摘要
珊瑚是地球上最古老的海洋生物之一,由于环境污染,全球珊瑚种类及数量急剧减少。本文介绍了珊瑚培养的最新研究,从研究内容、研究过程和研究意义等方面对珊瑚的培养进行了说明。Studying corals usually requires either observing them alive in the ocean or examining their dead tissue in a laboratory.But new research offers a way to keep all coral cell types alive in a lab culture for two weeks or longer,opening novel experimental possibilities.
