Integrating ecological roles and trophic diversification on coral reefs: multiple lines of evidence identify parrotfishes as microphages (2016, background): “Yamamuro, 1999), and endosymbionts of both corals (Lesser et al., 2004; Guti errez-Isaza et al., 2015) and sponges (Weisz et al., 2007; Erwin & Thacker, 2008).”
Organic matter release by cold water corals and its implication for fauna–microbe interaction (2008, background): “…these species-specific differences in carbon and nitrogen stable isotope signatures may point towards species-specific metabolic differences as suggested by Weisz et al. (2007) for sponges, or towards different feeding strategies, 72 Wild et al.: Organic matter release by cold water corals which…”
Diversity and potential antifungal properties of fungi associated with a Mediterranean sponge (2010, background): “This genus was studied because of the known high diversity of its associated microorganisms ( Weisz et al. 2007, 2008 ).”
Complex interactions between marine sponges and their symbiotic microbial communities (2011, background): “Recent reports on the interaction between host sponges and microbial symbionts have used either manipulative shading experiments or survey-based approaches to document the benefits of symbiosis (Wilkinson 1983; Weisz et al. 2007; Erwin and Thacker 2008a).”
