Octocorals in the Gulf of Aqaba exhibit high photosymbiont fidelity by Ronen Liberman, Ronen Liberman, Yehuda Benayahu, Dorothée Huchon, Dorothée Huchon

“…Here, we used ribosomal (ITS2) and chloroplast (23S) markers to uncover, for the first time, the dominant Symbiodiniaceae taxa present in 19 mesophotic octocoral species (30–70 m depth) from the Gulf of Aqaba/Eilat (northern Red Sea). In addition, using high-throughput sequencing of the ITS2 region we characterized both the dominant and the rare Symbiodiniaceae lineages found in several species across depth. …”
