Stoke to announce that I will be joining the Department of Biology @txst.edu this coming Fall semester as an Assistant Professor!
Looking for grad students with interests in #Symbiodiniaceae, #corals 🪸, microbial #symbiosis 🦠, comparative #genomics 🧬 and #phylogenomics soon. Feel free to reach out!
Congratulations!
OUT NOW 'coral reef microbiome' by Springer Nature link.springer.com/book/10.1007... .. some 2.5 years in the making, jam packed: check out Ch.16 on Assisted Restoration as the sum of approaches required to deliver effective ecological restoration! Many thanks to all contributors @uni-konstanz.de

Happy to share our new paper "Cryptic coral diversity is associated with symbioses, physiology, and response to thermal challenge". Check it out and share with your friends!

New work out of our lab with Mote Marine Lab led by Shelby Gantt.

How is coral physiology & symbioses affected by domestication & water quality during coral restoration? 🌏 🧪
A recent study explored these intricacies & found:
🪸Host species-specific responses
🧬Shifts in symbiont associations
🧪Altered growth & diet
🔗
Terrible news today:
This year, one-third of coral cover has been destroyed in two northern sections of the Great Barrier reef due to anthropogenic heating.
Results for the southern sections (which were even hotter) have not been officially released.

Congratulations Dr. Elise Keister! Job well done!
Our paper on resource competition in the cnidarian-algal symbiosis is finally out. shorturl.at/gklxP we show that host and symbiont use photosynthates to fix ammonium. The resulting resource competition shapes the phenotype and defines ecological niche of the symbiosis. @reefgenomics.bsky.social 🪸🦠🔬
Congrats Dr. Wuitchik!
