• Temporal variability and impact of coral diseases and bleaching in La Parguera, Puerto Rico from 2003–2007 (2009, background): “However, over the years, YBD has become the most important disease on reefs of La Parguera and other Caribbean localities (Cervino et al. 2001; Gil-Agudelo et al. 2004; Weil 2004; Weil et al. 2006; Bruckner and Bruckner 2006; Weil and Croquer 2009; Croquer and Weil 2009a).”
• Patterns of spread of coral disease in the Florida Keys (2001, background): “Species-level studies else- 22 where in the Caribbean suggest that this generalization may be true for other coral reef ecosystems as well (Gladfelter, 1982; Edmunds, 1991; Kuta & Richardson, 1996; Aronson & Precht, 1997; Aronson et al., 1998).”
• Zooxanthellae regulation in yellow blotch/band and other coral diseases contrasted with temperature related bleaching: In situ destruction vs expulsion (2004, unknown): “…the identification of pathogens associated with such diseases (Antonius, 1981; Santavy and Peters, 1996; Smith et al., 1996; Bruckner and Bruckner, 1996; Richardson, 1996; Richardson, 1998; Goreau et al., 1998; Hayes et al., 1998; Cervino et al., 2001; Denner et al., 2002; Ben-Haim et al., 2002).”

• Epidemiology of skeletal eroding band on the Great Barrier Reef and the role of injury in the initiation of this widespread coral disease (2008, background): “Until recently, research has focused primarily on coral diseases in the Caribbean, where they have caused signiWcant and widespread mortality of both scleractinian (Williams et al. 1999; Porter et al. 2001; Patterson et al. 2002) and gorgonian corals (Guzman and Cortes 1984; Garzon-Ferreira and Zea ”
