▪ Abstract Oxidative stress—the production and accumulation of reduced oxygen
intermediates such as superoxide radicals, singlet oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, and hydroxyl …

Nitrite is one of the players in the broad nitrogen biogeochemical cycle. This nitrogen oxo-
anion is involved in key pathways crucial to life on Earth and to the planetary “recycling” of …

Since the early 1980s, episodes of coral reef bleaching and mortality, due primarily to
climate-induced ocean warming, have occurred almost annually in one or more of the …

Background Reef-building corals are acutely threatened by ocean warming, calling for
active interventions to reduce coral bleaching and mortality. Corals associate with a wide …

Unprecedented changes in coral reef systems have focused attention on a wide range of
stressors on local, regional, and global spatial scales but global climate change resulting in …

Coral reefs represent the most spectacular and diverse marine ecosystem on the planet as
well as a critical source of income for millions of people. However, the combined effects of …

The declining health of coral reefs worldwide is likely to intensify in response to continued
anthropogenic disturbance from coastal development, pollution, and climate change. In …

Transcriptome and genome data from twenty stony coral species and a selection of
reference bilaterians were studied to elucidate coral evolutionary history. We identified …

Corals depend on a mutualistic symbiosis with intracellular dinoflagellates of the genus
Symbiodinium for their energetic needs. The high productivity of corals in a challenging …

Nitric oxide (NO) is a free radical implicated in numerous cell signaling, physiological and
pathophysiological processes of eukaryotic cells. Here, we describe the production of NO as …
