Astute algae, conned corals
Elie Dolgin | Mar 30, 2009 | 3 min read
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 start off as a true joint venture. New research published online earlier this month in__ linkurl:Molecular Ecology;http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/122268905/abstract __indicates that symbiotic algae sneak inside coral cells in a stealth manner, rather than being actively welcomed by thei
