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.

Inside the sponge engine:Metabolic responses of sponge holobionts to dissolved organic matter on changing coral reefs [PDF]
, 2022 Sponge holobionts, consisting of the animal host and its associated microbiota, play a key role in coral reef biogeochemical cycles by feeding on dissolved organic matter (DOM) and recycling it to higher trophic levels.

Conceptualization of the Holobiont Paradigm as It Pertains to Corals [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Corals' obligate association with unicellular dinoflagellates, family Symbiodiniaceae form the foundation of coral reefs. For nearly a century, researchers have delved into understanding the coral-algal mutualism from multiple levels of resolution and perspectives, and the questions and scope have evolved with each iteration of new techniques.
