Secondary Metaboliti of Gorgonia, Paramuricea clavata
Gorgonians are important organisms living around coral reefs. They have high abundance and very important ecological role. They can be found in shalow to deep sea. Gorgonians belong to octoral taxon rarely studied either their taxonomy or other aspects. Some studies have informed that gorgonians can produce secondary metabolites as anti-bacteria. These

Hierarchical organisation of the trap in the protocarnivorous plantRoridula gorgonias(Roridulaceae) [PDF]
SUMMARYThe flypaper trap of the protocarnivorous plant Roridula gorgoniasis known to capture various insects, even those having a considerable body size, by using an adhesive, visco-elastic resinous secretion released by glandular trichomes of different dimensions.

Coral Venom and Toxins as Protection Against Crown‐of‐Thorns Sea Star Attack
ABSTRACT Crown‐of‐thorns sea star (CoTS) outbreaks are a main cause of hard coral cover decline across the Indo‐Pacific, posing a major threat to the resilience of coral reefs. However, the drivers underlying CoTS feeding on preferred (e.g., Acropora species) versus non‐preferred (e.g., Porites species) are poorly understood. We hypothesised that coral

Incidence and Spatial Distribution of Caribbean Yellow Band Disease in La Parguera, Puerto Rico
The incidence and spatial distribution patterns of Caribbean Yellow Band Disease (CYBD) on the important frame‐builder coral Montastraea faveolata were assessed by counting, tagging, and mapping all diseased and healthy colonies for one year in each of three 100 m2 quadrats on two inner, mid‐shelf, and shelf‐edge reefs off La Parguera, Puerto Rico ...

Skimming genomes for systematics and DNA barcodes of corals
Bioinformatically pulling UCEs, exons, mitochondrial genomes, and nuclear rRNA genes from genome skimming is a viable and low‐cost option for phylogenetic studies. The mean number of UCE and exon loci extracted from the genome skimming data was 1837 ± 662 SD for octocorals and 1379 ± 476 loci for hexacorals; phylogenetic relationships were well ...

Friend or foe: the association of Labyrinthulomycetes with the Caribbean sea fan Gorgonia ventalina [PDF]
A new syndrome in sea fans Gorgonia ventalina consisting of multifocal purple spots (MFPS) has been observed in the Caribbean Sea. Surveys of MFPS on sea fans were conducted from 2006 to 2010 at a shallow and deep site in La Parguera, Puerto Rico (PR).

Changes in the microbial communities associated with Gorgonia ventalina during aspergillosis infection [PDF]
The surface mucopolysaccharide layer (SML) secreted by corals is a rich environment where bacteria live and proliferate, with population levels often being several orders of magnitude higher than in the surrounding waters (at least for culturable microbes). Some studies have suggested that these communities play an important role in energy and nutrient
