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.

ANTI-BACTERIAL PROPERTY OF A CORAL-ASSOCIATED BACTERIUM Bacillus sp. AGAINST CORAL PATHOGENIC [PDF]
, 2006 Marine organisms such as corals are frequently colonized by bacteria that may be pathogenic to them. One of the means by which they are able to combat microbial attack is by chemical defense.

Genetic parallels in biomineralization of the calcareous sponge Sycon ciliatum and stony corals
eLifeThe rapid emergence of mineralized structures in diverse animal groups during the late Ediacaran and early Cambrian periods likely resulted from modifications of pre-adapted biomineralization genes inherited from a common ancestor.

The Effects of Anthropogenic Stressors on Reproduction and Recruitment of Corals and Reef Organisms
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018 The persistence of populations of marine organisms depends on the success of the dual processes of reproduction and recruitment. The production of offspring alone is inconsequential unless larvae and propagules can recruit, which often entails a period ...

Transcriptomes and expression profiling of deep-sea corals from the Red Sea provide insight into the biology of azooxanthellate corals [PDF]
, 2017 Despite the importance of deep-sea corals, our current understanding of their ecology and evolution is limited due to difficulties in sampling and studying deep-sea environments.

ATP Supply May Contribute to Light-Enhanced Calcification in Corals More Than Abiotic Mechanisms
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018 Zooxanthellate corals are known to increase calcification rates when exposed to light, a phenomenon called light-enhanced calcification that is believed to be mediated by symbionts' photosynthetic activity.

Estimating Linkages between Redfish and Cold Water Coral on the Norwegian Coast [PDF]
The importance of essential fish habitat in supporting commercial fisheries has received increasing attention in recent years. Bottom trawling is known to cause particularly destructive damage to habitat that is effectively non-renewable, such as cold ...
