Ocean warming and marine heatwaves caused by climate change are adversely affecting the health, structure, and function of coral reefs globally. As seawater temperature continues …
Corals host abundant microbial communities, or microbiomes, that play essential roles in the function of the coral holobiont. We examined the mucus microbiome in corals within the port …
As corals continue to decline globally, particularly due to climate change, it is vital to understand the extent to which their microbiome may confer an adaptive resilience against …
Human activity since the Industrial Revolution has increased global greenhouse gas concentrations resulting in rapid climate change, which now threatens terrestrial and marine …
Ocean warming, disease, and pollution contributed to global declines in coral abundances and diversity. In the Caribbean, corals previously dominated reefs, providing an architectural …
Corals from more thermally variable environments often fare better under thermal stress compared to those from less thermally variable environments, an important finding given that …
Microorganisms provide essential services for host organisms and this is especially true for communities of algal symbionts and bacteria hosted by tropical reef-building corals …
