Coral bleaching, bleaching-induced mortality, and the adaptive significance of the bleaching response (2008, background): “Some experimental evidence for bleaching as a pathological stress event (in both the host and algae) has been obtained from laboratory-based studies of heat stress in anemones and corals (Dunn et al. 2002; Strychar et al. 2004; Franklin et al. 2004 ).”
Remarkably high and consistent tolerance of a Red Sea coral to acute and chronic thermal stress exposures (2021, background): “pistillata on Heron Island, Australia, reported high rates of tissue sloughing and mortality in a "high stress” treatment (32 C and 1000 μmol quanta m s for 8 h), while the majority of corals in a "low stress” treatment (31 C and 550 μmol quanta m s for 5 d) bleached but survived (Franklin et al. 20”
Climate change and coral reef bleaching: An ecological assessment of long-term impacts, recovery trends and future outlook (2008, background): “This damage results in the degradation and eventual expulsion of symbionts from host tissue, although the exact cellular processes involved in symbiont release are still unclear (but see Gates et al., 1992; Dunn et al., 2002; Franklin et al., 2004).”
Oxidative stress in marine environments: biochemistry and physiological ecology. (2006, background): “Oxidative stress can lead to bleaching of corals by zooxanthellae exocytosis from coral host cells (140, 147, 148) or by apoptosis (138, 147–149).”
Cellular mechanisms of Cnidarian bleaching: stress causes the collapse of symbiosis (2008, background): “Franklin and colleagues, as mentioned above, described degenerating symbionts with compromised photosynthetic machinery being released from bleaching corals in nature (Franklin et al., 2004; Franklin et al., 2006).”
The ecological distribution and comparative photobiology of symbiotic dinoflagellates from reef corals in Belize: Potential implications for coral bleaching (2006, background): “This loss in diel recovery of DF/F 9 m represents a chronic loss in photosynthetic function, similar to that seen in zooxanthellae under acute thermal and light stress (Franklin et al. 2004).”
