A Comparative Genomics Exploration of Inter-partner Metabolic Signaling in the Coral-algal Symbiosis [PDF]
, 2020 At the foundation of coral reef ecosystems is the symbiosis between the coral host and its microbial community, particularly its photoautotrophic algae from the family Symbiodiniaceae.

Experimental evolution of the coral algal endosymbiont, Cladocopium goreaui: lessons learnt across a decade of stress experiments to enhance coral heat tolerance [PDF]
, 2021 Projected increases in sea surface temperatures will exceed corals' ability to withstand heat stress within this century. Experimental evolution of cultured symbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) at high temperatures followed by reintroduction into corals can ...

Effects of Land-based Sources of Pollution on Coral Thermotolerance [PDF]
, 2021 Phenotypic plasticity is one way that species may cope with stressful environmental changes associated with climate change. Reef building corals present a good model for studying phenotypic plasticity because they have experienced rapid climate-driven ...

The Host Coral Bleaching Response Viewed Through the Lens of Multi‐Omics
BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2026.Coral bleaching is driven by multiple inputs, with heat stress and/or high irradiance being most important. The bleaching response is multifactorial with host animal species/strain and algal symbiont genotypes being critical features. Omics readout of heat stress responses includes gene expression, proteomics, metabolite, and SNP data with transcript ...

Symbiosis and Bioinvasive Dynamics of Durusdinium trenchii and its Acroporid Coral Hosts [PDF]
, 2020 Biological invasions are a growing threat to coral reef ecosystems, as increasing anthropogenic transport and changing environmental patterns allow invasive species to establish and spread.

Can Acropora tenuis larvae attract native Symbiodiniaceae cells by green fluorescence at the initial establishment of symbiosis? [PDF]
, 2021 Most corals acquire symbiodiniacean symbionts from the surrounding environment to initiate symbiosis. The cell densities of Symbiodiniaceae in the environment are usually low, and mechanisms may exist by which new coral generations attract suitable ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.We explored fine‐scale patterns of connectivity and symbiont associations across the Ningaloo reefscape to inform on post‐disturbance recovery, larval dispersal capabilities, and recruitment dynamics. We detected low but significant population genetic structure among sample sites spread across Ningaloo Reef with the highest diversity in southern sites.

PhycologyMicroalgae are photosynthetic organisms with rapid growth and high biochemical diversity, capable of thriving in a variety of environments. Among them, dinoflagellates, particularly symbiotic species like Durusdinium glynnii, have gained attention due to their potential for biotechnological applications, especially in the production of valuable fatty ...

Cellular plasticity facilitates phenotypic change in a dominant coral’s Symbiodiniaceae assemblage [PDF]
, 2023 Coral-associated dinoflagellates (Symbiodiniaceae) are photosynthetic endosymbionts that influence coral acclimation, as indicated by photo-endosymbiotic phenotypic variance across different environmental conditions.
