Fig. 1: Distribution and abundance profiles of E. acroporae strains in the Red Sea, Saudi Arabia; Penghu Archipelago, Taiwan; and eastern and western Australian coral reefs.

The green color in pie charts represents relative abundance of E. acroporae strains (identified at ≥99% identity and e-value < 1e–5) in coral microbial communities as assessed by 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing.
