Discovery and characterization of Hv1-type proton channels in reef-building corals
Voltage-dependent proton-permeable channels are membrane proteins mediating a number of important physiological functions. Here we report the presence of a gene encoding Hv1 voltage-dependent, proton-permeable channels in two species of reef-building ...

Effects of reduced dissolved oxygen concentrations on physiology and fluorescence of hermatypic corals and benthic algae. [PDF]
While shifts from coral to seaweed dominance have become increasingly common on coral reefs and factors triggering these shifts successively identified, the primary mechanisms involved in coral-algae interactions remain unclear. Amongst various potential
