Advanced imaging reveals new details of coral-algae relationship

Findings expand understanding of ecologically important animal-microbe relationship

Researchers at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography have discovered a novel molecular process that corals use to control the subcellular environment of the algae that live inside them.

A specialized protein controls the fluctuating day-to-night transfer of nitrogen and carbon dioxide through the corals’ cellular membranes to the algae. The process …
