The term ‘holobiont’ refers to a multicellular organism and its microbial symbionts. Whether and how symbionts react to host injury and how cellular responses are integrated across species remain unexplored. Here, the authors report a deeply conserved animal regeneration regulatory program that links molecular networks across species in an animal-algal holobiont.
