Bacterial Metabolic Potential and Micro-Eukaryotes Enriched in Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease Lesions

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The epizootic disease outbreak known as stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) is arguably the most devastating coral disease in recorded history. SCTLD emerged off the coast of South Florida in 2014 and has since moved into the Caribbean, resulting in ...

Evaluating the small-scale epidemiology of the stony-coral -tissue-loss-disease in the middle Florida Keys. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2020
Along the Florida reef tract, stony-coral-tissue-loss disease (SCTLD) has caused extensive mortality of more than 20 scleractinian coral species. The pathogen is unknown, but its epizoology indicates that the disease, facilitated by water currents, has ...

Stony coral tissue loss disease indirectly alters reef communities. [PDF]

Sci Adv
Many Caribbean coral reefs are near collapse due to various threats. An emerging threat, stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD), is spreading across the Western Atlantic and Caribbean. Data from the U.S.

Effects of the Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease Outbreak on Coral Communities and the Benthic Composition of Cozumel Reefs

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
In the Caribbean, disease outbreaks have emerged as significant drivers of coral mortality. Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) is a novel white plague-type disease that was first reported off the Florida coast in 2014.

Ex situ treatment enhances survival and recovery from stony coral tissue loss disease in Caribbean corals

Frontiers in Marine Science
Caribbean coral reefs have experienced significant genetic loss from the effects of stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD). Since its emergence in 2014, SCTLD has spread from Florida to the Caribbean, affecting at least 25 species of scleractinian ...

Too hot to handle? The impact of the 2023 marine heatwave on Florida Keys coral [PDF]

bioRxiv
The summer 2023 marine heatwave was the most severe on record for Florida’s Coral Reef, with unprecedented water temperatures and cumulative heat stress leading to 100% coral bleaching.

Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) case definition for wildlife [PDF]

Techniques and Methods
Diagnostic laboratories receive carcasses and samples for diagnostic evaluation and pathogen/toxin detection. The intent of a case definition is to provide scientifically based criteria for determining (1) if an individual carcass has a specific disease ...

Acclimation and size influence predation, growth, and survival of sexually produced Diploria labyrinthiformis used in restoration [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has swept through Florida reefs and caused mass mortality of numerous coral species. In the wake of these losses, efforts are underway to propagate coral species impacted by SCTLD and promote population recovery ...
