Roles of bacterial community composition in biofilms as a mediator for larval settlement of three marine invertebrates (2005, background): “It is also uncertain whether the commonly observed bacterial cell density dependent larval settlement was mediated by the total bacterial population or one or a few inductive bacterial species (Hadfield et al. 1994, Beckmann et al. 1999, Huang & Hadfield 2003, the present study).”
A contractile injection system stimulates tubeworm metamorphosis by translocating a proteinaceous effector (2019, unknown): “…how bacteria induce animal metamorphosis, we have previously studied the interaction between the tubeworm Hydroides elegans (hereafter Hydroides) and the bacterium Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea (Hadfield et al., 1994; Huang and Hadfield, 2003; Nedved and Hadfield, 2008; Shikuma et al., 2016).”
Larvae of Pocillopora damicornis (Anthozoa) settle and metamorphose in response to surface-biofilm bacteria (2011, background): “The species Pseudoaltero - monas luteoviolacea also induces metamorphosis in the larvae of the polychaete Hydroides elegans (Huang & Hadfield 2003) and the sea urchin Heliocidaris erythrogramma (Huggett et al. 2006).”
