A framework for measuring coral species-specific contribution to reef functioning in the Caribbean
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Ecological Indicators"
DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2018.08.038
Abstract: Abstract Species morpho-functional traits provide general and predictable rules to understand the dynamics of ecological communities; therefore, considering species identity is crucial in understanding ecosystem functioning. Here, we propose a framework to estimate the species-specific… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s42003-021-02163-5
Abstract: Disease outbreaks have caused significant declines of keystone coral species. While forecasting disease outbreaks based on environmental factors has progressed, we still lack a comparative understanding of susceptibility among coral species that would help predict… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/femsle/fnx164
Abstract: Corals harbor a wide diversity of bacteria associated with their mucus. These bacteria can play an important role in nutrient cycling, degradation of xenobiotics and defense against pathogens by producing antimicrobial compounds. However, the diversity… read more here.

Environmental specialization and cryptic genetic divergence in two massive coral species from the Florida Keys Reef Tract
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Molecular Ecology"
DOI: 10.1111/mec.15931
Abstract: Broadcast‐spawning coral species have wide geographical ranges spanning strong environmental gradients, but it is unclear how much spatially varying selection these gradients actually impose. Strong divergent selection might present a considerable barrier for demographic exchange… read more here.
