Coral ReefsAbstract Animal holobionts constitute diverse yet interconnected landscapes of microenvironments that harbor specific bacterial communities with distinct functions. An increasing body of literature suggests a partitioning and distinct functional profiles of bacterial communities across shark microenvironments, which has led to the proposition
