Bacterial Communities Vary from Different Scleractinian Coral Species and between Bleached and Non-Bleached Corals

ABSTRACT Bleaching is one of the most relevant factors implicated in the integrity of coral reef ecosystems, with the increasing frequency and intensity of damaging events representing a serious threat to reef biodiversity. Here, we analyzed changes in coral-associated bacteria from three types of n...
