SUMMARY
One trait that enables sponges to exploit new habitats is their symbiotic state, an emergent property of sponge host-microbial co-evolutionary histories that determines the functional ecology of sponges and affects the ecological outcomes for sponges on coral reefs. Other studies using compound-specific isotopic analysis of amino_acids (CSIA-AA) on sponges have shown little dependence on photoautotrophy for shallow and mesophotic sponges, with either no dependence on POM, or the consumption of DOM and translocation of essential_amino_acids from the bacterial symbionts to the host, with or without POM consumption. The microbiome of . . .
