Metabolome shift associated with thermal stress in coral holobionts [PDF]

open access: gold, 2020
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 ...

Millennia-old coral holobiont DNA provides insight into future adaptive trajectories. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol, 2022
AbstractAncient DNA (aDNA) has been applied to evolutionary questions across a wide variety of taxa. Here, for the first time, we utilized aDNA from millennia‐old fossil coral fragments to gain new insights into a rapidly declining western Atlantic reef ecosystem.

Urbanization comprehensively impairs biological rhythms in coral holobionts

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2022
AbstractCoral reefs are in global decline due to climate change and anthropogenic influences (Hughes et al., Conservation Biology, 27: 261–269, 2013). Near coastal cities or other densely populated areas, coral reefs face a range of additional challenges.

Resilience of cold-water coral holobionts to thermal stress

open access: greenProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2021
Cold-water corals are threatened by global warming, especially in the Mediterranean Sea where they live close to their upper known thermal limit (i.e. 13°C), yet their response to rising temperatures is not well known. Here, temperature effects onLophelia pertusaandMadrepora oculataholobionts (i.e.

The roles and interactions of symbiont, host and environment in defining coral fitness. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND: Reef-building corals live in symbiosis with a diverse range of dinoflagellate algae (genus Symbiodinium) that differentially influence the fitness of the coral holobiont.

Coral holobionts and biotechnology: from Blue Economy to coral reef conservation

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Biotechnology, 2022
Corals are of ecological and economic importance, providing habitat for species and contributing to coastal protection, fisheries, and tourism. Their biotechnological potential is also increasingly recognized. Particularly, the production of pharmaceutically interesting compounds by corals and their microbial associates stimulated natural product-based

Consensus Guidelines for Advancing Coral Holobiont Genome and Specimen Voucher Deposition

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Coral research is being ushered into the genomic era. To fully capitalize on the potential discoveries from this genomic revolution, the rapidly increasing number of high-quality genomes requires effective pairing with rigorous taxonomic ...

Full-Length Transcriptomics Reveal the Gene Expression Profiles of Reef-Building Coral Pocillopora damicornis and Symbiont Zooxanthellae

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
Since the last century, episodes of coral reef bleaching and mortality have occurred almost annually in tropical or subtropical seas. When the temperature exceeds the tolerant limit of a coral–zooxanthellae holobiont, it induces physiological stress and ...
