The ReFuGe 2020 consortium - Using ‘omics’ approaches to explore the adaptability and resilience of coral holobionts to environmental change

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
Human-induced environmental changes have been linked directly with loss of biodiversity. Coral reefs, which have been severely impacted by anthropogenic activities over the last few decades, exemplify this global problem and provide an opportunity to ...

Acute Heat Priming Dampens Gene Expression Response to Thermal Stress in a Widespread Acropora Coral

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
(a) Experimental design. Corals from 10 genotypes were distributed across two experimental blocks, each containing nine flow‐through tanks. Fragments from five genotypes were placed in each tank. (b) Temperature profiles and sampling time points in the heat stress assay, demonstrating ramp up from control conditions (27ºC, MMM) to the preconditioning ...

Effects of sample handling and cultivation bias on the specificity of bacterial communities in keratose marine sponges

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Complex and distinct bacterial communities inhabit marine sponges and are believed to be essential to host survival, but our present-day inability to domesticate sponge symbionts in the laboratory hinders our access to the full metabolic breadth of these

Stoichiometric regulation of nitrogen and carbon fluxes in Acropora coral facing short‐term stress of ammonium loading

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Scleractinian coral evolved under nitrogen (N)‐limited conditions. The increase in N flux from anthropogenic activities to these otherwise N‐depleted environments is threatening coral health and coral reef ecosystem function. We tested the effect of elevated ammonium (NH4+) loading on Acropora metabolism responses (respiration, gross primary ...

Differential responses of bacteria and fungi in the rhizoplane and endosphere of aerial roots of Cissus verticillata

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract All plant organs have the potential to harbor microbial communities and each organ may form unique niches for specialized microbial communities. There have been very few detailed investigations of microbiomes within a single plant organ along different developmental stages.

Modulation of the Eelgrass – Labyrinthula zosterae Interaction Under Predicted Ocean Warming, Salinity Change and Light Limitation

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Marine infectious diseases can have large-scale impacts when they affect foundation species such as seagrasses and corals. Interactions between host and disease, in turn, may be modulated by multiple perturbations associated with global change. A case in

Nitrogen mediates root–fungal effects on European beech biomass but not adaptability to the environment

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
The results reveal low adaptedness but high adaptability among beech seedlings, supporting mixed plantings of local and climate‐matched non‐local populations to strengthen forest resilience. Root‐associated fungi strongly influenced seedling growth through nitrogen uptake, with mycorrhizal fungi having positive effects and saprotrophs negative ones ...

Behavioural microbiomics: a multi-dimensional approach to microbial influence onbehaviour

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The role of microbes as a part of animal systems has historically been an under-appreciated aspect of animal life histories. Recently, evidence has emerged that microbes have wide-ranging influences on animal behaviour.

The Coral Host Microbiome Modulates the Virulence of the Bacterial Pathogen Vibrio coralliilyticus

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 1, January 2026.
The coral microbiome has been shown to protect the host (bottom right panel), but dysbiosis can increase susceptibility to infection by the bacterial pathogen Vibrio coralliilyticus. Treatment of Montipora capitata coral with antibiotics induced dysbiosis, which increased infection rates of less pathogenic V. coralliilyticus strains.
