Deep‐Sea Coral Abundance, Distribution, and Community Structure on Seafloor Features Across a Broad Depth Gradient in North‐Central California National Marine Sanctuaries

Marine Ecology, Volume 46, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Patterns in deep‐sea coral (DSC) diversity and distribution are described for a range of benthic habitat features including offshore banks, continental shelf and slope, and submarine canyons in three national marine sanctuaries off the coast of North‐central California.

A comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the Scleractinia (Cnidaria, Anthozoa) based on mitochondrial CO1 sequence data.

PLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundClassical morphological taxonomy places the approximately 1400 recognized species of Scleractinia (hard corals) into 27 families, but many aspects of coral evolution remain unclear despite the application of molecular phylogenetic methods.

Next-generation sequencing yields the complete mitogenome of Favia favus

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
In the present study, we determined the complete mitogenome sequence of scleractinia, Favia favus using the Illumina HiSeq platform. The assembled mitogenome was 17,054 bp in length, comprising unique 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNAs, and

Setting evolutionary-based conservation priorities for a phylogenetically data-poor taxonomic group (Scleractinia) [PDF]

, 2015
Given the current extinction crisis coupled with the shortfall in funding, there is a pressing need to establish species conservation priorities. The prioritization of phylogenetic diversity and evolutionary distinctiveness is one approach; however ...

Species Delimitation of Hexacorallia and Octocorallia Around Iceland Using Nuclear and Mitochondrial DNA and Proteome Fingerprinting

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Cold-water corals build up reef structures or coral gardens and play an important role for many organisms in the deep sea. Climate change, deep-sea mining, and bottom trawling are severely compromising these ecosystems, making it all the more important ...

The property of larval cells of the scleractinian coral, Acropora tenuis, deduced from in vitro cultured cells

Development, Growth &Differentiation, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 119-135, April 2025.
Using antibodies raised against in vitro cultured cells, we determined the property of coral larval cells. Neuronal cells, ectoderm cells, and endoderm cells were characterized. Abstract In previous studies, we have established approximately 15 cultured cell‐lines derived from planula larvae of Acropora tenuis.

Morphological variation in the atlantic genus Siderastrea (Anthozoa, Scleractinia) [PDF]

Papéis Avulsos de Zoologia (São Paulo), 2014
Siderastrea is a small genus of scleractinian corals, composed by zooxanthellate massive colonial forms. Besides contributing to the consolidation of the reef structure, represent a group with significant resistance to environmental stress. Until the 70's, its taxonomy was a complicated task, limited by the difficulty in identifying morphotypes.

Predicting Suitable Areas for Cold‐Water Scleractinian Corals in Southwestern Australian Submarine Canyons

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim The exploration of submarine canyons offshore southwestern Australia using remotely operated vehicles (ROV) has documented the occurrence of cold‐water coral (CWC) ecosystems, predominantly along the heads and slopes of the canyons. Representing the first major ROV investigation in this region, information on CWC distribution in this area ...
