Population Dynamic of Dendronephthya sp.-Associated Bacteria in Natural and Artificial Habitats
Dendronephthya sp. is a soft coral that has huge distribution starting from Indopacific, Tonga, Solomon Islands to Great Barrier Reef in Australia. However, this soft corals survive only in short period after cultivation in artificial habitat (aquarium). Recent study showed that the soft coral Dendr...
