The role of gene expression and symbiosis in reef-building coral acquired heat tolerance

Coral responses to ocean warming depend not only on the coral themselves, but also on their symbionts. Here, the authors experimentally assess how symbiosis and gene expression plasticity contribute to the heat stress responses of a common coral.
