Diverse items were present in the digestive tracts of urchins from all habitats. These items included brown (42% barrens, 46% macroalgae), green (28% barrens, 42% macroalgae) and red algae (15% barrens, 12% macroalgae) and corallines (29% barrens, 37% macroalgae), molluscs (28% barrens, 29% macroalgae) and crustaceans (26% barrens, 22% macroalgae). There was no difference in urchin gut fullness between habitats (85% barrens, 90% macroalgae). Importantly, the gonad index only differed in macroalgae compared to barrens habitats at one location, with no differences detected at the other 4 locations. These results suggest that C. rodgersii has a diverse diet that is similar in both habitats, which could explain the similarities in gut fullness and gonad index. Our results suggest that C. rodgersii eat a broad diet including invertebrates and drift algae, and hence may not be malnourished in barrens. The finding of comparable gonad index between barrens and macroalgal areas further supports this conclusion. These findings challenge the prevailing perspective, indicating that sea urchins have sufficient food to survive and reproduce in different habitats.]]> Wed 01 May 2024 15:33:18 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50883 Tue 15 Aug 2023 10:19:15 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36576 Tue 09 Jun 2020 11:40:47 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34933 Tue 03 Sep 2019 17:58:29 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48856 400 biosynthetic gene clusters that underlie the biosynthesis of antioxidant, antimicrobial, cytotoxic, and other secondary metabolites. Moreover, we uncovered genomic features—not previously described for coral-bacterium symbioses—potentially involved in host colonization and host-symbiont recognition, antiviral defense mechanisms, and/or integrated metabolic interactions, which we suggest as novel targets for the screening of coral probiotics. Our results highlight the importance of bacterial cultures to elucidate coral holobiont functioning and guide the selection of probiotic candidates to promote coral resilience and improve holistic and customized reef restoration and rehabilitation efforts.]]> Thu 13 Apr 2023 13:36:58 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48857 Thu 13 Apr 2023 09:52:49 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50839 Mon 13 Nov 2023 08:51:19 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35467 Mon 12 Aug 2019 16:16:22 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35589 Mon 09 Sep 2019 11:07:46 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46545 Fri 25 Nov 2022 11:19:25 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52694 Fri 20 Oct 2023 16:09:14 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52681 Fri 20 Oct 2023 09:30:49 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47369 Fri 13 Jan 2023 15:04:30 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48161 Fri 10 Mar 2023 13:58:47 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42982 Fri 09 Sep 2022 13:56:36 AEST ]]>
