Heat‐evolved coral photosymbionts exhibit dampened stress responses across distinct physiological contexts

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Experimental evolution under elevated temperatures has generated heat‐evolved (HE) strains of Symbiodiniaceae that enhance coral bleaching tolerance. However, the biomolecular mechanisms underlying this resilience remain poorly understood. We conducted a laboratory heat‐stress experiment and applied synchrotron‐based Fourier transform infrared (

Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Community Succession and Potential Parasitic Interactions During Two Alexandrium pacificum Blooms in Aotearoa New Zealand

Toxins
Harmful algal blooms (HABs), caused by the dinoflagellate Alexandrium pacificum, are increasingly frequent in the Marlborough Sounds, an important aquaculture region in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Even a slight temperature increase triggers the inhibition of Symbiodiniaceae cell division and promotes cell expulsion in the coral Acropora selago

Phycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY Coral bleaching, characterized by the loss of Symbiodiniaceae symbionts from corals, is promoted both by acute high‐temperature events and by prolonged moderate thermal stress. However, the mechanisms responsible for decreases in Symbiodiniaceae cell densities within corals remain unclear. Symbiodiniaceae cells within corals proliferate through

Toxic and non-toxic dinoflagellates host distinct bacterial communities in their phycospheres

Communications Earth & Environment, 2023
Dinoflagellates encompass highly abundant and diverse toxin-producing species among marine phytoplankton. Previous works suggested that some bacterial taxa may affect toxins production in dinoflagellates, however, little is known about impact of toxic ...

Primary productivity coupled to oxic methane production in coastal waters of southern China

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Oxic methane (CH4) production (OMP) occurs in diverse oxygenated surface waters worldwide. However, phytoplankton‐driven OMP in natural marine environments remains poorly documented. During a research cruise in the highly productive southern East China Sea, we measured OMP by incubating phytoplankton‐rich surface waters and found that CH4 ...

Transformation of Phytoplankton Communities in the High Arctic: Ecological Properties of Species

Diversity
During the 84th cruise of the R/V Akademik Mstislav Keldysh in August 2021, patterns of phytoplankton composition transformation were revealed along a northward gradient. The study involved three transects in the Fram Strait and adjacent Arctic waters: a

The artistry of dinoflagellate bioluminescence [PDF]

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2017
Dinoflagellates are unicellular organisms responsible for many spectacular displays of coastal bioluminescence. This phenomenon is both scientifically interesting and aesthetically beautiful. As part of my efforts to communicate my science to the general public, I developed an Artist-in-Residence program, offering artists the opportunity for direct ...

Unifying Retaria Research: A Common Framework for Studying Foraminifera and Radiolaria

BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 6, June 2026.
Research on Foraminifera and Radiolaria has predominantly focused on their fossil remains. This synthesis identifies the “Big Five” disciplines of a unified Retaria research: diversity and evolution, ecology, life cycles, and ecosystem roles, highlighting this lineage as a model system for understanding life's resilience in a rapidly changing planet ...
