Unique Transcriptional Responses by the Sea Anemone Nematostella vectensis to Individual Bacteria: Roles for Bacterial Species, Secreted Products and the Microbiome

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 8, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Animal responses to bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms are important for understanding how host–microbe interactions lead to divergent molecular responses by the host and the assembly of the holobiont. The immune system of the animal and the resident microbial community are critical factors in the response, or lack thereof, by a host ...

Dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) metabolism within the coral holobiont

open access: yes, 2021
Felicity Kuek studied dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) metabolism within the coral holobiont focusing on the role of coral-associated bacteria in the production of DMSP, and the possible functions of its catabolic product, acrylate. She found that coral-associated bacteria are important contributors to the total pool of organic sulphur compounds ...

The Algal Symbiont Modifies the Transcriptome of the Scleractinian Coral Euphyllia paradivisa during Heat Stress

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
The profound mutualistic symbiosis between corals and their endosymbiotic counterparts, Symbiodiniaceae algae, has been threatened by the increase in seawater temperatures, leading to breakdown of the symbiotic relationship—coral bleaching.

Microbiome structure of the fungid coral Ctenactis echinataaligns with environmental differences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The significance of bacteria for eukaryotic functioning is increasingly recognized. Coral reef ecosystems critically rely on the relationship between coral hosts and their intracellular photosynthetic dinoflagellates, but the role of the associated ...

Seasonal Fluctuations of the Seagrass Holobiont under Contrasting Environmental Conditions

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
(A) The inharmonious state of the Coorong and the different sample types collect with throughout this study. (B, C) Biofilm, including the presence of diatoms and bacteria, attached on the leaves of Ruppia. ABSTRACT Microbial communities are widely recognised as indicative of ecosystem health.

Changes in the Number of Symbionts and Symbiodinium Cell Pigmentation Modulate Differentially Coral Light Absorption and Photosynthetic Performance

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
In order to understand the contribution of pigmented coral tissues to the extraordinary optical properties of the coral-symbiont-skeleton unit, we analyzed the associations between structural and optical traits for four coral species, which broadly ...

Variability in Microbial Community Composition and Function Between Different Niches Within a Coral Reef [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
To explore how microbial community composition and function varies within a coral reef ecosystem, we performed metagenomic sequencing of seawater from four niches across Heron Island Reef, within the Great Barrier Reef.
