Defining coral bleaching as a microbial dysbiosis within the coral holobiont
A Boilard, CE Dubé, C Gruet, A Mercière… - Microorganisms, 2020 - mdpi.com
Coral microbiomes are critical to holobiont health and functioning, but the stability of host–
microbial interactions is fragile, easily shifting from eubiosis to dysbiosis. The heat-induced …

Towards enhancing coral heat tolerance: a “microbiome transplantation” treatment using inoculations of homogenized coral tissues
Background Microbiome manipulation could enhance heat tolerance and help corals
survive the pressures of ocean warming. We conducted coral microbiome transplantation …

Standardized short‐term acute heat stress assays resolve historical differences in coral thermotolerance across microhabitat reef sites
Coral bleaching is one of the main drivers of reef degradation. Most corals bleach and suffer
mortality at just 1–2° C above their maximum monthly mean temperatures, but some species …

The molecular language of the cnidarian–dinoflagellate symbiosis
The cnidarian–dinoflagellate symbiosis is of huge importance as it underpins the success of
coral reefs, yet we know very little about how the host cnidarian and its dinoflagellate …

Insights into coral bleaching under heat stress from analysis of gene expression in a sea anemone model system
PA Cleves, CJ Krediet, EM Lehnert… - Proceedings of the …, 2020 - National Acad Sciences
Loss of endosymbiotic algae (“bleaching”) under heat stress has become a major problem
for reef-building corals worldwide. To identify genes that might be involved in triggering or …

Broad scale proteomic analysis of heat-destabilised symbiosis in the hard coral Acropora millepora
Coral reefs across the globe are threatened by warming oceans. The last few years have
seen the worst mass coral bleaching events recorded, with more than one quarter of all reefs …

Unlocking the phylogenetic diversity, primary habitats, and abundances of free‐living Symbiodiniaceae on a coral reef
Dinoflagellates of the family Symbiodiniaceae form mutualistic symbioses with marine
invertebrates such as reef‐building corals, but also inhabit reef environments as free‐living …
