Coral and Algae Symbiosis
- Algae within coral tissues are vital for coral health and marine ecosystems.
- Healthy corals appear brown due to algae presence; stress can lead to algae loss, causing bleaching.
- After bleaching, corals produce bright colors to block sunlight, promoting recolonization of algae.
Tadpole Competition and Toxin Production
- Research by Veronika Bókony focused on common toad (Bufo bufo) tadpoles and their toxin production in response to competition.
- Different population densities were tested with a fixed food supply to study effects on growth and toxin levels.
- Findings suggest increased competition enhances bufadienolide production but hinders growth among tadpoles.
