Herbivory in Asymbiotic Soft Corals
Science, 1995A zooxanthellae-free soft coral from the Red Sea feeds almost exclusively on phytoplankton, a mode of nutrition so far unknown for corals. Herbivory was also found in three other azooxanthellate soft corals. In tropical oligotrophic waters, phytoplankton biomass density may be an order of magnitude higher than that of zooplankton.

Herbivory in Soft Corals: Correction
Science, 1996We have demonstrated the ability of several azooxanthellate soft corals to feed on phytoplankton (Reports, 7 Apr. 1995, p. 90) ([1][1]). The conversion of gut fluorescence values to chlorophyll concentrations yields nanograms of chlorophyll in the gastrovascular system of Dendronephthya hemprichi ,

Marine Metabolites: The Sterols of Soft Coral
Chemical Reviews, 2009Sterols constitute a major group of secondary metabolites of soft corals. Several of these compounds have the 'usual' 3 beta-hydroxy, delta sup(5) (or delta sup(0)) cholestane skeleton, a large number of these metabolites are polar sterols with multiple oxygenations in rings as well as side chains.

Bioactivity-guided fractionation of a CHCl3 extract of the soft coral Lobophytum michaelae afforded a new cytotoxic cembranolide, lobomichaolide (1), and a known cytotoxic cembranolide, crassolide (2). The structure of 1 was determined by spectral and X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Soft corals exert no direct effects on coral reef fish assemblages
Oecologia, 2001Correlations between abundance of organisms and their habitat have often been used as a measure of the importance of particular habitat features. However, experimental manipulation of the habitat provides a more unequivocal estimate of its importance. In this study we quantified how fish communities on small patch reefs covaried with changes in benthic
