Urbanization comprehensively impairs biological rhythms in coral holobionts. [PDF]
Glob Chang Biol, 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.

Stable and sporadic symbiotic communities of coral and algal holobionts [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2015 Abstract Coral and algal holobionts are assemblages of macroorganisms and microorganisms, including viruses, Bacteria, Archaea, protists and fungi. Despite a decade of research, it remains unclear whether these associations are spatial–temporally stable or species-specific.

Elaborating the molecular characteristics of corals’ different tolerance to environmental stress in Sanya Luhuitou based on multi-omics analysis [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyIntroductionThe resistance to environmental perturbations varies significantly among coral species. Corals are holobionts that are symbiotic with dinoflagellates and microbiomes, which makes their physiological responses to environmental stress complex ...

Resilience of cold-water coral holobionts to thermal stress. [PDF]
Proc Biol Sci, 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.
