Holobiont Diversity in a Reef-Building Coral over Its Entire Depth Range in the Mesophotic Zone

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Mesophotic reef-building coral communities (~30–120 m depth) remain largely unexplored, despite representing roughly three-quarters of the overall depth range at which tropical coral reef ecosystems occur.

Generating viral metagenomes from the coral holobiont

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Reef-building corals comprise multipartite symbioses where the cnidarian animal is host to an array of eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms, and the viruses that infect them. These viruses are critical elements of the coral holobiont, serving not only as

On the importance of the microbiome and pathobiome in coral health and disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The term “microbiome” was first coined in 1988 and given the definition of a characteristic microbial community occupying a reasonably well defined habitat which has distinct physio-chemical properties.

Yanomami skin microbiome complexity challenges prevailing concepts of healthy skin

open access: yesNature Communications
The adult skin microbiome typically exhibits low microbial complexity, particularly on sebaceous sites, where lipophilic Cutibacterium and Malassezia spp. predominate.

Exposure of the Host-Associated Microbiome to Nutrient-Rich Conditions May Lead to Dysbiosis and Disease Development—an Evolutionary Perspective

open access: yesmBio, 2019
Inflammatory diseases, such as inflammatory bowel diseases, are dramatically increasing worldwide, but an understanding of the underlying factors is lacking. We here present an ecoevolutionary perspective on the emergence of inflammatory diseases.

Host and Symbionts in Pocillopora damicornis Larvae Display Different Transcriptomic Responses to Ocean Acidification and Warming

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2018
As global ocean change progresses, reef-building corals and their early life history stages will rely on physiological plasticity to tolerate new environmental conditions.

Estimating potential for adaption of corals to climate warming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
University of Technology, Sydney. Faculty of Science.Open AccessClimate models predict rapidly warming oceans throughout the 21st century along with increased mortalities in reef-building coral-algal symbioses.

Viral and Bacterial Epibionts in Thermally-Stressed Corals

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2015
The periodic rise in seawater temperature is one of the main environmental determinants of coral bleaching. However, the direct incidence of these episodic thermal anomalies on coral-associated microbiota and their subsequent effects on coral health are ...

Bacterial peptidoglycan levels have brain area, time of day, and sleep loss-induced fluctuations

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
Sleep-inducing bacterial cell wall components isolated from brain and urine of sleep deprived animals were identified as peptidoglycan (PG) and muropeptides in the 1980s.

Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria: Context, Mechanisms of Action, and Roadmap to Commercialization of Biostimulants for Sustainable Agriculture

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Microbes of the phytomicrobiome are associated with every plant tissue and, in combination with the plant form the holobiont. Plants regulate the composition and activity of their associated bacterial community carefully.
