Do reef corals age?
JC Bythell, BE Brown, TBL Kirkwood - Biological Reviews, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Hydra is emerging as a model organism for studies of ageing in early metazoan animals, but
reef corals offer an equally ancient evolutionary perspective as well as several advantages …

Meta‐analysis of the coral environmental stress response: Acropora corals show opposing responses depending on stress intensity
As climate change progresses, reef‐building corals must contend more often with
suboptimal conditions, motivating a need to understand coral stress response. Here, we test …

Morphological stasis masks ecologically divergent coral species on tropical reefs
Coral reefs are the epitome of species diversity, yet the number of described scleractinian
coral species, the framework-builders of coral reefs, remains moderate by comparison. DNA …

The evolution of calcification in reef-building corals
Corals build the structural foundation of coral reefs, one of the most diverse and productive
ecosystems on our planet. Although the process of coral calcification that allows corals to …

Molecular characterization of larval development from fertilization to metamorphosis in a reef-building coral
Background Molecular mechanisms underlying coral larval competence, the ability of larvae
to respond to settlement cues, determine their dispersal potential and are potential targets of …

Developmental series of gene expression clarifies maternal mRNA provisioning and maternal-to-zygotic transition in a reef-building coral
Background Maternal mRNA provisioning of oocytes regulates early embryogenesis.
Maternal transcripts are degraded as zygotic genome activation (ZGA) intensifies, a …

Coral larvae suppress heat stress response during the onset of symbiosis decreasing their odds of survival
The endosymbiosis between most corals and their photosynthetic dinoflagellate partners
begins early in the host life history, when corals are larvae or juvenile polyps. The capacity …
