Here, we describe a web server that integrates structural alignments with the MAFFT
multiple sequence alignment (MSA) tool. For this purpose, we have prepared a web-based …

Beneficial microorganisms for corals (BMCs) ameliorate environmental stress, but whether
they can prevent mortality and the underlying host response mechanisms remains elusive …
