Table 1 Description of ADONIS statistical test examining the impact of lesion state on the mucus and tissue microbiomes of P. strigosa, M. cavernosa, P. astreoides, S. siderea, O. annularis, and C. natans (asterisk and bold indicated p < 0.05) for experimental mucus and experimental tissue from control vs diseased, control vs exposed (treatment corals that did not develop lesions), and exposed vs diseased corals.

From: Experimental transmission of Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease results in differential microbial responses within coral mucus and tissue
