Role of microorganisms in the evolution of animals and plants: the hologenome theory of evolution.
TL;DR: The hologenome theory of evolution considers the holobiont (the animal or plant with all of its associated microorganisms) as a unit of selection in evolution and fits within the framework of the 'superorganism' proposed by Wilson and Sober.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of microorganisms in coral health, disease and evolution.
TL;DR: Generalization of the coral probiotic hypothesis has led to the hologenome theory of evolution, which proposes the occurrence of a dynamic relationship between symbiotic microorganisms and corals that selects for the coral holobiont that is best suited for the prevailing environmental conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Coral Probiotic Hypothesis
TL;DR: The Coral Probiotic Hypothesis posits that a dynamic relationship exists between symbiotic microorganisms and environmental conditions which brings about the selection of the most advantageous coral holobiont.
