Genomic Resources for Imperiled Caribbean Reef-Forming Corals (Hexacorallia: Scleractinia): Complete Mitochondrial Genomes of <i>Dichocoenia stokesii</i>, <i>Diploria labyrinthiformis</i>, <i>Oculina patagonica</i>, and <i>Stephanocoenia intersepta</i>. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Mitochondrial genomes of imperiled Caribbean corals are sequenced. These genomic resources will support conservation initiatives. ABSTRACT Coral reefs provide a wide variety of services essential to both marine ecosystems and human societies yet reef‐forming corals are currently facing a multitude of global and local environmental stressors.

The Host Coral Bleaching Response Viewed Through the Lens of Multi-Omics: Multi-Omics Provides the Tools to Understand the Complex Molecular Basis of Coral Bleaching, Which Can Aid Conservation Efforts. [PDF]

Bioessays
Coral bleaching is driven by multiple inputs, with heat stress and/or high irradiance being most important. The bleaching response is multifactorial with host animal species/strain and algal symbiont genotypes being critical features. Omics readout of heat stress responses includes gene expression, proteomics, metabolite, and SNP data with transcript ...

Azooxanthellate Scleractinia (Cnidaria, Anthozoa) from South Africa [PDF]

ZooKeys, 2021
Globally, South Africa ranks in the top five countries regarding marine species richness per unit area. Given the high diversity, it is not surprising that many invertebrate taxa in the region are poorly characterised. The South African azooxanthellate Scleractinia (Anthozoa) is one such taxonomic group, and was last reviewed by Boshoff in 1980 ...

Resolving widespread and endemic dinoflagellates (Symbiodiniaceae) mutualistic with Indo-Pacific octocorals reveals differences in specificity based on host phylogeny. [PDF]

J Phycol
Abstract Endosymbionts in the dinoflagellate family Symbiodiniaceae can form mutualisms with a diverse array of host invertebrates, constituting a widespread and ecologically important family. While those associated with reef‐building corals (order Scleractinia) have received considerable research attention, the diversity and ecology of zooxanthellae ...

Physiological Differences in Bleaching Response of the Coral Porites astreoides Along the Florida Keys Reef Tract During High-Temperature Stress

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The Florida Keys reef tract (FKRT) has a unique geological history wherein Holocene sea-level rise and bathymetry interacted, resulting in a reef-building system with notable spatial differences in reef development.

Grounds, Beds, and Reefs of the Endangered Coral <i>Cladocora caespitosa</i> With Description of the Tremiti Reef. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study provides an overview of the distribution of the three ecosystem types formed by Cladocora caespitosa and describes newly discovered ones at Tremiti Islands (Adriatic Sea, Italy). The spatial distribution, biometry, size structure, and conservation status of the Cladocora formations have been investigated and compared at the Mediterranean ...
