Host starvation and in hospite degradation of algal symbionts shape the heat stress response of the Cassiopea-Symbiodiniaceae symbiosis

open access: yesMicrobiome
Background Global warming is causing large-scale disruption of cnidarian-Symbiodiniaceae symbioses fundamental to major marine ecosystems, such as coral reefs.

The Tara Pacific expedition-A pan-ecosystemic approach of the "-omics" complexity of coral reef holobionts across the Pacific Ocean.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2019
Coral reefs are the most diverse habitats in the marine realm. Their productivity, structural complexity, and biodiversity critically depend on ecosystem services provided by corals that are threatened because of climate change effects-in particular ...

Genomic insights into photosymbiosis in giant clams: Comparisons with coral strategies

open access: yesCurrent Biology
Giant clams are representative bivalves in coral reef ecosystems that host photosynthetic dinoflagellates extracellularly and rely on their photosynthates, functioning as "solar-powered animals." Unlike corals, which harbor intracellular dinoflagellates, molecular mechanisms and evolutionary history underlying this symbiosis remain ...

The chromosomal genome sequence of the photosymbiotic ascidian, Trididemnum clinides Kott, 1977 and its associated microbial metagenome sequences [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research
We present a genome assembly from a specimen of Trididemnum clinides (photosymbiotic ascidian; Chordata; Ascidiacea; Aplousobranchia; Didemnidae). The T. clinides genome sequence has a total length of 906.92 megabases.

Biogeochemistry of photosymbiosis in host tissues and skeletons of the species Tridacna [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Algal/invertebrate endosymbiose are common in the marine environment and appear to be nutritional in nature. The giant Tridacnid clams form a mutualistic extracellular endosymbiosis with dinoflagellate algae (zooxanthellae) of the species Symbiodiniunt microadriaticum.

Return to the light: Evolution of photosymbiosis after the end-Cretaceous mass extinction

open access: yes, 2009
The Cretaceous/Paleogene (K/Pg) mass extinction seriously affected the marine pelagic ecosystem causing >90% loss of planktonic foraminifera species.

Data from: Comparative transcriptomics revealed parallel evolution and innovation of photosymbiosis molecular mechanisms in a marine bivalve

open access: yes
<p>Photosymbioses between heterotrophic hosts and autotrophic symbionts are evolutionarily prevalent and ecologically significant. However, molecular mechanisms behind such symbioses remain less elucidated, which hinders our understanding of their ...
