Microbial community shifts associated with the ongoing stony coral tissue loss disease outbreak on the Florida Reef Tract

2019-05-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> As many as 22 of the 45 coral species on the Florida Reef Tract are currently affected by stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD). The ongoing disease outbreak was first observed in 2014 in Southeast Florida near Miami and as of early 2019 has been documented from the northernmost reaches of the reef tract in Martin County down to Key West. We examined the microbiota associated with disease lesi...
