Corals serve as a host to algae, which in turn produces sugars that the corals consume. Now, though, scientists have created 3D-printed coral that's even more algae-friendly than its natural ...
With another El Niño expected in 2026, only a short time after the last one, many reefs will not have had sufficient time to ...
One of the ways coral reacts to abnormal sea temperatures is by expelling tiny algae that lives in its tissues, a process that drives the type of bleaching events that have devastated Australia’s ...

New Israeli research shows coral reefs shape the ebb and flow of local microbial life
Like in humans, microbe levels can indicate health of ecosystem, say scientists from Hebrew University of Jerusalem and ...
Corals live symbiotically with a variety of microscopic algae that provide most of the energy corals require, and some algae can make coral more resilient to heat stress. In assessing one of the main ...
Australia's Great Barrier Reef might be able to survive warming sea temperatures, as a result of global warming, better than first thought because some coral algae are more heat tolerant, Australian ...
Coral reefs form as a partnership between sea anemone-like polyps and photosynthetic algae that provides nutrients for the former and safe, well-lit shelter for the latter. But this alliance might not ...
Biologists reveals how coral cells tag friendly algae before ingesting them, initiating a mutually beneficial relationship. This information could guide next-level coral conservation efforts. New ...
The physical interactions between coral and algal cells as they combine to form a symbiotic relationship have been observed for the first time. Within minutes of being introduced, coral cells had ...
Corals can develop new symbiotic relationships with algae from their environments after they've undergone bleaching, the process by which corals whiten as a result of environmental stress, UB ...
July 14 (UPI) --For the first time, scientists have witnessed coral cells enveloping dinoflagellates, single-celled, photosynthetic algae. Scientists in Japan added individual cells cultured from the ...
