Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Holobionts formed by a host organism and associated symbionts are key biological units in marine ecosystems where they are responsible for fundamental ecosystem services. Therefore, understanding anthropogenic impacts on holobionts is essential. Sponges (

Symbiont diversity is not involved in depth acclimation in the Mediterranean sea whip Eunicella singularis [PDF]
, 2011 In symbiotic cnidarians, acclimation to depth and lower irradiance can involve physiological changes in the photosynthetic dinoflagellate endosymbiont, such as increased chlorophyll content, or qualitative modifications in the symbiont population in ...

Progress and future directions for seaweed holobiont research.
New PhytologistIn the marine environment, seaweeds (i.e. marine macroalgae) provide a wide range of ecological services and economic benefits. Like land plants, seaweeds do not provide these services in isolation, rather they rely on their associated microbial ...

A de novo approach to disentangle partner identity and function in holobiont systems
Microbiome, 2018 Background Study of meta-transcriptomic datasets involving non-model organisms represents bioinformatic challenges. The production of chimeric sequences and our inability to distinguish the taxonomic origins of the sequences produced are inherent and ...

Microbial symbionts : a resource for the management of insect-related problems [PDF]
, 2011 Microorganisms establish with their animal hosts close interactions. They are involved in many aspects of the host life, physiology and evolution, including nutrition, reproduction, immune homeostasis, defence and speciation.

Shared governance in the plant holobiont and implications for one health
FEMS Microbiology EcologyThe holobiont Holobiont theory is more than 80 years old, while the importance of microbial communities for plant holobionts was already identified by Lorenz Hiltner more than a century ago.

Understanding Asthma and Allergies by the Lens of Biodiversity and Epigenetic Changes
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Exposure to different organisms (bacteria, mold, virus, protozoan, helminths, among others) can induce epigenetic changes affecting the modulation of immune responses and consequently increasing the susceptibility to inflammatory diseases.

The trace metal economy of the coral holobiont: supplies, demands and exchanges
Biological Reviews of The Cambridge Philosophical Society, 2022 The juxtaposition of highly productive coral reef ecosystems in oligotrophic waters has spurred substantial interest and progress in our understanding of macronutrient uptake, exchange, and recycling among coral holobiont partners (host coral ...

Comparative genome-centric analysis reveals seasonal variation in the function of coral reef microbiomes [PDF]
, 2020 Microbially mediated processes contribute to coral reef resilience yet, despite extensive characterisation of microbial community variation following environmental perturbation, the effect on microbiome function is poorly understood.
