Synergistic effects of temperature and light affect the relationship between Taonia atomaria and its epibacterial community: a mesocosm study

This study aimed to assess the effect of combined conditions of temperature and irradiance on the macroalgal Taonia atomaria holobiont dynamics. We developed an experimental approach using mesocosm with three temperatures combined with three irradiances monitored at three sampling times (24h, 7 days and 14 days) with a multi-omics approach coupling algal surface metabolomics and metabarcoding.
