Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Bacteria
  • Gene

David G. Bourne focuses on Ecology, Coral, Coral reef, Holobiont and Reef. The various areas that he examines in his Ecology study include Microbiome, Symbiosis, Symbiodinium and Microbial population biology. His research integrates issues of Vibrio coralliilyticus and Black band disease in his study of Coral.

His Coral reef study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Species richness and Ocean acidification. His studies deal with areas such as Stylophora pistillata and Pocillopora as well as Holobiont. His Reef research incorporates elements of Water quality and Water column.

His most cited work include:

  • Changes in coral-associated microbial communities during a bleaching event (323 citations)
  • Enzymatic pathway for the bacterial degradation of the cyanobacterial cyclic peptide toxin microcystin LR. (285 citations)
  • Microbial disease and the coral holobiont (282 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Coral, Ecology, Coral reef, Reef and Holobiont. His Coral study combines topics in areas such as Black band disease and Symbiodinium. The concepts of his Ecology study are interwoven with issues in Microbiome, Zoology, Symbiosis and Microbial population biology.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Vibrio coralliilyticus, Microbial ecology and Ocean acidification. His Reef research includes elements of Outbreak, Invertebrate, Climate change and Benthic zone. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Holobiont, focusing on Algae and, on occasion, Dimethylsulfoniopropionate.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Coral (100.35%)
  • Ecology (97.92%)
  • Coral reef (62.98%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Coral (100.35%)
  • Ecology (97.92%)
  • Reef (53.63%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

David G. Bourne mainly investigates Coral, Ecology, Reef, Coral reef and Holobiont. His Coral study incorporates themes from Zoology, Symbiosis and Host. Specifically, his work in Ecology is concerned with the study of Threatened species.

The Reef study combines topics in areas such as Range, Marine invertebrates, Invertebrate and Climate change. David G. Bourne interconnects Microbiome, Nutrient and Ecosystem in the investigation of issues within Coral reef. His work deals with themes such as Anthozoa, Environmental planning, Coral health and Metagenomics, which intersect with Holobiont.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Marine probiotics: increasing coral resistance to bleaching through microbiome manipulation. (80 citations)
  • Marine probiotics: increasing coral resistance to bleaching through microbiome manipulation. (80 citations)
  • Nutrient Availability and Metabolism Affect the Stability of Coral–Symbiodiniaceae Symbioses (54 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Bacteria
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Coral, Coral reef, Ecology, Reef and Microbiome. The study incorporates disciplines such as Symbiosis, Holobiont and Acropora tenuis in addition to Coral. His research investigates the link between Coral reef and topics such as Marine invertebrates that cross with problems in Salinity and Juvenile.

David G. Bourne combines subjects such as Dysbiosis and Reproductive success with his study of Ecology. His research in Reef intersects with topics in Dinoflagellate and Ecosystem. His Microbiome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Microbial population biology, Microbiology, Pseudoalteromonas, Cobetia and Vibrio coralliilyticus.
