Experimental antibiotic treatment identifies potential pathogens of white band disease in the endangered Caribbean coral Acropora cervicornis [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2014 Coral diseases have been increasingly reported over the past few decades and are a major contributor to coral decline worldwide. The Caribbean, in particular, has been noted as a hotspot for coral disease, and the aptly named white syndromes have caused ...

To Understand Coral Disease, Look at Coral Cells
EcoHealth, 2014Diseases threaten corals globally, but 40 years on their causes remain mostly unknown. We hypothesize that inconsistent application of a complete diagnostic approach to coral disease has contributed to this slow progress. We quantified methods used to investigate coral disease in 492 papers published between 1965 and 2013. Field surveys were used in 65%

Microbial disease and the coral holobiont
Trends in Microbiology, 2009Tropical coral reefs harbour a reservoir of enormous biodiversity that is increasingly threatened by direct human activities and indirect global climate shifts. Emerging coral diseases are one serious threat implicated in extensive reef deterioration through disruption of the integrity of the coral holobiont - a complex symbiosis between the coral ...

Nature, 1975
WE report here diseases of reef corals that seem to be associated with bacterial infection. On reefs around Bermuda, where our field work was carried out in the summer of 1973, the most commonly affected species are the brain corals Diploria labyrintheformis and D. strigosa (Fig. 1).

Microbial diseases of corals and global warming
Environmental Microbiology, 2002Summary Coral bleaching and other diseases of corals have increased dramatically during the last few decades. As outbreaks of these diseases are highly correlated with increased sea‐water temperature, one of the consequences of global warming will probably be mass destruction of coral reefs. The causative agent(s)

Northern coral triangle coral ciliates diseases and disease prevention: A first record
Journal of Invertebrate PathologyThis study is the first to report ciliate infection on soft corals in the Northern Coral Triangle. Infected Briareum violacea will undergo tissue ulceration and death within a short period of time. This ciliate was identified as Scuticociliatia sp. through 18S rRNA gene identification.

Coral Diseases Cause Reef Decline
Science, 2013There has been a great deal of discussion about the role of bleaching in coral reef degradation worldwide ([ 1 ][1]–[ 3 ][2]), but little focus on the numerous other coral diseases that are also causing substantial declines.

The role of coral diseases in the flattening of a Caribbean Coral Reef over 23 years
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2022Coral diseases acting synergistically with other environmental stressors are a growing problem for Caribbean reefs. Hard coral cover, coral traits, and coral diseases were examined from 1999 to 2021 for Akumal reef, located in the Northern Mexican Caribbean. The 45 recorded coral species were classified into life-history strategies: competitive, stress-

While 40 different coral diseases have been described globally since the first report in 1973, the causative agents for most cases have yet to be identified. In Japan, a total of ten coral diseases, including black band disease, brown band disease, white syndrome, pigmentation response, and growth anomalies have been confirmed in the field by ...

Diseases of Coral Reef Organisms
1997All coral reef organisms are susceptible to diseases, as are terrestrial organisms, but studying these diseases can be more difficult and much remains to be learned. Although health impairments of corals were first recognized only in the early 1970s, increasing numbers of infectious and non-infectious diseases, causing morbidity and mortality in ...
