Heat waves are causing declines in coral reefs globally. Coral thermal responses depend
on multiple, interacting drivers, such as past thermal exposure, endosymbiont community …

Over the last decade, innate immune priming has been evidenced in many invertebrate
phyla. If mechanistic models have been proposed, molecular studies aiming to substantiate …

Nitrogen (N) is a key element for the production of potato. The N uptake efficiency, N use
efficiency and increased N utilization efficiency can be decreased by N deficiency treatment …

Recent evidence has demonstrated the unique properties of the innate immune system,
known as innate immune memory, immune priming, or trained immunity. These properties …

Background Chimeras are genetically mixed entities resulting from the fusion of two or more
conspecifics. This phenomenon is widely distributed in nature and documented in a variety …

Field ecological observations indicate that scleractinian coral exposed to early thermal
stress are likely to develop higher tolerance to subsequent heat stress. The causes of this …

Epigenetic modifications such as DNA methylation have been shown to participate in plastic
responses to environmental change in a wide range of organisms, including scleractinian …

Ecological surveys observe coral “winners” and “losers” in global coral bleaching events.
However, the key contributors to holobiont tolerance and interactions between symbionts …

Thermal priming of reef corals can enhance their heat tolerance; however, the legacy effects
of heat stress during parental brooding on larval resilience remain understudied. This study …

Healthy coral communities can be found on artificial structures (concrete walls and riprap)
within the Port of Miami (PoM), Florida. These communities feature an unusually high …
