All plants synthesize a suite of several hundred terpenoid compounds with roles that include
phytohormones, protein modification reagents, anti‐oxidants, and more. Different plant …

Fish mucus layers are the main surface of exchange between fish and the environment, and
they possess important biological and ecological functions. Fish mucus research is …

Molluscs comprise the second largest phylum of animals (after arthropods), occurring in
virtually all habitats. Some are commercially important, a few are pests and some carry …

Biological communities are shaped by complex interactions between organisms and their
environment as well as interactions with other species. Humans are rapidly changing the …

Marine environment has demonstrated to be an interesting source of compounds with

There has been significant recent interest in the commercial utilisation of algae based on
their valuable chemical constituents many of which exhibit multiple bioactivities with …

Coralline algae are globally distributed benthic primary producers that secrete calcium
carbonate skeletons. In the context of ocean acidification, they have received much recent …

We review research from the last 40 yr on macroalgal–bacterial interactions. Marine
macroalgae have been challenged throughout their evolution by microorganisms and have …

Marine biofilms are composed of many species of bacteria, unicellular algae, and protozoa.
Biofilms can induce, inhibit, or have no effect on settlement of larvae and spores of algae. In …

There is increasing concern that ocean acidification, caused by the uptake of additional CO2
at the ocean surface, could affect the functioning of marine ecosystems; however, the …
