Ageing Deep-Sea Black Coral Bathypathes patula
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Deep-sea corals are a highly diverse group of marine organisms, several of which are characterised by slow growth and extreme longevity up to thousands of years.

Marine Drugs, 2023 Black band disease is a globally distributed and easily recognizable coral disease. Despite years of study, the etiology of this coral disease, which impacts dozens of stony coral species, is not completely understood.

New Metrics to Probe the Dynamical State of Galaxy Clusters
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present new diagnostic metrics to probe the dynamical state of galaxy clusters. These novel metrics rely on the computation of the power spectra of the matter and gas distributions and their cross-correlation derived from cluster observations.

Bathymetric evolution of black corals through deep time
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2023 Deep-sea lineages are generally thought to arise from shallow-water ancestors, but this hypothesis is based on a relatively small number of taxonomic groups. Anthozoans, which include corals and sea anemones, are significant contributors to the faunal diversity of the deep sea, but the timing and mechanisms of their invasion into this biome remain ...

Bacterial Community Associated with Black Band Disease in Corals [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2004 ABSTRACT Black band disease (BBD) is a virulent polymicrobial disease primarily affecting massive-framework-building species of scleractinian corals. While it has been well established that the BBD bacterial mat is dominated by a cyanobacterium, the quantitative composition of the BBD bacterial mat community has not described ...

Comparative Metagenomics of the Polymicrobial Black Band Disease of Corals [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Black Band Disease (BBD), the destructive microbial consortium dominated by the cyanobacterium Roseofilum reptotaenium, affects corals worldwide. While the taxonomic composition of BBD consortia has been well-characterized, substantially less is known about its functional repertoire. We sequenced the metagenomes of Caribbean and Pacific black band mats

Investigation into the Presence of Symbiodiniaceae in Antipatharians (Black Corals) [PDF]
Oceans, 2021 Here, we report a new broad approach to investigating the presence and density of Symbiodiniaceae cells in corals of the order Antipatharia subclass Hexacorallia, commonly known as black corals. Antipatharians are understudied ecosystem engineers of shallow (<30 m depth), mesophotic (30–150 m) and deep-sea (>200 m) reefs.

Nuclear eDNA metabarcoding primers for anthozoan coral biodiversity assessment [PDF]
PeerJThe distributions of anthozoan corals are undercharacterized due to their wide bathymetric ranges, occurrences in remote locales, and difficulties of identification from morphology alone.
