Oxygen metabolic responses of three species of large benthic foraminifers with algal symbionts to temperature stress.

Water temperature affects the physiology of large benthic foraminifers (LBFs) with algal symbionts dwelling in coral reef environments. However, the detailed physiological responses of LBF holobionts to temperature ranges occurring in their habitats are not known. We report net oxygen (O2) productio...
