Symbiotic specificity, association patterns, and function determine community responses to global changes: Defining critical research areas for coral-symbiodinium symbioses

Climate change-driven stressors threaten the persistence of coral reefs worldwide. Symbiotic relationships between scleractinian corals and photosynthetic endosymbionts (genus Symbiodinium) are the foundation of reef ecosystems, and these associations are differentially impacted by stress. Here, we...
