Evolutionary genomics predicts probiotic persistence in corals

A universal bottleneck limiting probiotic efficacy in medicine, aquaculture, agriculture, and wildlife conservation is uncertain long-term colonization, necessitating repeated administration.

A universal bottleneck limiting probiotic efficacy in medicine, aquaculture, agriculture, and wildlife conservation is uncertain long-term colonization, necessitating repeated administration. We present an evolution-guided framework for probiotic identification based on genomic…
