Coral Disease and Health Workshop: Coral Histopathology II [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The health and continued existence of coral reef ecosystems are threatened by an increasing array of environmental and anthropogenic impacts. Coral disease is one of the prominent causes of increased mortality among reefs globally, particularly in the ...

Coral disease prevalence estimation and sampling design [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
In the last decades diseases have changed coral communities’ structure and function in reefs worldwide. Studies conducted to evaluate the effect of diseases on corals frequently use modified adaptations of sampling designs that were developed to study ...

Virulence as a Side Effect of Interspecies Interaction in Vibrio Coral Pathogens

open access: yesmBio, 2020
The increase in prevalence and severity of coral disease outbreaks produced by Vibrio pathogens, and related to global warming, has seriously impacted reef-building corals throughout the oceans.

Predictive modeling of coral disease distribution within a reef system. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Diseases often display complex and distinct associations with their environment due to differences in etiology, modes of transmission between hosts, and the shifting balance between pathogen virulence and host resistance.

MECHANISMS OF IMMUNE RESPONSES IN CNIDARIANS

open access: yesActa Biológica Colombiana, 2015
The immune system maintains the integrity of the organisms through a complex network of molecules, cells, and tissues that recognize internal or external antigenic substances to neutralized and eliminate them.

Coral diversity and disease in Mexico [PDF]

open access: yesDiseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2006
Field studies and empirical tests of the 'diversity-disease hypothesis' demonstrate the effects of species richness on disease transmission and severity in plant systems. Yet the converse, i.e. effects of disease on diversity, is rarely considered in either relatively well-studied plant systems or marine ecosystems.

A global synthesis of the current knowledge on the taxonomic and geographic distribution of major coral diseases

open access: yesEnvironmental Advances, 2022
Although knowledge on the diseases affecting corals has been accumulating exponentially since the 2000s, even more effort is required to summarize and guide further investigation. Here, we used the Web of Science database to review 226 studies published,

Coral immunology and resistance to disease [PDF]

open access: yesDiseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2010
Scleractinian corals (phylum Cnidaria, class Anthozoa) have innate immunological responses against infections. Research has recently suggested that corals also possess an adaptive-like immunological repertoire that recognizes specific pathogens and allografts.
