Introduction Exaiptasia diaphana is a popular model organism for exploring the symbiotic
relationship observed between cnidarians and their microsymbionts. While physiological …

Scleractinian corals are the main framework-building groups in tropical coral reefs. In the
coral holobiont, nitrogen-cycling mediated by microbes is fundamental for sustaining the …

Symbiotic interactions between Symbiodiniaceae and bacteria are still poorly explored,
especially those in hospite. Here, we adapted a technique that allows for the enrichment of …

Symbiotic associations between marine invertebrates and microbes have been found in
various ecosystems ranging from coral reefs (Figure 1) in shallow coastal waters to …

Coral reefs stand out as exceptionally diverse ecosystems globally, serving crucial roles as
nurseries and nutrient sources for marine life. Beyond their significance for marine …
