De novo metatranscriptome assembly and coral gene expression profile of Montipora capitata with growth anomaly

Abstract Background Scleractinian corals are a vital component of coral reef ecosystems, and of significant cultural and economic value worldwide. As anthropogenic and natural stressors are contributing to a global decline of coral reefs, understanding coral health is critical to help preserve these...
