Coral microbiome diversity reflects mass coral bleaching susceptibility during the 2016 El Niño heat wave

Abstract Repeat marine heat wave‐induced mass coral bleaching has decimated reefs in Seychelles for 35 years, but how coral‐associated microbial diversity (microalgal endosymbionts of the family Symbiodiniaceae and bacterial communities) potentially underpins broad‐scale bleaching dynamics remains u...
