From the shallow to the mesophotic: a characterization of Symbiodiniaceae diversity in the Red Sea NEOM region

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionThe northern Red Sea has been coined a refuge for reef corals due to the exceptional thermal tolerance of these organisms. With ocean warming threatening coral reefs worldwide, a panoptic characterization of corals living in extreme ...

Differential Affinities of a Pocillopora damicornis Galectin to Five Genera of Symbiodiniaceae at Different Temperatures

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The symbiosis of coral-Symbiodiniaceae is the quintessential basis of the coral reef ecosystem, and its breakdown results in coral bleaching, one of the most severe ecological catastrophes in the ocean.

Specificity trumps flexibility—location-based stable associations between Symbiodiniaceae genera and Platygyra verweyi (Scleractinia; Merulinidae) [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
This study monitored symbiont communities bi-monthly in native coral cores used in a reciprocal transplantation of the coral Platygyra verweyi over two years (2014–2016) and samples of mother colonies from three locations with variable thermal regimes ...

Diversity of Symbiodiniaceae in 15 Coral Species From the Southern South China Sea: Potential Relationship With Coral Thermal Adaptability

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
It is well-known that the adaptability of coral-Symbiodiniaceae symbiosis to thermal stress varies among coral species, but the cause and/or mechanism behind it are not well-understood. In this study, we aimed to explore this issue based on zooxanthellae

Stranger Things: Organismal Traits of Two Octocorals Associated With Singular Symbiodiniaceae in a High-Latitude Coral Community From Northern Taiwan

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Scrutinizing the traits of octocorals that could affect their physiological performance becomes increasingly important as several of these species are observed to become dominant on reefs pressured by the Anthropocene.

Symbiont Types of Scleractinian Corals in Java and Bali Waters, Indonesia

open access: yesIlmu Kelautan
Several effects of global warming, particularly coral bleaching, have threatened the symbiotic system of coral reefs. Coral reefs perform a reciprocal system that coincides with coral and their algal symbiont, the environment, and human activities ...

N-Acetyl-d-Glucosamine-Binding Lectin in Acropora tenuis Attracts Specific Symbiodiniaceae Cell Culture Strains

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2021
Many corals establish symbiosis with Symbiodiniaceae cells from surrounding environments, but very few Symbiodiniaceae cells exist in the water column.

Gene duplication is the primary driver of intraspecific genomic divergence in coral algal symbionts

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2023
Dinoflagellates in the order Suessiales include the family Symbiodiniaceae, which have essential roles as photosymbionts in corals, and their cold-adapted sister group, Polarella glacialis.

Pan-Caribbean emergence and persistence of Durusdinium spp. driven by bleaching stress

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series
The increasing severity and frequency of mass bleaching events has placed shallow-water tropical coral reefs at risk of significant decline in the coming decades. The association of endosymbiotic dinoflagellates (Family: Symbiodiniaceae) with corals is regulated by local environmental conditions along with evolutionary history and ...

Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Symbiont Colonization and Loss During Bleaching in the Model Sea Anemone Aiptasia

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The ability of symbionts to recolonize their hosts after a period of dysbiosis is essential to maintain a resilient partnership. Many cnidarians rely on photosynthate provided from a large algal symbiont population.
