Toxicity thresholds of nine herbicides to coral symbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) [PDF]

, 2021
Over 30 herbicides have been detected in catchments and waters of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) and their toxicity to key tropical species, including the coral endosymbiotic algae Symbiodiniaceae, is not generally considered in current water quality ...

Comparison of Symbiodiniaceae diversities in different members of a Palythoa species complex (Cnidaria: Anthozoa: Zoantharia)—implications for ecological adaptations to different microhabitats [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
In this study we compared genotypes of zoantharian host-associating algal symbionts among Palythoa species, which are among the dominant benthic reef organisms in the Ryukyu Archipelago, Japan, and evaluated Symbiodiniaceae diversities of closely related

Symbiotic Dinoflagellates of the Giant Clam, Tridacna squamosa, Express Ammonium Transporter 2 at the Plasma Membrane and Increase Its Expression Levels During Illumination

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Giant clams harbor dinoflagellates generally of the three genera (Symbiodinium, Cladocopium, and Durusdinium) of phototrophic Symbiodiniaceae. Coccoid dinoflagellates (alias zooxanthellae) are found mainly inside zooxanthellal tubules located in the ...

Depth Influences Symbiodiniaceae Associations Among Montastraea cavernosa Corals on the Belize Barrier Reef

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
In Belize, shallow populations (10 and 16 m) of the coral species Montastraea cavernosa from the back reef and reef crest are genetically differentiated from deeper populations on the fore reef and reef wall (25 and 35 m).

Metaproteome Analysis of Short‐Term Thermal Stress in Three Sympatric Coral Species Reveals Divergent Host Responses [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Short‐term thermal stress triggers distinct molecular responses in three sympatric coral species with contrasting thermal resilience. Proteomic and metabolomic profiling reveal both species‐specific and limited shared pathways underlying these stress responses.

Varied effects of algal symbionts on transcription factor NF-κB in a sea anemone and a coral: possible roles in symbiosis and thermotolerance [PDF]

, 2019
Many cnidarians, including the reef-building corals, undergo symbiotic mutualisms with photosynthetic dinoflagellate algae of the family Symbiodiniaceae.

Formal recognition of host‐generalist species of dinoflagellate (Cladocopium, Symbiodiniaceae) mutualistic with Indo‐Pacific reef corals

Journal of Phycology, 2023
AbstractThe existence of widespread species with the capacity to endure diverse, or variable, environments are of importance to ecological and genetic research, and conservation. Such “ecological generalists” are more likely to have key adaptations that allow them to better tolerate the physiological challenges of rapid climate change.

Lineage-specific symbionts mediate differential coral responses to thermal stress

Microbiome, 2023
Background Ocean warming is a leading cause of increasing episodes of coral bleaching, the dissociation between coral hosts and their dinoflagellate algal symbionts in the family Symbiodiniaceae.

Rare coral under the genomic microscope: timing and relationships among Hawaiian Montipora [PDF]

, 2019
Background Evolutionary patterns of scleractinian (stony) corals are difficult to infer given the existence of few diagnostic characters and pervasive phenotypic plasticity.

Unlocking the phylogenetic diversity, primary habitats, and abundances of free-living Symbiodiniaceae on a coral reef. [PDF]

, 2020
Dinoflagellates of the family Symbiodiniaceae form mutualistic symbioses with marine invertebrates such as reef-building corals, but also inhabit reef environments as free-living cells.
