Corals host numerous organisms, of which viruses are the least studied. The aim of this project is to characterise the viruses associated with corals and to obtain a detailed understanding of the critical roles that viruses play in coral health, coral bleaching and adaptation of corals to climate change.

珊瑚有许多生物体，其中对病毒的研究最少。该项目的目的是确定与珊瑚有关的病毒的特征，并详细了解病毒在珊瑚健康、珊瑚漂白和珊瑚适应气候变化方面发挥的关键作用。
