Comparing bacterial community composition between healthy and white plague-like disease states in Orbicella annularis using PhyloChip™ G3 microarrays. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Coral disease is a global problem. Diseases are typically named or described based on macroscopic changes, but broad signs of coral distress such as tissue loss or discoloration are unlikely to be specific to a particular pathogen.

Similarities and Differences Between Two Deadly Caribbean Coral Diseases: White Plague and Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
For several decades, white plagues (WPDs: WPD-I, II and III) and more recently, stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) have significantly impacted Caribbean corals.

Fighting the "white plague". [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 2006
Poverty, homelessness, alcoholism, and malnutrition produced a tuberculosis epidemic in Russia after the break up of the Soviet Union in the 1990s. In some regions, rates are now starting to fall.

Modeling the Impact of White-Plague Coral Disease in Climate Change Scenarios. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2015
Coral reefs are in global decline, with coral diseases increasing both in prevalence and in space, a situation that is expected only to worsen as future thermal stressors increase.

Optimizing Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) Intervention Treatments on Montastraea cavernosa in an Endemic Zone

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) has persisted since 2014 in the Southeast Florida Coral Reef Ecosystem Conservation Area (Coral ECA) where it was first discovered. Most of the highly susceptible corals have perished, leaving Montastraea cavernosa

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.
