Seawater carbonate chemistry and photosynthesis and calcification of crustose...
Here, we examine the effects of future seawater conditions (OW and OA) on the calcification and photosynthetic efficiency of two CCA species, Hydrolithon boergesenii and... -
Innate immune gene expression in Acropora palmata is consistent despite varia...
Coral disease outbreaks are expected to increase in prevalence, frequency and severity due to climate change and other anthropogenic stressors. This is especially worrying for... -
Acropora palmata transcriptome
To characterize the transcriptome of A. palmata we sequenced one full plate of a normalized cDNA library on the 454 GS-FLX platform using Titanium chemistry. The library was... -
Genome-wide survey of single-nucleotide polymorphisms reveals fine-scale popu...
The advent of next-generation sequencing tools has made it possible to conduct fine-scale surveys of population differentiation and genome-wide scans for signatures of selection... -
Genome-wide survey of Caribbean Acroporids
The sympatric corals Acropora palmata and A. cervicornis form the hybrid, A. prolifera, whose abundance has continued to increase, either through fragmentation or sexual... -
Surviving climate change – the role of acclimatization in reef-building coral...
Branching coral species like the Caribbean Acroporids are long lived and reproduce asexually via breakage of branches. Fragmentation is the dominant mode of local population... -
Different disease inoculations cause common responses of the host immune syst...
The host transcriptomic and prokaryotic microbiome response to different disease inoculations in the critically endangered Caribbean branching coral Acropora palmata -
Phylogenomics of Anthozoa: New Approaches to long-standing problems
Sequence data were captured using a targeted enrichment approach for UCEs and exons. -
Comparative transcriptomics of Acropora palmata
Comparison of RNA sequence data from corals (Acropora palmata) with different disease-tolerance phenotypes. -

Acclimatization to high-variance habitats does not enhance physiological tole...
Corals are acclimatized to populate dynamic habitats that neighbour coral reefs. Habitats such as seagrass beds exhibit broad diel changes in temperature and pH that routinely... -
Acropora palmata (elkhorn coral), genomic and transcriptomic data
This project collects the genomic and transcriptomic data generated for Acropora palmata, common name elkhorn coral, to facilitate genome assembly and annotation as part of the...
