1 C LIMATE C HANGE : D OES M EMORY IN CORAL DICTATE FITNESS IN A CHANGING WORLD ? 1 Kevin B. Strychar & 2 Paul W. Sammarco 1 Annis Water Resources Institute of Grand Valley State University, Michigan, USA 2 Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium (LUMCON), 8124 Hwy. 56, Chauvin, LA 70344, USA

2 Introduction: Climate change USGCRP 2009

3 Introduction: impact on organisms By far the greatest impact from global warming has been in the seas and oceans, where changes in heat content, oxygen levels and other biogeochemical properties have devastated marine ecosystems. Globally, the average body size of fish has declined by up to 24 per cent compared with 2000. About half of this shrinkage has come from changes in distribution and abundance, the remainder from changes in physiology. The tropics have been the worst affected regions.

5 Introduction: coral

6 Introduction: coral phagocytes Tahseen, 2009

7 Hypotheses 1. Too many symbionts? 2. No symbionts? Better heat resistance Better disease resistance Better fitness 3. Hard vs. Soft vs. Gorgonian

8 Coral immune systems Types of Programmed Cell Death (PCD) = PCD Apoptosis Autophagic Caspase-independent Anolkis Aponecrosis Apoptosis – Aponecrosis - Necrosis programmed traumatic
