Transplantation Experiments with Mediterranean Gorgonians [PDF]

open access: goldBijdragen tot de Dierkunde, 1979
Branches of gorgonians belonging to four different Mediterranean species (Eunicella singularis (Esper), Paramuricea clavata (Risso), Corallium rubrum (Linnaeus) and Lophogorgia ceratophyta (Linnaeus)) were transplanted to different habitats by means of three different methods, and survival and growth rates were observed over periods ranging from three ...

Diurnal Activity of Hermatypic Gorgonians [PDF]

open access: bronzeNature, 1967
THE natural food of gorgonians, or any other soft corals, inhabiting coral reefs is unknown, but net photosynthesis to respiration ratios from 2 to 5 have been reported for isolated colonies of five species of Caribbean reef gorgonians in laboratory experiments1,2.

Microbial Regulation in Gorgonian Corals [PDF]

open access: goldMarine Drugs, 2012
Gorgonian corals possess many novel natural products that could potentially mediate coral-bacterial interactions. Since many bacteria use quorum sensing (QS) signals to facilitate colonization of host organisms, regulation of prokaryotic cell-to-cell communication may represent an important bacterial control mechanism. In the present study, we examined

Egg production by colonies of a gorgonian coral [PDF]

open access: bronzeMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2000
Reproductive success, the production and fertilization of gametes, is a key component of fitness. Among many colonial marine invertebrates, the production of gametes by a colony is a function of both gamete production per module (e.g., polyp, zooid) and the number of modules in the colony (i.e., colony size).

A new gorgonian genus from deep-sea Antarctic waters (Octocorallia, Alcyonacea, Plexauridae) [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2006
Mesogligorgia scotiae gen. nov., sp. nov. is described and illustrated from a colony collected in the Scotia Sea, 2,201–2,213 m in depth, on the ANDEEP-I cruise. The new taxon is placed in the family Plexauridae because of: 1) the presence of a horny
