Spatially resolved gene expression analysis illuminates location-specific functions in the reef-building coral <i>Pocillopora acuta</i>
2026-03-16
Abstract excerpt
Reef-building coral polyps contain multiple specialized tissue types with distinct functions, from feeding and defense to symbiosis and skeleton formation. While these cell types have been characterized microscopically and more recently via single-cell RNA sequencing, spatially resolved high-throughput gene expression profiling remains limited in corals. Here we combine Laser Capture Microdissection with RNA seque...
