We explored fine‐scale patterns of connectivity and symbiont associations across the Ningaloo reefscape to inform on post‐disturbance recovery, larval dispersal capabilities, and recruitment dynamics. We detected low but significant population genetic structure among sample sites spread across Ningaloo Reef with the highest diversity in southern sites.

Metabolome shift associated with thermal stress in coral holobionts [PDF]
SummaryCoral reef systems are under global threat due to warming and acidifying oceans1. Understanding the response of the coral holobiont to environmental change is crucial to aid conservation efforts. The most pressing problem is “coral bleaching”, usually precipitated by prolonged thermal stress that disrupts the algal symbiosis sustaining the ...

Cultivating the macroalgal holobiont: effects of integrated multi-trophic aquaculture on the microbiome of Ulva rigida (chlorophyta) [PDF]
Ulva is a ubiquitous macroalgal genus of commercial interest. Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) systems promise large-scale production of macroalgae due to their high productivity and environmental sustainability.

Acute Heat Priming Dampens Gene Expression Response to Thermal Stress in a Widespread Acropora Coral
(a) Experimental design. Corals from 10 genotypes were distributed across two experimental blocks, each containing nine flow‐through tanks. Fragments from five genotypes were placed in each tank. (b) Temperature profiles and sampling time points in the heat stress assay, demonstrating ramp up from control conditions (27ºC, MMM) to the preconditioning ...

Environmental conditions are known to influence corals and their associated communities of microorganisms. However, our insights into the impacts of seasonal changes in ultraviolet radiation (UVR) on both coral physiology and microbiome remain very ...

Microbial communities and bioactive compounds in marine sponges of the family Irciniidae-a review [PDF]
Marine sponges harbour complex microbial communities of ecological and biotechnological importance. Here, we propose the application of the widespread sponge family Irciniidae as an appropriate model in microbiology and biochemistry research. Half a gram

Abstract Scleractinian coral evolved under nitrogen (N)‐limited conditions. The increase in N flux from anthropogenic activities to these otherwise N‐depleted environments is threatening coral health and coral reef ecosystem function. We tested the effect of elevated ammonium (NH4+) loading on Acropora metabolism responses (respiration, gross primary ...

Host-microbiota interactions: holobiont theory [PDF]
Pojam holobiont opisuje organizam, domaćina, sa svim njegovim pripadajućim mikroorganizmima, mikrobiotom. Mikrobiota utječe na rast, razvoj i zdravlje domaćina.

The Coral Host Microbiome Modulates the Virulence of the Bacterial Pathogen Vibrio coralliilyticus
The coral microbiome has been shown to protect the host (bottom right panel), but dysbiosis can increase susceptibility to infection by the bacterial pathogen Vibrio coralliilyticus. Treatment of Montipora capitata coral with antibiotics induced dysbiosis, which increased infection rates of less pathogenic V. coralliilyticus strains.

Crustose coralline algae promote the survival and growth of coral recruits. However, these positive effects are not linked with the dynamics of the coral microbiome. Results reveal a transfer of opportunistic bacteria shared with all surrounding benthos, rather than a transfer of bacteria from specific algae to corals. ABSTRACT The persistence of coral
