Multiple Stressors Drive Changes in Coral Microbiome Diversity and Composition Demonstrating the Role of a Bacterial Symbiont in Microbial Community Sensitivity and Resilience

Creator:: Maher, Rebecca L.
Abstract:: On coral reefs, disturbances rarely occur in isolation. Global stressors such as increasing seawater temperature often coincide with local stressors like nutrient pollution. In the face of increasing anthropogenic stress, corals can function as environmental sentinels, although little is known about how multiple stressors interact to disrupt their associated bacterial...

What is killing the corals? Viral and bacterial interrogations using metagenomics and microscopy

Creator:: Soffer, Nitzan
Abstract:: Corals have multiple roles in maintaining ocean health and are some of the world’s most diverse ecosystems. The coral animal is host to a multitude of taxa, including symbiotic dinoflagellate algae, fungi, bacteria, protists, and viruses. Environmental stressors and disease agents can perturb the delicate balance of the coral host...

Bacterial Predation in Host Microbiomes

Creator:: Welsh, Rory M.
Abstract:: In host-associated microbiomes, the mechanisms that regulate community composition or the principles that govern dynamics remain far from clear. However, understanding how the structure of microbial communities shift as the system moves away from a healthy state is critical to assessing disease progression and to formulate any potential mitigation strategy....

Impacts of Environmental Change on a Newly-characterized Symbiosis between a Novel Bacterial Parasite, Genus Aquarickettsia, and the Coral Acropora cervicornis

Creator:: Klinges, J. Grace
Abstract:: Coral reef ecosystems continue to be significantly altered by disease epizootics, but why some host populations remain resistant while others succumb to outbreaks remains unknown. Research across diverse animal and plant host systems has revealed that disease severity is strongly influenced by host genetics and by environmental influences on both...

The Evolution of Scleractinian Microbial Symbionts

Creator:: McMinds, Ryan C.
Abstract:: The modern world has presented many threats to the health and stability of ecosystems worldwide. One of the most biodiverse ecosystems, coral reefs, faces particularly strong pressures, and is already declining rapidly in complexity and area. Although the stressors that affect reefs are diverse, ranging from nutrient pollution to overfishing,...

The use of omics for disease evaluation in the brains of marine mammals

Creator:: Rosales, Stephanie
Abstract:: Marine mammals are top predators that are essential for the health and function of our oceans. These top predators are often affected by various factors that can be detrimental to their populations. Therefore, there is a need to evaluate undetermined causes of deaths and to better understand known diseases in...

Reef Microbiomes of Mo'orea, French Polynesia, a Socio-Ecological Island System

Creator:: McConnell, Kaitlin M.
Abstract:: At a time of rapid global change, a socio-ecological system (SES) approach can provide a framework through which to quantify and communicate the risks and uncertainties of coupled human-natural systems. Islands, and tropical coral reef islands in particular, can be excellent models for SES research since they may be considered...

Assessing disease impacts of hatcheries on downstream salmonids in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Jakaitis, Michelle
Abstract:: Hatcheries are often perceived as a source of pathogen amplification, potentially increasing disease risk to free-ranging populations; at the same time, free-ranging fishes may introduce pathogens into hatcheries through untreated water sources. Many pathogens exist naturally within the environment (with the exception of introduced pathogens) and the presence of a...
