Fine‐Scale Geographic Variation of Cladocopium in Acropora hyacinthus Across the Palauan Archipelago [PDF]
Symbiont genotype plays a vital role in the ability of a coral host to tolerate rising ocean temperatures, with some members of the family Symbiodiniaceae possessing more thermal tolerance than others.

Differential Affinities of a Pocillopora damicornis Galectin to Five Genera of Symbiodiniaceae at Different Temperatures [PDF]
The symbiosis of coral-Symbiodiniaceae is the quintessential basis of the coral reef ecosystem, and its breakdown results in coral bleaching, one of the most severe ecological catastrophes in the ocean.

Dinoflagellates of the family Symbiodiniaceae are crucial photosymbionts in corals and other marine organisms. Of these, Cladocopium goreaui is one of the most dominant symbiont species in the Indo-Pacific. Here, we present an improved genome assembly of

Multi-gene incongruence consistent with hybridisation in Cladocopium (Symbiodiniaceae), an ecologically important genus of coral reef symbionts [PDF]
Coral reefs rely on their intracellular dinoflagellate symbionts (family Symbiodiniaceae) for nutritional provision in nutrient-poor waters, yet this association is threatened by thermally stressful conditions. Despite this, the evolutionary potential of

Diversity of Three Small Type’s Giant Clams and Their Associated Endosymbiotic Symbiodiniaceae at Hainan and Xisha Islands, South China Sea [PDF]
Giant clams are found in a mutualistic association with Symbiodiniaceae dinoflagellates, however, the diversity of the giant clams, as well as the diversity and distribution of Symbiodiniaceae in different Tridacnine species remain relatively poorly ...

Responses of the Coral Symbiont Cladocopium goreaui to Extreme Temperature Stress in Relatively High-Latitude Reefs, South China Sea [PDF]
Global climate change has led to frequent extreme temperature events in oceans. Corals are susceptible to extreme high-temperature stress in summer and extreme low-temperature stress in winter in the relatively high-latitude reef areas of the South China Sea (SCS).

Giant clams harbor coccoid Symbiodiniaceae dinoflagellates that are phototrophic. These dinoflagellates generally include multiple phylotypes (species) of Symbiodinium, Cladocopium, and Durusdinium in disparate proportions depending on the environmental conditions. The coccoid symbionts can share photosynthate with the clam host, which in return supply

Unravelling photosynthesis and nitrogen assimilation in Cladocopium algal inhabiting marine Fraginae (Cardiidae) cockles [PDF]
Photosymbiosis between dinoflagellate algae of the family Symbiodiniaceae and marine invertebrates has powered coral reef productivity for millions of years.

Mutualistic associations with symbiotic dinoflagellates (zooxanthellae) enable invertebrate hosts to thrive in tropical waters that are shallow and oligotrophic. Giant clams can harbor multiple species of symbiotic dinoflagellates (Family: Symbiodiniaceae) from mainly three genera, Symbiodinium, Cladocopium and Durusdinium, but whether they have ...
