Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) destabilizes the coral microbiome

2025-06-20

Abstract excerpt

Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD) is a rapidly spreading lethal coral disease, the etiology of which remains poorly understood. In this study, using deep metagenomic sequencing, we investigate microbial and viral community dynamics associated with SCTLD progression in the Caribbean stony coral Diploria labyrinthiformis . We assembled 264 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) and correlated their abundance wit...
