New work led by @stevenjrobbins.bsky.social @markoterzin.bsky.social finally published - we now have a reference of microbial genomic resources from the Great Barrier Reef. The paper came out just hours after the work presented by Marko at #ICRS2026 @icrs.bsky.social See thread here for more detail

GenomeFISH: genome-based fluorescence in situ hybridisation for strain-level visualisation of microbial communities
Fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) is a powerful tool for visualising the spatial organisation of microbial communities. However, traditional FISH has several limitations, including ​​limited p...

Fish diversity has changed dramatically on the Great Barrier Reef
The team found that the diversity of fish communities across the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) have changed dramatically since the 1990s.

4/4 💻📈 P-integration (MINT) from @mixomics.org was crucial in bringing all this data together (this is the largest metagenomics dataset generated to date for the GBR). I'm curious to see how this approach can be applied to other large-scale reef studies or planktonic snapshots. 🪸🐠🌊

3/4 🦠 Seawater heterotrophic microbes likely remineralize particulate organic matter (POM) from picocyanobacteria into dissolved nutrients, recycling essential nutrients to support higher trophic levels in the offshore Great Barrier Reef, playing a critical role in the reef microbial loop.

2/4 🌞 Seasonal shifts show nutrient concentrations were 3x higher in summer, linked to increased primary production by picocyanobacteria like Synechococcus.

1/4 🧬 Functional genes in seawater microbes proved to be twice as stable than microbial taxonomy in indicating physico-chemical factors like temperature and nutrients.

Check out our new paper! We compare indicators for monitoring the impacts of island restoration on coral reefs. Massive thanks to our huge list of collaborators, which enabled us to look at seabirds, nutrients, microbes, algae, corals, and fish! 🐦🦠🌱🪸🐠 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
