Competition and succession among coral endosymbionts. [PDF]
Reef‐building corals rely on a genetically diverse group of dinoflagellate symbionts to meet their nutritional needs. The ecological mechanisms that regulate symbiont communities are not well understood. Here, we show that competition and succession among symbiont species are important in the early stages of the symbiosis.

Excavatolide C has oxidative-stress-dependent antiproliferative and apoptotic effects against breast cancer cells [PDF]
Background Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) shows a poor response to targeted therapy drugs for non-triple-negative breast cancer (non-TNBC). Developing anticancer drugs that are effective for both TNBC and non-TNBC cells is necessary.
