Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 4, Issue 4, December 2025.ABSTRACT Introduction The seed microbiome is essential for plant health, development, and adaptation. Little is known regarding the constituents of seed microbiomes of Africa's indigenous vegetables, which enables the vertical transmission of a specific microbial heritage. Shedding light on this was the focus of the current study.

Relative Diazotroph Abundance in Symbiotic Red Sea Corals Decreases With Water Depth
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 Microbial dinitrogen (N2) fixation (diazotrophy) is a trait critical for coral holobiont functioning. The contribution of N2 fixation to holobiont nitrogen (N) supply likely depends on the ecological niche of the coral holobiont.

Establishing microbial baselines to identify indicators of coral reef health [PDF]
, 2017 Microorganisms make a significant contribution to reef ecosystem health and resilience via their critical role in mediating nutrient transformations, their interactions with macro-organisms and their provision of chemical cues that underpin the ...

Microbiome structure of the fungid coral Ctenactis echinataaligns with environmental differences [PDF]
, 2015 The significance of bacteria for eukaryotic functioning is increasingly recognized. Coral reef ecosystems critically rely on the relationship between coral hosts and their intracellular photosynthetic dinoflagellates, but the role of the associated ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.ABSTRACT Coral reefs around the world are increasingly threatened by rising ocean temperatures, leading to more frequent mass bleaching events. However, some corals, typically found in more thermally variable environments, have demonstrated resilience to thermal stress.

Variability in Microbial Community Composition and Function Between Different Niches Within a Coral Reef [PDF]
, 2016 To explore how microbial community composition and function varies within a coral reef ecosystem, we performed metagenomic sequencing of seawater from four niches across Heron Island Reef, within the Great Barrier Reef.

Adaptive Potential of Intracolonial Genetic Variability in Coral Populations
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.Intracolonial genetic variability (IGV) is key to coral reef resilience but remains underexplored in current coral research. This review compares corals with well‐studied clonal systems like seagrass meadows, discusses methods to detect IGV and estimate the number of potential new genotypes, and advocates incorporating these clonal concepts into coral ...

Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) in Atlantic Salmon Investigated Through a Holo‐Omic Lens
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.In this exploratory study, we integrated 16S rRNA profiling with quantitative genetics to examine the gill microbiota of Atlantic salmon during infection with Neoparamoeba perurans, the causative agent of amoebic gill disease (AGD), treating the microbiota as an extended resistance trait.
