Geographical variations in bacterial communities associated with soft coral Scleronephthya gracillimum.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Environmental impacts can alter relationships between a coral and its symbiotic microbial community. Furthermore, changes in the microbial community associated with increased seawater temperatures can cause opportunistic infections, coral disease and ...

Dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) metabolism within the coral holobiont

, 2021
Felicity Kuek studied dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) metabolism within the coral holobiont focusing on the role of coral-associated bacteria in the production of DMSP, and the possible functions of its catabolic product, acrylate. She found that coral-associated bacteria are important contributors to the total pool of organic sulphur compounds ...

Sea Urchins Predation Facilitates Coral Invasion in a Marine Reserve [PDF]

, 2011
Macroalgae is the dominant trophic group on Mediterranean infralittoral rocky bottoms, whereas zooxanthellate corals are extremely rare. However, in recent years, the invasive coral Oculina patagonica appears to be increasing its abundance through ...

Water contamination reduces the tolerance of coral larvae to thermal stress [PDF]

, 2010
Coral reefs are highly susceptible to climate change, with elevated sea surface temperatures (SST) posing one of the main threats to coral survival.

Coral bleaching responses in Sodwana Bay, South Africa [PDF]

, 2013
This study assessed the bleaching response (BR) of coral colonies within the central reef complex in Sodwana Bay, South Africa. Bleach surveys were conducted at 16 sites on 8 reefs over the period of 2007 to 2013. A total of 12 858 coral colonies from 30

Microbial dinitrogen fixation in coral holobionts exposed to thermal stress and bleaching

, 2016
Coral holobionts (i.e., coral-algal-prokaryote symbioses) exhibit dissimilar thermal sensitivities that may determine which coral species will adapt to global warming.

Bacterial regulation of coral larval metamorphosis and settlement in Pocillopora damicornis

Communications Biology
Bacteria play a significant role in triggering coral larval metamorphosis and settlement in many coral species. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms behind coral larval metamorphosis and settlement triggered by bacteria remain enigmatic. Thus, we

Global gradients of coral exposure to environmental stresses and implications for local management [PDF]

, 2011
Background: The decline of coral reefs globally underscores the need for a spatial assessment of their exposure to multiple environmental stressors to estimate vulnerability and evaluate potential counter-measures.

Seasonal dynamics of Galaxea fascicularis holobiont from physiological to transcriptional responses and implications for natural resilience

Frontiers in Microbiology
Monitoring seasonal changes in coral holobionts throughout the year is essential for understanding coral resilience and symbiotic responses. Previous studies have focused on short-term or specific seasonal changes, limiting their ability to capture ...

DataSheet_3_Sponges on shifting reefs: holobionts show similar molecular and physiological responses to coral versus macroalgal food.pdf

IntroductionMany coral reefs witness an ongoing coral-to-algae phase shift. Corals and algae release large quantities of (in)organic nutrients daily, of which a large part is utilized by sponges.
