β-diversity of the coral microbiome communities throughout the coral microbiome transplantation experiments. The effects of the inoculation procedure (“I” vs. “C”) and the effects of subsequent heat exposure (“29 °C” vs. “34 °C”) on microbiome communities of “I” recipients and the “C” (FSW sterile-filtered seawater) control group are shown for a, b Pocillopora sp. and c, d Porites sp. Non-metric Multidimensional Scaling (nMDS) plots show microbiome communities based on Bray-Curtis dissimilarities. Group differences based on dissimilarities and dispersion were tested using PERMANOVA and BETADISPER analysis and p and F values are reported
