Coral Reefs, 2020 Urban coral reefs are regarded as marginal communities that live under localized conditions considered detrimental for coral survival, such as high sediment load. They are also impacted by global environmental changes, especially increases in sea surface temperatures.

Symbioses are restructured by repeated mass coral bleaching [PDF]
, 2022 Survival of symbiotic reef-building corals under global warming requires rapid acclimation or adaptation. The impact of accumulated heat stress was compared across 1643 symbiont communities before and after the 2016 mass bleaching in three coral species ...

Unique quantitative Symbiodiniaceae signature of coral colonies revealed through spatio-temporal survey in Moorea [PDF]
, 2019 One of the mechanisms of rapid adaptation or acclimatization to environmental changes in corals is through the dynamics of the composition of their associated endosymbiotic Symbiodiniaceae community.

Symbiont Community Diversity is More Variable in Corals That Respond Poorly to Stress [PDF]
, 2020 Coral reefs are declining globally as climate change and local water quality press environmental conditions beyond the physiological tolerances of holobionts—the collective of the host and its microbial symbionts.

Diversity and distribution of Symbiodiniaceae detected on coral reefs of Lombok, Indonesia using environmental DNA metabarcoding [PDF]
, 2022 Background Dinoflagellates of family Symbiodiniaceae are important to coral reef ecosystems because of their contribution to coral health and growth; however, only a few studies have investigated the function and distribution of Symbiodiniaceae in ...
