High bacterial diversity in near-shore and oceanic biofilms and their influence on larval settlement by Hydroides elegans (Polychaeta)
Settlement of many benthic marine invertebrates is stimulated by bacterial biofilms, although it is not known if patterns of settlement reflect microbial communities that are specific to discrete habitats. Here, we characterized the taxonomic and functional gene diversity (16S rRNA gene amplicon and...
