Species-specific control of external superoxide levels by the coral holobiont during a natural bleaching event

Corals may vary in their ability to regulate reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can influence coral health. Diaz and colleagues conductin vivomeasurements of the ROS superoxide at the surface of corals and find substantial species-level variation in superoxide regulation that is independent of bleac...
