An Overview on Marine Sponge-Symbiotic Bacteria as Unexhausted Sources for Natural Product Discovery (2017, methodology): “[111] noted that microbial communities from sponges have similar functional profiles that are different from the surrounding environment and core functions investigated within each sponge species revealed the presence of specific functions and interactions between host and symbiont [69,111].”
Animals in a bacterial world, a new imperative for the life sciences (2013, background): “It will be important to learn whether intercellular cohesion in sponges, which are known to harbor hundreds of bacterial species (10 – 12), similarly depends on the presence of bacteria.”
