The Coral Host Microbiome Modulates the Virulence of the Bacterial Pathogen Vibrio coralliilyticus
The coral microbiome has been shown to protect the host (bottom right panel), but dysbiosis can increase susceptibility to infection by the bacterial pathogen Vibrio coralliilyticus. Treatment of Montipora capitata coral with antibiotics induced dysbiosis, which increased infection rates of less pathogenic V. coralliilyticus strains.

Abstract The Mediterranean Sea is warming at a rate exceeding the global average. Long‐term, high‐resolution data are essential for contextualizing changes within broader temporal scales, and coral skeletons provide valuable environmental archives, especially in data‐sparse regions or as supplements to existing records.

Cnidarian Interaction with Microbial Communities: From Aid to Animal’s Health to Rejection Responses
The phylum Cnidaria is an ancient branch in the tree of metazoans. Several species exert a remarkable longevity, suggesting the existence of a developed and consistent defense mechanism of the innate immunity capable to overcome the potential repeated ...

Marine Heatwaves Transform Coral Symbioses With Enduring Effects
Marine heatwaves are disrupting coral–algal symbioses, yet their long‐term effects remain poorly understood. Using a decade‐long survey (2013–2023), we document a lasting transformation of symbiont assemblages, evidence of a local symbiont extinction, and indications that local human disturbance may impede symbiont recovery following a major marine ...

Ancient Hybridisation Fuelled Diversification in Acropora Corals
ABSTRACT Introgression is the infiltration or flow of genes from one species to another through hybridisation followed by backcrossing. This may lead to incorrect phylogenetic reconstruction or divergence‐time estimation. Acropora is a dominant genus of reef‐building corals; however, whether this group has an introgression history before their ...

Abstract Introduction Coral reefs face escalating threats from the synergic effects of natural and anthropogenic stressors, challenging traditional conservation strategies and prompting the emergence of direct intervention approaches for coral reef restoration.

Climate change and global warming cause massive damage to the environment. One of the major events that are threatening the marine ecosystem is coral bleaching. Coral bleaching occurs when corals are exposed to above or below normal temperatures.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of 12 h of exposure to light, as compared with 12 h of exposure to darkness (control), on enzymatic activities of transporters involved in the transport of NH4+ or H+, and activities of enzymes ...
