Recovery from bleaching is mediated by threshold densities of background thermo-tolerant symbiont types in a reef-building coral

Sensitive molecular analyses show that most corals host a complement of Symbiodinium genotypes that includes thermo-tolerant types in low abundance. While tolerant symbiont types are hypothesized to facilitate tolerance to temperature and recovery from bleaching, empirical data on their distribution...
