Subsequently, homologous zoo- xanthellae persisted at the highest densities. Homolo- gous zooxanthellae were present at significantly greater densities than any of the heterologous strains at 2 days (Bonferroni post-hoc ANOVA, P < ). Short-term infection patterns by heterologous zooxan- thellae were similar to one another, with the only major difference being the relatively low uptake of zooxanthel- lae from A. bal/ii. Zooxanthellae from A. ballii were pres- ent at significantly lower densities than zooxanthellae from /. sulcatus at 4 h (Bonferroni post-hoc ANOVA, P <). Long-term persistence of zooxanthellae Figure 2 summarizes the densities of zooxanthellae 2, 4, 6, 8, and 36 weeks after reinfection (, over the long- term), and the density of zooxanthellae in naturally in- fected C. pedunculatus. Homologous zooxanthellae persisted at significantly greater densities than any of the heterologous zooxan- thellae at 2 and 6 we
