Abstract The success of coral restoration for the critically endangered Acropora palmata is understudied. Here, we examined how habitat and microbiomes influenced survivorship in four genets A. outplanted three reefs. were correlated to reef minimally genet. Carysfort Reef exhibited lowest which lower current velocity a higher relative abundance Rhodobacterales . Higher was present at Pickles highest velocity, North Dry Rocks with shallowest outplant depth. Habitat factors driven by time year such as levels nitrate, nitrite, temperature also increase putative pathogen, Alteromonadales, decrease an uncharacterized core bacteria. We suggest outplanting sites high currents, depths, concentrations nitrate/nitrite survivorship.
