Chemically Mediated Interactions with Macroalgae Negatively Affect Coral Health but Induce Limited Changes in Coral Microbiomes

Chemically Mediated Interactions with Macroalgae Negatively Affect Coral Health but Induce Limited Changes in Coral Microbiomes

Allelopathic chemicals facilitated by the direct contact of macroalgae with corals are potentially an important mechanism mediating coral–macroalgal interactions, but only a few studies have explored their impacts on coral health and microbiomes and the coral’s ability to recover. We conducted a fie...
