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

Marine Pollution as a Trigger of Discoloration Phenomenon in The Hard Coral, Pocillopora Species at The Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea, Egypt: Pathological and Molecular Evidences [PDF]
Hard corals are precious marine creatures that comprise a complex form of symbiosis between symbiont algae and coral holobiont. For decades, corals have been challenged by disastrous events of climatic and anthropogenic etiologies.

Coral diversity and disease in Mexico [PDF]
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.

Coral immunology and resistance to disease [PDF]
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.

Molecular Cartography of a Hawaiian Coral Assemblage
Coral reefs are declining due to multiple factors including overfishing, anthropogenic pollution, and ocean acidification. Diseases affecting corals have increased in recent decades, yet the etiology of nearly all diseases remains poorly understood. Here,

Diseases of scleractinian corals
Coral reefs are critical habitats that support an abundance of marine life while also being economically important to millions of people that rely on reef-based industries such as tourism and fishing to sustain local communities. However, reef ecosystems globally are degrading at alarming rates due to anthropogenic impacts including ocean warming, poor
