The response of the scleractinian coral Turbinaria reniformis to thermal stress depends on the nitrogen status of the coral holobiont Eric Béraud, François Gevaert, Cécile Rottier, Christine Ferrier-Pagès Journal of Experimental Biology 2013 216: 2665-2674; doi: 10.1242/jeb.085183 (Bolding is mine, for emphasis.) In non-stressed healthy corals, it has been shown that nutrient addition (nitrogen alone or in combination with phosphorus) may negatively impact […]

The Assimilation of Diazotroph-Derived Nitrogen by Scleractinian Corals Depends on Their Metabolic Status
I knew that nitrogen-fixing microbes were a part of corals holobiont, but it’s not something I’ve read into before. This article was a great starter!
