Genetic clustering within massive Porites species complex is the primary driver of holobiont assembly. [PDF]
PLoS ONEThe fate of coral reefs in response to climate change depends on their ability to adapt to new environments. The coral animal is buffered from environmental stress by its algal endosymbionts and microbial partners (together, the "holobiont").

The sponge holobiont in a changing ocean: from microbes to ecosystems [PDF]
Microbiome, 2018 The recognition that all macroorganisms live in symbiotic association with microbial communities has opened up a new field in biology. Animals, plants, and algae are now considered holobionts, complex ecosystems consisting of the host, the microbiota ...

Microbial interactions within the plant holobiont [PDF]
Microbiome, 2018 Since the colonization of land by ancestral plant lineages 450 million years ago, plants and their associated microbes have been interacting with each other, forming an assemblage of species that is often referred to as a “holobiont.” Selective pressure ...

Destabilization of mutualistic interactions shapes the early heat stress response of the coral holobiont [PDF]
MicrobiomeBackground The stability of the symbiotic relationship between coral and their dinoflagellate algae (Symbiodiniaceae) is disrupted by ocean warming. Although the coral thermal response depends on the complex interactions between host, Symbiodiniaceae and

Holobiont Evolution: Mathematical Model with Vertical vs. Horizontal Microbiome Transmission [PDF]
, 2020 A holobiont is a composite organism consisting of a host together with its microbiome, such as a coral with its zooxanthellae. To explain the often intimate integration between hosts and their microbiomes, some investigators contend that selection ...

The Intra-Dependence of Viruses and the Holobiont [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2017 Animals live in symbiosis with the microorganisms surrounding them. This symbiosis is necessary for animal health, as a symbiotic breakdown can lead to a disease state.

Holobiont–holobiont interactions across host–ectoparasite systems [PDF]
Parasites & VectorsHolobionts – hosts together with their resident microorganisms – provide a framework for studying life as a network of interdependent partners. Within host–ectoparasite holobionts, the dialogue between the two microbiomes offers powerful clues to ...

A Reference DNA Barcode Library for UK Fungi associated with Bark and Ambrosia Beetles [PDF]
Scientific DataBark and ambrosia beetles are ecologically important and widespread forest organisms. While flying between host plants and tunnelling into bark, they vector a high diversity of plant and insect-associated fungi within and between forests.
