Table 4. Summary of bacterial taxa (OTUs) associated with black band disease (BBD) in corals from the southern central Red Sea and comparison with similar taxa from around the world, based on BLAST results (accession number, identity) of the BBD consortium of sulfide-oxidizing bacteria (SOB), sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), cyanobacteria, Firmicutes, and Vibrio sp.
