Diversity and Disease: The Effects of Coral Diversity on Prevalence and Impacts of Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease in Saint Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) was first observed in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI) in January 2019. This disease affects at least 20 scleractinian coral species; however, it is not well understood how reef diversity affects its spread ...

Assessment of nutrient amendments on stony coral tissue loss disease in Southeast Florida

Frontiers in Marine Science
Florida’s coral reefs are facing a multi-year outbreak of stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) with dramatic consequences for coral communities. However, potential anthropogenic and environmental drivers of SCTLD progression and severity remain poorly

Evaluating the spread of stony coral tissue loss disease in the Bay Islands, Honduras

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Scleractinian corals, considered key reef ecosystem engineers, have suffered irreparable damage over the last decades, with causes widely attributed directly and indirectly to increased human pressure on coral communities. Stony coral tissue loss disease

Connecting the Dots: Transmission of Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease From the Marquesas to the Dry Tortugas

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
For the last 7 years, Florida’s Coral Reef (FCR) has suffered from widespread and severe coral loss caused by stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD). First observed off the coast of Miami-Dade county in 2014, the outbreak has since spread throughout the

The use of algal symbiont cultures (Family Symbiodiniaceae) as model systems to study stony coral tissue loss disease: Use of fractionated disease isolates to help with pathogen identification

, 2023
Since its initial appearance in late summer 2014, Florida’s Coral Reef has experienced unprecedented losses of brain and boulder corals due to stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD). These coral species appear to be unusually susceptible to this disease,

Stony coral tissue loss disease: a review of emergence, impacts, etiology, diagnostics, and intervention

Frontiers in Marine Science
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) is destructive and poses a significant threat to Caribbean coral reef ecosystems. Characterized by the acute loss of coral tissue, SCTLD has impacted over 22 stony coral species across the Caribbean region, leading

Assisted recovery of tissue loss in massive corals Orbicella faveolata: an alternative conservation tool for restoring damaged colonies

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Introduction Coral reefs, vital for marine ecosystems and human well‐being, face drastic decline due to climate change effects. In the Caribbean, global disturbances and regional water pollution exacerbate conditions, eliciting disease outbreaks that, in synergy with coral bleaching and hurricanes, cause significant damage to key reef‐building

Evaluating the effectiveness of field-based probiotic treatments for stony coral tissue loss disease in southeast Florida, USA

Frontiers in Marine Science
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has spread throughout Florida’s Coral Reef, causing extensive mortality of over 30 species of reef-building corals, and has rapidly spread to many other countries and territories throughout the Caribbean.

The Host Coral Bleaching Response Viewed Through the Lens of Multi‐Omics

BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2026.
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 ...
