First Report of Potential Coral Disease in the Coral Hatchery of Thailand [PDF]

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
In this study, coral disease was first reported in the coral hatchery in Thailand. Disease were usually found on corals aged two to five years old during the months of November to December of each year. To identify bacterial strains, culture-based methods for strain isolation and molecular techniques of the 16S rRNA gene analysis were used.

Baseline reef health surveys at Bangka Island (North Sulawesi, Indonesia) reveal new threats [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
Worldwide coral reef decline appears to be accompanied by an increase in the spread of hard coral diseases. However, whether this is the result of increased direct and indirect human disturbances and/or an increase in natural stresses remains poorly ...

The role of viruses in coral health and disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2017
Metagenomic and electron microscopy studies confirm that the coral microbiome contains a rich diversity and abundance of viruses. While there have been no definitive tests of disease causation by viruses in corals, viruses have been implicated as coral pathogens in a number of studies.

Status of Coral Health and Disease in Kessilampe Waters, Kendari, South East Sulawesi

open access: yesIlmu Kelautan, 2018
Diseases of coral reef organisms have become a global threat to coral reefs and a major cause of reef deterioration. The presence of coral diseases influence marine resources productivity that interact with coral reefs. The purpose of this research is to

RNA-seq profiles of immune related genes in the staghorn coral Acropora cervicornis infected with white band disease. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Coral diseases are among the most serious threats to coral reefs worldwide, yet most coral diseases remain poorly understood. How the coral host responds to pathogen infection is an area where very little is known.

Satellite SST-Based Coral Disease Outbreak Predictions for the Hawaiian Archipelago

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2016
Predicting wildlife disease risk is essential for effective monitoring and management, especially for geographically expansive ecosystems such as coral reefs in the Hawaiian archipelago.

Thermal Stress and Coral Cover as Drivers of Coral Disease Outbreaks

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2007
Very little is known about how environmental changes such as increasing temperature affect disease dynamics in the ocean, especially at large spatial scales. We asked whether the frequency of warm temperature anomalies is positively related to the frequency of coral disease across 1,500 km of Australia's Great Barrier Reef.

Vibrio zinc-metalloprotease causes photoinactivation of coral endosymbionts and coral tissue lesions.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BackgroundCoral diseases are emerging as a serious threat to coral reefs worldwide. Of nine coral infectious diseases, whose pathogens have been characterized, six are caused by agents from the family Vibrionacae, raising questions as to their origin and
