• Larvae of Pocillopora damicornis (Anthozoa) settle and metamorphose in response to surface-biofilm bacteria (2011, background): “Larvae gain the ability to settle and metamorphose when they become ‘competent,’ which is defined as having the capacity to detect and respond to a specific environmental cue (Hadfield & Paul 2001, Hadfield et al. 2001).”
