Microbiome dynamics in the tissue and mucus of acroporid corals differ in relation to host and environmental parameters

Corals are associated with diverse microbial assemblages; however, the spatial-temporal dynamics of intra-species microbial interactions are poorly understood. The coral-associated microbial community varies substantially between tissue and mucus microhabitats; however, the factors controlling the o...
