COLONY INTEGRATION DURING REGENERATION IN THE STONY CORAL FAVIA FAVUS
- U. Oren, Y. Benayahu, H. Lubinevsky, Y. Loya
- Biology
- 1 March 2001
Modular organisms consist of repeated building blocks. An important con- sequence of modularity may be reflected in the ability of a colony to continually reallocate priority of resource transport… Expand
Sexual reproduction in octocorals
- S. Kahng, Y. Benayahu, H. Lasker
- Biology
- 20 December 2011
For octocorals, sexual reproductive processes are fundamental to maintaining popu- lations and influencing macroevolutionary processes. While ecological data on octocorals have lagged behind their… Expand
Flow-dependent herbivory and growth in zooxanthellae-free soft corals
- K. Fabricius, A. Genin, Y. Benayahu
- Biology
- 1 November 1995
The diet of Dendronephthya hemprichi and three other abundant soft corals in the northern Red Sea consists mainly of phytoplankton, a food source so far unknown for cnidarians. We present a carbon… Expand
Effect of lesion size and shape on regeneration of the Red Sea coral Favia favus
- U. Oren, Y. Benayahu, Y. Loya
- Biology
- 30 January 1997
The present study examined the effect of lesion size and shape on the recovery rates of the scleractinian colonial coral Favia farms Five tissue lesion types, differing in surface area and perimeter,… Expand
Fish assemblage on natural versus vertical artificial reefs: the rehabilitation perspective
- G. Rilov, Y. Benayahu
- Biology
- 16 June 2000
Abstract Artificial reefs have been suggested as a potential tool for the restoration of marine habitats. In the present study, the fish assemblage established around the oil jetties of Eilat… Expand

In light of the deteriorating state of coral reefs worldwide, the need to rehabilitate marine environments has greatly increased. Artificial reefs (ARs) have been suggested as a tool for reef… Expand
First evidence of maternal transmission of algal endosymbionts at an oocyte stage in a triploblastic host, with observations on reproduction in Waminoa brickneri (Acoelomorpha)
- O. Barneah, I. Brickner, M. Hooge, V. Weis, Y. Benayahu
- Biology
- 1 September 2007
Abstract. Examination of sexual reproduction in a symbiotic acoelomorph worm, Waminoa brickneri from Eilat (Red Sea), presents the first definitive evidence for maternal transmission of… Expand
Diversity of dinoflagellate symbionts in Red Sea soft corals: mode of symbiont acquisition matters
- O. Barneah, V. Weis, S. Perez, Y. Benayahu
- Biology
- 14 July 2004
Symbiotic associations are ubiquitous in terrestrial and marine environments and are of great ecological importance. The onset of a symbiotic relationship differs among associations. Sym- bionts can… Expand
Three party symbiosis: acoelomorph worms, corals and unicellular algal symbionts in Eilat (Red Sea)
- O. Barneah, I. Brickner, M. Hooge, V. Weis, T. LaJeunesse, Y. Benayahu
- Biology
- 11 January 2007
Epizoic worms were found to occur on certain coral colonies from reefs off the coast of Eilat (Red Sea). We identified 14 coral species infested by acoelomorph worms at a depth range of 2–50 m. The… Expand
