Description

Scleractinian corals, which form the building blocks of tropical reefs, are reliant on a mutualistic symbiosis with phototrophic dinoflagellates of the family Symbiodiniaceae for their metabolic needs and survival. Unfortunately, when subjected to environmental stress this symbiosis can destabilise, culminating in coral bleaching (the loss of symbionts from coral tissue). The most prominent cause of coral bleaching is elevated sea surface temperatures as a result of global warming. However, l...
