Ocorrência de doenças em corais no Brasil
Palavras-chave:
Recifes de Corais, DoençasResumo
Estudos sobre doenças em corais são relativamente recentes. As observações iniciaram-se na década de 70 quando as primeiras doenças foram observadas: Doenças da Banda-Preta (1973) e Doenças da Banda-Branca (1977), no Caribe. Diversas das doenças hoje conhecidas são atribuídas a bactérias e fungos. No Brasil as observações e os relatos de doenças são recentes 2005 (Francini-Filho et al., 2008). Foram descritos cinco tipos de doenças: Praga Branca e Banda Negras em Mussismilia braziliensis, Banda vermelha e Pontos Negros em Siderastrea spp e tecido necrosado em Plexaurella grandiflora. O objetivo deste trabalho é realizar um levantamento bibliográfico sobre doenças de corais no Brasil, como uma forma de conhecer as prováveis causas.
