Orbicella faveolata Phenotype or Genotype
To develop genomic resources for the Caribbean coral Orbicella faveolata, we conducted genetic linkage analysis using multilocus SNP genotypes from individual larvae. To... -
Understanding differential heat tolerance of the threatened mountainous star ...
We subjected three inshore and four offshore genotypes of the coral Orbicella faveolata to 30, 31, 32, or 33ºC for 31 days and measured photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm), the... -
Orbicella faveolata, Whole Genome Sequencing from USVI
Use whole genome sequencing methods to explore ecological adaptation of the Mountainous Star coral in the US Virgin Islands -
Gene Expression Response to Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease Transmission in M...
Florida's coral reefs are currently experiencing massive die-offs due to a multi-year disease event. Stony coral tissue loss disease, or SCTLD, has been described as causing... -
Understanding differential heat tolerance of the threatened coral Orbicella f...
Twelve inshore and six offshore colonies were reciprocally transplanted during 1 year (July 2017- July 2018) at Florida Keys (location). After this period samples were collected... -
Transcriptome sequencing of Montastraea faveolata
Tissue samples collected on Media Luna Reef in La Parguera, Puerto Rico during the 2010 combined thermal stress, bleached and Caribbean Yellow Band Disease outbreak. RNA... -
Gene family evolution of Caribbean coral
Gene family complexity and its influence of expression dynamics has long been theorized to be an important source of adaptation in natural systems through providing novel... -
Coral holobiont Transcriptome or Gene expression
The study's primary objective was to determine the immune responses of corals to infection. We use 4 Caribbean corals (Orbicella faveolata, Porites astreoides, Porites porites... -
Somatic mutations in the Caribbean coral Orbicella faveolata
The aim of this project was to identify somatic mutations within large, old colonies of the Caribbean coral Orbicella faveolata and to assess the potential for transfer of these... -

Seawater carbonate chemistry and coral-coral competition
As carbon dioxide (CO2) levels increase, coral reefs and other marine systems will be affected by the joint stressors of ocean acidification (OA) and warming. The effects of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and growth rate, symbiont photochemical efficien...
There is growing evidence that different coral species and algal symbionts (Symbiodinium spp.) can vary greatly in their response to rising temperatures and also ocean... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcification in Caribbean reef-building corals
Projected increases in ocean pCO2 levels are anticipated to affect calcifying organisms more rapidly and to a greater extent than other marine organisms. The effects of ocean... -
Species-specific responses to climate change and community composition determ...
Anthropogenic climate change compromises reef growth as a result of increasing temperatures and ocean acidification. Scleractinian corals vary in their sensitivity to these... -
Population genomics of Orbicella faveolata in the Florida Keys
We are aiming to understand genomic mechanisms by which corals adapt to variable conditions across their species' range. This information will allow us estimating the potential... -
Transcriptomic responses of urban corals to OA and thermal stress
Marginal environments, such as urban reefs found in the Port of Miami, are hypothesized to be a source of potentially resilient reef-building corals. To determine whether urban... -
Characterizing transcriptomic responses to sedimentation across location and ...
Gene expression in response to sedimentation across location (Florida, Hawai'i) and morphology (branching, intermediate, massive). Data includes RNAseq (gene expression)... -
