In early 2024, the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) faced unprecedented heat stress, with severe coral bleaching affecting vast areas of the marine park The Reefs of One Tree Island, in the southern GBR, are some of the highest protected on the entire GBR.

New paper out with @tylercarrier_ on the differing microbiome of these pretty larvae from two sister sea urchins pnas.org/content/118/16… @ProfMariaByrne @Britt_3Phage @Symbionticism @adam_reitzel Hannah Devens and Greg Wray @PNASNews

The gut microbiome is considered to be important to many biological functions in animals, but what happens to the microbiome when the gut is lost or becomes non-functional? We explore this using the transition from feeding (L) to nonfeeding (R) in the sea urchin Heliocidaris.

Small crown-of thorns-starfish juveniles can be injured and killed by coral stinging cells. This is the one opportunity for corals to fight back against these coral eating starfish, although the tough juveniles can regrow their lost arms. Find out more ➡️ bit.ly/meps_665_115
