Comparative genome-centric analysis reveals seasonal variation in the function of coral reef microbiomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Microbially mediated processes contribute to coral reef resilience yet, despite extensive characterisation of microbial community variation following environmental perturbation, the effect on microbiome function is poorly understood.

The Complexity of the Holobiont in the Red Sea Coral Euphyllia paradivisa under Heat Stress

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
The recognition of the microbiota complexity and their role in the evolution of their host is leading to the popularization of the holobiont concept. However, the coral holobiont (host and its microbiota) is still enigmatic and unclear.

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 ...

Multi-Omic Profiling of Melophlus Sponges Reveals Diverse Metabolomic and Microbiome Architectures that Are Non-overlapping with Ecological Neighbors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Marine sponge holobionts, defined as filter-feeding sponge hosts together with their associated microbiomes, are prolific sources of natural products. The inventory of natural products that have been isolated from marine sponges is extensive. Here, using

Sponge-derived matter is assimilated by coral holobionts

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Abstract Coral reef biodiversity is maintained by a complex network of nutrient recycling among organisms. Sponges assimilate nutrients produced by other organisms like coral and algae, releasing them as particulate and dissolved matter, but to date, only a single trophic link between sponge-derived dissolved ...

Localization and symbiotic status of probiotics in the coral holobiont. [PDF]

open access: yesmSystems
ABSTRACT Corals establish symbiotic relationships with microorganisms, especially endosymbiotic photosynthetic algae. Although other microbes have been commonly detected in coral tissues, their identity and beneficial functions for their host are unclear. Here, we confirm the beneficial outcomes of the

Understanding nitrogen dynamics in coral holobionts: comprehensive review of processes, advancements, gaps, and future directions

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Coral reefs are known for being highly productive ecosystems in oligotrophic oceans, which is commonly referred to as the Darwin’s Paradox. Nitrogen is an essential component of organisms, but it limits primary productivity in most euphotic ocean ...

Baseline dynamics of Symbiodiniaceae genera and photochemical efficiency in corals from reefs with different thermal histories [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2023
Ocean warming and marine heatwaves induced by climate change are impacting coral reefs globally, leading to coral bleaching and mortality. Yet, coral resistance and resilience to warming are not uniform across reef sites and corals can show inter- and ...

Relative abundance of nitrogen cycling microbes in coral holobionts reflects environmental nitrate availability

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
Recent research suggests that nitrogen (N) cycling microbes are important for coral holobiont functioning. In particular, coral holobionts may acquire bioavailable N via prokaryotic dinitrogen (N2) fixation or remove excess N via denitrification activity.
