An Investigation into the Genetic History of Japanese Populations of Three Starfish, Acanthaster planci, Linckia laevigata, and Asterias amurensis, Based on Complete Mitochondrial DNA Sequences

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
Crown-of-thorns starfish, Acanthaster planci (COTS), are common in coral reefs of Indo-Pacific Ocean. Since they are highly fecund predators of corals, periodic outbreaks of COTS cause substantial loss of healthy coral reefs. Using complete mitochondrial

Bacterial Diversity and Community Composition in the Pyloric Ceca of Acanthaster solaris in the Xisha Islands

Redai dili
Crown-of-Thorns Starfish (CoTS) are natural enemies of corals. Periodic outbreaks of CoTS and substantial feeding on corals lead to the degradation of coral reefs among the Indo-Pacific Ocean. Symbiotic bacteria play an important role in the development,

Quantifying public support for culling crown‐of‐thorns starfish (Acanthaster spp.) on the Great Barrier Reef

Conservation Science and Practice
Population surges of crown‐of‐thorns starfish (COTS) (Acanthaster spp.) are a leading cause of coral cover loss on Australia's Great Barrier Reef (GBR). While COTS culling has been undertaken since 2012 little is known about how the public perceive COTS ...
