Successive responses of three coral holobiont components (coral hosts, symbiotic algae, and bacteria) to daily temperature fluctuations

This study examines how coral hosts, symbiotic algae, and bacteria respond to daily temperature fluctuations and continuous warming, finding that diurnal fluctuations may reduce heat stress and bacterial response changes.

Microbiome restructuring: dominant coral bacterium Endozoicomonas species display differential adaptive capabilities to environmental changes

This study examines how dominant coral bacteria, Endozoicomonas species, adapt to environmental changes through a reciprocal transplant experiment and genomic analysis.

Response of Endozoicomonas montiporae to heat stress and coral host lysates

This study investigates how E. montiporae responds to heat stress and coral host lysates by analyzing protein expression changes.

Endothelial integration of mechanosensory signals by the spectrin cytoskeleton

This study shows that the spectrin cytoskeleton in endothelial cells is essential for sensing and transmitting shear stress to mechanosensors, leading to vasoactive responses.

A genomic view of coral-associated Prosthecochloris and a companion sulfate-reducing bacterium

This study identifies and characterizes novel genomes of coral-associated Prosthecochloris and a sulfate-reducing bacterium, revealing their genomic and metabolic traits and a potential syntrophic relationship in coral endolithic communities.

The fate of standing variation and new mutation under climate change

The paper examines how standing genetic variation and new mutations contribute to adaptation under climate change, finding that new mutations are more impactful in novel environments while standing variants are more important in familiar ones.

Combination antibiotic delivery in PMMA provides sustained broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and allows for post-implantation refilling

This paper develops a combination-antibiotic PMMA composite system that extends antimicrobial activity duration and allows post-implantation refilling, though it slightly reduces mechanical properties.

Comparative genomics: Dominant coral bacterium Endozoicomonas acroporae metabolizes Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP)

This study identifies and functionally characterizes DMSP metabolism in Endozoicomonas acroporae, confirming its role in the coral sulfur cycle.
