. The effects of nutrients and pCO2 on zooxanthellate and azooxanthellate colonies of the temperate scleractinian coral Astrangia poculata (Ellis and Solander, 1786) were investigated at two different temperatures (16 °C and 24 °C).

The roles of endolithic fungi in bioerosion and disease in marine ecosystems. I. General concepts
Endolithic true fungi and fungus-like microorganisms penetrate calcareous substrates formed by living organisms, cause significant bioerosion and are involved in diseases of many host animals in marine ecosystems.

Aquaculture of corals: the effects of temperature and modifications in photoperiod in performance and growth of Stylophora pistillata [PDF]
Nowadays, corals have a large economic potential and the increasing demand places an enormous pressure on wild reefs. This issue brings new challenges for coral production in terms of increasing production and efficiency. Besides this, climate change and

Spatial variation of symbiotic dinoflagellates on coral reefs of the northern Persian Gulf [PDF]
Density, mitotic index, Chlorophyll-a content and cell size of symbiotic dinoflagellates of dominant reef-building corals were measured at two different depths in Kish Island and from one depth of Larak Island in the Persian Gulf. The higher densities of
