HOW OUTPLANTING IMPACTS MICROBIOMES

Corals associate with a variety of microbes (including symbiotic algae and bacteria) that are fundamental to health – this can be either positively by providing essential nutrients, or negatively by acting as pathogens. We examine how growing and out-planting coral across diverse environments impacts their “microbiome” and in turn healthy functioning.
