Fig. 1

This figure summarizes the experimental framework and key findings of the study on Ado-induced settlement of A. amphitrite cyprids. The effects of Ado on cyprid exploratory behavior and the nanomechanical properties of footprints are examined using AFM. Transcriptomic analysis is further employed to uncover the molecular mechanisms underlying Ado-induced settlement.
