Interactive effects of acidification and copper exposure on the reproduction and metabolism of coral endosymbiont Cladocopium goreaui

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2022
Ocean acidification resulting from increased CO2 and pollution from land-sourced toxicants such as copper have been linked to coral cover declines in coastal reef ecosystems. The impacts of ocean acidification and copper pollution on corals have been intensively investigated, whereas research on their effects on coral endosymbiont Symbiodiniaceae is ...

Shuffling between Cladocopium and Durusdinium extensively modifies the physiology of each symbiont without stressing the coral host

Molecular Ecology, 2021
Abstract As sea surface temperatures increase, many coral species that used to harbour symbionts of the genus Cladocopium have become colonized with the thermally tolerant genus, Durusdinium .

Physiological and molecular responses to urea environment in Cladocopium goreaui (Symbiodiniaceae)

Environmental Research
Nitrogen is an essential nutrient for photosynthetic productivity, and its enrichment in coral reef ecosystems due to anthropogenic activities has raised concerns about ecological impacts. Urea is a readily available nitrogen source that can influence nitrogen dynamics in coral reef ecosystems, but the underlying mechanisms of its assimilation and ...

Color disparity enhances the toxic effects of polystyrene microplastics on Cladocopium goreaui

Marine Pollution Bulletin
Coral reef ecosystems are increasingly threatened by environmental stressors, with microplastics (MPs) emerging as a pervasive and harmful contaminant. As essential symbionts of reef-building corals, Symbiodiniaceae are vital to coral health; however, their physiological responses to MPs remain largely unexplored.

Polystyrene Microplastics Exhibit Toxic Effects on the Widespread Coral Symbiont Cladocopium Goreaui

Environmental Research
Within the coral reef habitat, members of the Symbiodiniaceae family stand as pivotal symbionts for reef-building corals. However, the physiological response of Symbiodiniaceae on microplastics are still poorly understood. Research conducted in this investigation assessed the harmful impact of polystyrene microparticles (PS-MPs) on Cladocopium goreaui,

Optimising cell hybridisation of symbiotic microalgae (Cladocopium proliferum)

Coral reefs are among the most diverse and iconic ecosystems. Over recent decades, coral reefs have declined significantly due to climate change resulting in an increased frequency and severity of summer heat waves. Corals live in symbiosis with single-celled microalgae, which play a vital role in providing their host with nutrients and also influence ...

Coral‐associated Symbiodiniaceae exhibit host specificity but lack phylosymbiosis, with Cladocopium and Durusdinium showing different cophylogenetic patterns

New Phytologist
Summary Altering the composition of the Symbiodiniaceae community to adapt to anomalous sea water warming represents a potential survival mechanism for scleractinian corals. However, the processes of Symbiodiniaceae assembly and long‐standing evolution of coral–Symbiodiniaceae interactions remain unclear.
