Diverse H2O2-scavenging phenotypes of coral-associated bacteria reveal candidates for bleaching mitigation
There is growing interest in manipulating coral-associated bacteria to enhance coral thermal bleaching tolerance. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), particularly hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), are major drivers of coral bleaching, therefore, coral-associated bacteria capable of scavenging H2O2 may help reduce bleaching. Bacterial candidates are commonly selected through genome inference and occasionally…
