There are increasing concerns that the current rate of climate change might outpace the
ability of reef-building corals to adapt to future conditions. Work on model systems has …

Increasing algal cover on tropical reefs worldwide may be maintained through feedbacks
whereby algae outcompete coral by altering microbial activity. We hypothesized that algae …

Macroalgae are the source of many harmful allelopathic compounds, which are synthesized
as a defense strategy against competitors and herbivores. Therefore, it can be predicted that …

Coral reefs are experiencing increasing anthropogenic impacts that result in substantial
declines of reef-building corals and a change of community structure towards other benthic …

The decline of reef‐building corals in conjunction with shifts to short‐lived opportunistic
species has prompted concerns that Caribbean reef framework‐building capacity has …

Coastal benthic communities in temperate regions have been influenced by climate change,
including increasing sea-surface temperature. Nevertheless, scleractinian coral Alveopora …

Marine compounds are a potential source of new anticancer drugs. In this study, the
antiproliferative effects of 20 invertebrate marine extracts on three colon cancer cell models …

Background Coral reefs are among the most diverse, complex and densely populated
marine ecosystems. To survive, morphologically simple and sessile cnidarians have …

Simple Summary This study explored the crucial issue of how the physiology and molecular
response of the hermatypic coral Acropora hyacinthus was affected by the foliaceous …

Tropical coral reefs feature extraordinary biodiversity and high productivity rates in
oligotrophic waters. Due to increasing frequencies of perturbations–anthropogenic and …
