Endosymbiont Communities in Pachyseris speciosa Highlight Geographical and Methodological Variations
Reef-building corals live in symbiosis with the phototrophic dinoflagellate family Symbiodiniaceae, which comprises diverse genera such as Cladocopium and Durusdinium.

Symbiodiniaceae and Bacterial Microbiome Dynamics Differentially Impact the Survival of Dominant Reef-Flat Porites Corals. [PDF]
DNA metabarcoding revealed significant shifts in the dominant Symbiodiniaceae and bacteria of Porites spp. undergoing transplantation. Porites lobata colonies that experienced shifts in their microbial communities had higher coral colony partial mortality 18 weeks after transplantation.

Symbiont shuffling dynamics associated with photodamage during temperature stress in coral symbiosis
Reef-building corals usually form a symbiotic relationship with various photosynthetic dinoflagellates, which may determine the physiology and stress tolerance of their hosts.

Exploring the potential function of dimethylsulfoniopropionate and its by-product acrylate within the coral holobiont [PDF]
Geoffrey Yau studied the potential function of dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) and acrylate in coral recruits. He found hosting Symbiodiniaceae enhanced Acropora growth and DMSP level. This study provided fundamental understanding of DMSP production in

Cladocopium community divergence in two Acropora coral hosts across multiple spatial scales [PDF]
Abstract Many broadly‐dispersing corals acquire their algal symbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) “horizontally” from their environment upon recruitment. Horizontal transmission could promote coral fitness across diverse environments provided that corals can associate with divergent algae across their range and that these ...

Coral Skeletal Cores as Windows Into Past Symbiodiniaceae Community Dynamics. [PDF]
Stony corals rely on their association with symbiotic algae for their growth and health. However, corals can lose these symbionts in response to heat stress and bleach, but they can also recover from bleaching and associate with new, more tolerant symbionts.

Coral Holobionts Possess Distinct Lipid Profiles That May Be Shaped by Symbiodiniaceae Taxonomy
Symbiotic relationships are very important for corals. Abiotic stressors cause the acclimatization of cell membranes in symbionts, which possess different membrane acclimatization strategies. Membrane stability is determined by a unique lipid composition

Co-dynamics of Symbiodiniaceae and bacterial populations during the first year of symbiosis with Acropora tenuis juveniles [PDF]
MicrobiologyOpen published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Interactions between corals and their associated microbial communities (Symbiodiniaceae and prokaryotes) are key to understanding corals' potential for and rate of acclimatory and adaptive responses.

Gates lab qPCR protocol for Cladocopium and DurusdiniumSymbiodiniaceae detection v1 [PDF]
The purpose of this protocol is to quantify Cladocopium and Durusdinium Symbiodiniaceae cell ratio densities (symbiont to host cell ratios) from individual coral DNA samples using the StepOnePlus™ Real-Time PCR System. It allows for a quick assessment of the symbiont community composition and ratio using targeted primers.
