White band disease is a coral disease that affects acroporid corals and is distinguishable by the white band of exposed coral skeleton that it forms. The disease completely destroys the coral tissue of Caribbean acroporid corals, specifically elkhorn coral (Acropora palmata) and staghorn coral (A. cervicornis). The disease exhibits a pronounced division between the remaining coral tissue and the exposed coral skeleton. These symptoms are similar to white plague, except that white band disease is only found on acroporid corals, and white plague has not been found on any acroporid corals. It is part of a class of similar disease known as "white syndromes", many of which may be linked to species of Vibrio bacteria. While the pathogen for this disease has not been identified, Vibrio carchariae

dbo:abstract
  • La enfermedad de la banda blanca (en inglés: white band disease) es una enfermedad que afecta a los corales acropóridos y se distingue por la formación de una banda blanca de tejido de coral muerto.​ La enfermedad destruye completamente el tejido de los corales caribeños de la familia Acroporidae, particularmente coral cuerno de alce (Acropora palmata) y coral cuerno de ciervo (Acropora cervicornis).​ La enfermedad presenta una división marcada entre el tejido del coral restante y el esqueleto de coral expuesto.​ Estos síntomas son similares a la peste blanca, a excepción de que la enfermedad de la banda blanca solo se produce en los corales acropóridos, y la peste blanca no se ha encontrado en los corales acropóridos.​ Es parte de una clase de enfermedades semejantes conocidas como "síndromes blancos", muchas de las cuales pueden estar vinculadas con especies de bacterias que pertenecen al género Vibrio. Aunque el patógeno de esta enfermedad no ha sido identificado, Vibrio carchariae puede ser uno de sus factores. Por lo general la degradación del tejido comienza en la base del coral, progresando hacia las puntas de las ramas, pero puede también comenzar en medio de una rama.​ (es)

The degradation of coral tissue usually begins at the base of the coral, working its way up to the branch tips, but it can begin in the middle of a branch. (en)
