Differences in the progression rate of SCTLD in Pseudodiploria strigosa are related to colony size and morphology

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) impacts are unprecedented concerning the level of devastation they have imposed on Caribbean coral assemblages.

Newly deceased Caribbean reef-building corals experience rapid carbonate loss and colonization by endolithic organisms

Communications Biology, 2023
Coral mortality triggers the loss of carbonates fixed within coral skeletons, compromising the reef matrix. Here, we estimate rates of carbonate loss in newly deceased colonies of four Caribbean reef-building corals.

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

Rapid Population Decline of the Pillar Coral Dendrogyra cylindrus Along the Florida Reef Tract

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Coral reefs worldwide are in a state of decline, but the population status and impacts of stressors for rare species are generally not well documented using broad-scale monitoring protocols.

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 ...

Assessment of the microbial communities associated with white syndrome and brown jelly syndrome in aquarium corals [PDF]

, 2013
Bacterial and ciliate assemblages associated with aquarium corals displaying white syndrome (WS) and brown jelly syndrome (BJS) were investigated. Healthy (n = 10) and diseased corals (WS n = 18; BJS n = 3) were analysed for 16S rRNA gene bacterial ...

Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.

Coral Disease and Health Workshop: Coral Histopathology II [PDF]

, 2007
The health and continued existence of coral reef ecosystems are threatened by an increasing array of environmental and anthropogenic impacts. Coral disease is one of the prominent causes of increased mortality among reefs globally, particularly in the ...

Mesoscale Circulation and Coral Community Disturbance at Isolated Reefs

Global Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
The Loop Current is a seasonally and interannually dynamic mesoscale oceanographic feature in the Gulf of Mexico that strongly influences connectivity and environmental conditions across the region. We investigated the influence of Loop Current variability on coral reef disturbances at isolated reefs in the northwest Gulf, including coral disease ...

Parkinson's Disease Patient‐Specific Striatum Organoids Show Hallmarks of Increased Inflammation

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dopaminergic neurons from the substantia nigra pars compacta project their axons into the dorsal striatum, forming the nigrostriatal pathway. In Parkinson's disease (PD), dopaminergic terminals degenerate in the striatum, leading to dopamine depletion, which in turn causes alterations in the basal ganglia circuits that are essential
