Symbiodinium community composition in scleractinian corals is not affected by life-long exposure to elevated carbon dioxide.
Ocean acidification (OA) is expected to negatively affect coral reefs, however little is known about how OA will change the coral-algal symbiosis on which reefs ultimately depend. This study investigated whether there would be differences in coral Symbiodinium types in response to OA, potentially im...
