🧬 New study reveals unique metabolic fingerprints across coral species! M. meandrites shows lowest metabolic variation & highest anti-pathogen activity. Key finding: symbiont-derived compounds drive species differences. #CoralScience #MicroSky pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39560405/
Metabolomic profiles of stony coral species from the Dry Tortugas National Park display inter- and intraspecies variation - PubMed
Previous research profiling gene expression, proteins, and metabolites produced during thermal stress have reported the importance of endosymbiont-derived pathways in coral bleaching resistance. Howev...

Behold a groovy brain coral! This species, Diploria labrynthiformis, has been having a hard time surviving across the Caribbean. We hope we can continue to help grow little babies to help repopulate the reefs. #MarineLife #CoralScience 🪸

I spend some of my free time gathering photos of baby corals under the microscope because I find them irresistibly cute!
Everyone should see how adorable these little animals are in their first few months, plus their dramatic fluorescence patterns are stunning. 🌊🪸🔬 #MarineLife #CoralScience

When we say “thermally tolerant corals,” who’s actually doing the tolerating?
The coral animal?
The algae inside it?
The answer’s juicy, and it matters for potentially cultivating super reefs. 🧵
