Global biogeography of chemosynthetic symbionts reveals both localized and globally distributed symbiont groups
JT Osvatic, LGE Wilkins, L Leibrecht… - Proceedings of the …, 2021 - National Acad Sciences
In the ocean, most hosts acquire their symbionts from the environment. Due to the immense
spatial scales involved, our understanding of the biogeography of hosts and symbionts in …
