In order to reveal the differential mechanisms of tolerance to coral diseases, we investigated the Favites sp. and Poccillopora related fungus and Symbiodiniaceae by ITS.
As a well-known pseudo-persistent environmental pollutant, oxybenzone (BP-3) and its related organic ultraviolet (UV) filters have been verified to directly contribute to the increasing mortality rate
The persistence of coral reef ecosystems relies on the symbiotic relationship between scleractinian corals and intracellular, photosynthetic dinoflagellates in the genus Symbiodinium. Genetic evidence
