Selective impact of disease on coral communities: Outbreak of white syndrome causes significant total mortality of acropora plate corals

Coral diseases represent a significant and increasing threat to coral reefs. Among the most destructive diseases is White Syndrome (WS), which is increasing in distribution and prevalence throughout the Indo-Pacific. The aim of this study was to determine taxonomic and spatial patterns in mortality...
