Comparing the Role of ROS and RNS in the Thermal Stress Response of Two Cnidarian Models, <i>Exaiptasia diaphana</i> and <i>Galaxea fascicularis</i>

Coral reefs are threatened by climate change, because it causes increasingly frequent and severe summer heatwaves, resulting in mass coral bleaching and mortality. Coral bleaching is believed to be driven by an excess production of reactive oxygen (ROS) and nitrogen species (RNS), yet their relative...
