• Deciphering Coral Disease Dynamics: Integrating Host, Microbiome, and the Changing Environment (2020, background): “This has led to a push for systematic, detailed species-specific descriptions to facilitate sharing of disease information, especially when the etiology remains unknown (Work and Aeby, 2006).”
• Pathogenesis of a Tissue Loss Disease Affecting Multiple Species of Corals Along the Florida Reef Tract (2019, background): “Snails (Williams and Miller, 2005), fireworms (Sussman et al., 2003) and reef fish (Aeby and Santavy, 2006; Raymundo et al., 2009) have all been identified as potential coral disease vectors at within reef scales.”
• Impact of coral predators on tropical reefs (2008, background): “In laboratory studies, the Caribbean butterflyfish Chaetodon capistratus acted as a vector for black-band disease in the coral Montastraea faveolata via direct oral and/or indirect fecal transmission (Aeby & Santavy 2006).”
• Are infectious diseases really killing corals? Alternative interpretations of the experimental and ecological data (2007, background): “The experimental data of Aeby and Santavy (2006) showed a requirement for a break in the integrity of the coral tissue for an infection to occur.”
• Strong relationship between coral bleaching and growth anomalies in massive Porites (2009, background): “…(Shinn et al., 2000), changes in the frequency or effectiveness of vectors such as erect algae (Nugues et al., 2004), fish feeding on injured coral (Aeby & Santavy, 2006), longtime residence of fish/invertebrate feces on live coral surfaces (Weil, 2004); polychaetes feeding on coral tissue…”
