Abstract: In order to research effects of alginate on biofilm formation of bacterium Pseudoalteromonasmarina and the roles of co-formed biofilm on larval settlement and metamorphosis of larval mussel Mytiluscoruscus, the settlement and metamorphosis of the mussel larvae were investigated on biofilm of P.marina as a control, and the bacterial biofilm containing alginate solution at final concentration of 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mg/L. In addition, the optimal concentration of alginate was selected to compare and analyze the changes in density, thickness and extracellular products of the biofilm. The bacterial density on the biofilms was shown to be increased with the increase in the alginate concentration. There were significantly increase in thickness and extracellular polysaccharide contents of the biofilm at alginate concentration of 0.5 mg/L (P<0.05), and finally increase in biofilm-inducing activities. The findings have positive significance for understanding of the induction mechanism of marine shellfish larval settlement and metamorphosis, and provide theoretical basis for the use of biofilms to improve the success rate of mussel seedlings. The appropriate concentration of alginate is 0.5 mg/L.
