Coral reefs have undergone profound ecological changes over recent decades. Areas formerly covered by scleractinian coral species are now often overgrown by macroalgae. In Martinique (West Indies), this phenomenon has lead to the colonisation of numerous coral reefs by algae, amongst which Sargassum is one of the most prominent. This study focuses on potential defence molecules produced by Sarg...

The advent of fluorescent proteins (FPs) has redefined the use of fluorescence microscopy in every biological discipline. Green fluorescent protein (GFP) and its variants are commonly used in celluar imaging studies. Recently, a novel fluorescent protein, named vivid Verde Fluorescent Protein (VFP), was isolated from Cyphastrea microphthalma, a scleractinian coral found in the warmer waters of ...

Since the preindustrial era, the average surface ocean pH has declined by 0.1 pH units and is predicted to decline by an additional 0.3 units by the year 2100. Although subtle, this decreasing pH has profound effects on the seawater saturation state of carbonate minerals and is thus predicted to impact on calcifying organisms. Among these are the scleractinian corals, which are the main builder...
