Highly effective energy transfer in the autotroph-heterotroph symbiosis: insights from compound-specific isotope analysis of amino acids

Abstract Many species establish symbiotic partnerships with different organisms to benefit energetically from living together to fit into environments, and such symbiosis is frequently found in the modern ocean as well as throughout Earth’s history. For example, coral reef ecosystems represent one o...
