Spatial distribution of parrotfishes and groupers in an Okinawan coral reef: size-related associations in relation to habitat characteristics [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Parrotfishes (Labridae: Scarini) and groupers (Epinephelidae) are important fish groups that are regarded as the fisheries targets of primary importance in coral reefs. In order to establish ecosystem-based management of these two fish groups, clarifying

Discovery and characterization of Hv1-type proton channels in reef-building corals
eLife, 2021 Voltage-dependent proton-permeable channels are membrane proteins mediating a number of important physiological functions. Here we report the presence of a gene encoding Hv1 voltage-dependent, proton-permeable channels in two species of reef-building ...

Two divergent haplogroups of a sacsin-like gene in Acropora corals
Scientific Reports, 2021 Reef-building corals are declining due to environmental changes. Sacsin is a member of the heat shock proteins and has been reported as a candidate protein associated with the stress response in Acropora corals.

New records of coral diseases in the Persian Gulf
Journal of Threatened Taxa, 2019 We report first observations of three coral diseases including black band disease on Acropora, a syndrome resembling yellow band disease and red band disease on Porites colonies from depth 5–6 m at Abu-Musa Island after widespread coral bleaching in the

New recruitment of staghorn corals in the Gulf of Mannar – the emergence of a resilient coral reef
Journal of Threatened Taxa, 2019 Coral Reefs in Gulf of Mannar is degrading with fatser rate due to several environmental stress over the past few decades. Under this severe degredation phase, our work has observed significant coral recruitment at Hare Island and Manoli & Manoliputti ...
