Variability of morphological descriptors in Sicilian oat (Avena sativa L.) populations
Agronomy Journal, Volume 115, Issue 5, Page 2469-2488, September/October 2023., 2023 Abstract Due to its rusticity and feasibility of use, oat (Avena sativa L.) represents a crucial agronomic and economic resource for many semiarid environments. Presently, the recourse to new commercial varieties has caused a dramatic lowering of areas covered with the traditional local genotypes, and a severe risk of genetic erosion is emerging.

Coral reef erosion: In situ measurement on different dead coral substrates on a Caribbean reef
Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 67, Issue 12, Page 2734-2749, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Widespread mortality of reef‐building coral substantially reduces the capacity for reef growth and makes available extensive bare substrate areas that in the absence of coral recovery will be eroded by a variety of external and internal bioeroders.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 In 2014, Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) was first detected off the coast of Miami, FL, United States, and continues to persist and spread along the Florida Reef Tractr (FRT) and into the Caribbean.

, 2022 Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has devastated coral populations along Florida’s Coral Reef and beyond. Although widespread infection and mortality of adult colonies have been documented, no studies have yet investigated the susceptibility of ...

The past, present, and future of coral reef growth in the Florida Keys
Global Change Biology, Volume 28, Issue 17, Page 5294-5309, September 2022., 2022 We used carbonate budgets to reconstruct reef‐accretion potential at 46 reefs throughout the Florida Keys from 1996–2019. Whereas in 1996 many reefs grew at rates comparable with millennial‐scale baselines from reef cores, over the next two decades, thermal stress drove substantial losses of reef‐building corals.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Since 2014, corals within Florida’s Coral Reef have been dying at an unprecedented rate due to stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD). Here we describe the transcriptomic outcomes of three different SCTLD transmission experiments performed at the ...

Exploring microbiome engineering as a strategy for improved thermal tolerance in Exaiptasia diaphana
Journal of Applied Microbiology, Volume 132, Issue 4, Page 2940-2956, April 2022., 2022 Abstract Aims Fourteen percent of all living coral, equivalent to more than all the coral on the Great Barrier Reef, has died in the past decade as a result of climate change‐driven bleaching. Inspired by the ‘oxidative stress theory of coral bleaching’, we investigated whether a bacterial consortium designed to scavenge free radicals could integrate ...

Effectiveness of topical antibiotics in treating corals affected by Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Since 2014, Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) has led to mass mortality of the majority of hard coral species on the Florida Reef Tract. Following the successful treatment of SCTLD lesions on laboratory corals using water dosed with antibiotics ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) has affected Caribbean coral reef colonies since it was first detected in Florida in 2014. Its rapid spread and virulent nature are a major concern to coastal nations in the Caribbean Sea.
