facilities (Petersen 2007; Ramsay et al. 2008; Lutz-Collins et al. 2009; Adams et al. 2011; Rius et al. 2011).”
- Predation contributes to invasion resistance of benthic communities against the non-indigenous tunicate Ciona intestinalis (2011, background): “Interspecific competition, therefore, appears to play an important role in the establishment of C. intestinalis in fouling communities (Stachowicz et al. 1999; Blum et al. 2007; Ramsay et al. 2008) but this interaction seems unimportant in benthic communities exposed to natural predation pressure.”
