The coral-associated Endozoicomonas are dominant bacteria in the coral holobiont. Their relative abundance usually decreases with heat-induced coral bleaching and is proposed to be positively correlated with Symbiodiniaceae abundance.

Hidden Fungal Diversity of the Precious Mediterranean Red Coral Corallium rubrum
This study reveals diverse cultivable fungi associated with the red coral Corallium rubrum, highlighting both potentially beneficial and pathogenic species. These findings emphasize the biotechnological relevance and ecological impact of coral‐associated fungi, especially as climate change may increase disease risks.

Divergent responses of the coral holobiont to deoxygenation and prior environmental stress
Ocean deoxygenation is intensifying globally due to human activities – and is emerging as a grave threat to coral reef ecosystems where it can cause coral bleaching and mass mortality.

Abstract Mounting environmental stressors are driving Caribbean reefs from coral to sponge and macroalgae dominance, necessitating a need for more nuanced metrics of reef metabolism under trophic transitions. Drawing upon four seasonally replicated field campaigns to Curaçao, we reveal highly variable net ecosystem productivity (−243 ± 69 C m−2 day−1 ...

Abstract Cyanobacteria comprise over 6000 species and inhabit diverse environments, including marine invertebrates such as sponges and corals. High‐throughput sequencing has indicated an abundance of Cyanobacteria communities in these hosts, yet taxonomic resolution has remained low below the phylum level.
