Lineage-specific symbionts mediate differential coral responses to thermal stress

open access: yesMicrobiome, 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.

What is a hologenomic adaptation? Emergent individuality and inter-identity in multispecies systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Contemporary biological research has suggested that some host–microbiome multispecies systems (referred to as “holobionts”) can in certain circumstances evolve as unique biological individual, thus being a unit of selection in evolution.

Evidence for phosphonate usage in the coral holobiont [PDF]

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2009
Abstract Phosphonates are characterized by a stable carbon–phosphorus bond and commonly occur as lipid conjugates in invertebrate cell membranes. Phosphonoacetate hydrolase encoded by the phnA gene, catalyses the cleavage of phosphonoacetate to acetate and phosphate.

Climate change promotes parasitism in a coral symbiosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Coastal oceans are increasingly eutrophic, warm and acidic through the addition of anthropogenic nitrogen and carbon, respectively. Among the most sensitive taxa to these changes are scleractinian corals, which engineer the most biodiverse ecosystems on ...

Limited influence of seasonality on coral microbiomes and endosymbionts in an equatorial reef

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Coral-associated bacteria and Symbiodiniaceae are critical for maintaining the health of their coral hosts. Factors that are known to affect the coral microbiome include biogeography, seasonality, and environmental change, but longitudinal studies are ...

The extended phenotypes of marine symbioses: ecological and evolutionary consequences of intraspecific genetic diversity in coral-algal associations

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Reef-building corals owe much of their success to a symbiosis with dinoflagellate microalgae in the genus Symbiodinium. In this association, the performance of each organism is tied to that of its partner, and together the partners form a holobiont that

Multi-omics determination of metabolome diversity in natural coral populations in the Pacific Ocean

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2023
Coral reefs are considered one of the most emblematic ecosystems in our oceans, but their existence is increasingly threatened by climate change. In this study, natural populations of two reef-building coral genera, Pocillopora spp. and Porites spp., and

Marinomonas brasilensis sp. nov., isolated from the coral Mussismilia hispida, and reclassification of Marinomonas basaltis as a later heterotypic synonym of Marinomonas communis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A Gram-negative, aerobic bacterium, designated strain R-40503(T), was isolated from mucus of the reef-builder coral Mussismilia hispida, located in the Sao Sebastiao Channel, Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Integrative omics framework for characterization of coral reef ecosystems from the Tara Pacific expedition

open access: yesScientific Data, 2023
Coral reef science is a fast-growing field propelled by the need to better understand coral health and resilience to devise strategies to slow reef loss resulting from environmental stresses.
