Insights into the Coral Microbiome: Underpinning the Health and Resilience of Reef Ecosystems.
Annual Review of Microbiology, 2016 Corals are fundamental ecosystem engineers, creating large, intricate reefs that support diverse and abundant marine life. At the core of a healthy coral animal is a dynamic relationship with microorganisms, including a mutually beneficial symbiosis with
