Feeding increases the number of offspring but decreases parental investment of Red Sea coral Stylophora pistillata

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Successful reproductive output and recruitment is crucial to coral persistence and recovery following anthropogenic stress. Feeding is known to alter coral physiology and increase resilience to bleaching.

Novel Genetic Diversity Through Somatic Mutations: Fuel for Adaptation of Reef Corals?

open access: yesDiversity, 2011
Adaptation of reef corals to climate change is an issue of much debate, and often viewed as too slow a process to be of relevance over decadal time scales. This notion is based on the long sexual generation times typical for some coral species.

Coral diseases and bleaching on Colombian Caribbean coral reefs

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2015
<span>Desde 1998 el “Sistema Nacional de Monitoreo de Arrecifes Coralinos de Colombia” SIMAC, ha observado la ocurrencia de enfermedades coralinas y blanqueamiento en arrecifes colombianos (estaciones fijas en la Isla de San Andrés, Tayrona, Islas del Rosario, Islas de San Bernardo y Urabá Chocoano).

Bionic Nanostructures Create Mechanical Signals to Mediate the Composite Structural Bone Regeneration Through Multi‐System Regulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the structural and functional characteristics of bone, bionic nanomaterials combined with nanotechnology can more accurately replicate stem cell niches, enabling the design of bone tissue engineering scaffolds with diverse nanoscale properties to promote stem cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation. This precise control over stem

In situ observations of fish associated with coral reefs off Ireland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The abundance and behaviour of fish on and around coral reefs at Twin Mounds and Giant Mounds, carbonate mounds located on the continental shelf off Ireland (600-1100. m), were studied using two Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) dives.

Coral Carbonic Anhydrases: Regulation by Ocean Acidification

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2016
Global change is a major threat to the oceans, as it implies temperature increase and acidification. Ocean acidification (OA) involving decreasing pH and changes in seawater carbonate chemistry challenges the capacity of corals to form their skeletons ...

A global protocol for monitoring of coral bleaching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Coral bleaching and subsequent mortality represent a major threat to the future health and productivity of coral reefs. However a lack of reliable data on occurrence, severity and other characteristics of bleaching events hampers research on the causes ...

Visualization of oxygen distribution patterns caused by coral and algae. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Planar optodes were used to visualize oxygen distribution patterns associated with a coral reef associated green algae (Chaetomorpha sp.) and a hermatypic coral (Favia sp.) separately, as standalone organisms, and placed in close proximity mimicking ...

Decoy DNA Protects Molecular Tension Probes from DNase Degradation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
DNA‐based probes are rapidly degraded by DNases in live‐cell environments, limiting their use. We introduce a decoy DNA strategy, where an excess of unmodified double‐stranded DNA acts as a competitive substrate for DNases, protecting functional DNA probes and significantly extending their stability for long‐term live‐cell studies.
