How is coral physiology & symbioses affected by domestication & water quality during coral restoration? 🌏 🧪
A recent study explored these intricacies & found:
🪸Host species-specific responses
🧬Shifts in symbiont associations
🧪Altered growth & diet

Terrible news today:
This year, one-third of coral cover has been destroyed in two northern sections of the Great Barrier reef due to anthropogenic heating.
Results for the southern sections (which were even hotter) have not been officially released.

Our paper on resource competition in the cnidarian-algal symbiosis is finally out. shorturl.at/gklxP we show that host and symbiont use photosynthates to fix ammonium. The resulting resource competition shapes the phenotype and defines ecological niche of the symbiosis. @reefgenomics.bsky.social 🪸🦠🔬
