Different functional traits among closely related algal symbionts dictate stress endurance for vital Indo‐Pacific reef‐building corals
Reef‐building corals in the genus Porites are one of the most important constituents of Indo‐
Pacific reefs. Many species within this genus tolerate abnormally warm water and exhibit …
