Scientists have created the first comprehensive map of the Great Barrier Reef's open-water microbiome by analysing DNA from 48 reefs. The study identified 584 previously unknown bacterial species and more than 362,000 viruses. Researchers say the database could help monitor reef health and detect environmental changes before visible damage appears.
