Metabolic co-dependence drives the evolutionarily ancient Hydra–Chlorella symbiosis

Many multicellular organisms rely on symbiotic associations for support of metabolic activity, protection, or energy. Understanding the mechanisms involved in controlling such interactions remains a major challenge. In an unbiased approach we identified key players that control the symbiosis between...
