Coral Symbiodinium community composition across the Belize Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System is influenced by host species and thermal variability

Justin H. Baumann, Sarah W. Davies, Hannah E. Aichelman, Karl D. Castillo

The paper examines Symbiodinium community composition in three coral species across thermal regimes in the Belize Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System, finding thermal regime influences vary by host species.
