Algal Symbiont Diversity and Host Fitness Variation in Amoebozoan Photosymbiosis [PDF]
Journal of Eukaryotic MicrobiologyABSTRACT Photosymbioses, the symbiotic relationships between microalgae and non‐photosynthetic eukaryotes, are sporadically found in many eukaryotic lineages. Only a few taxa, such as cnidarians and ciliates hosting algal endosymbionts, have been actively studied, which has hindered understanding the universal mechanisms of photosymbiosis establishment.

Photosymbiosis for Biomedical Applications [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 Without the sustained provision of adequate levels of oxygen by the cardiovascular system, the tissues of higher animals are incapable of maintaining normal metabolic activity, and hence cannot survive.

Photosymbiosis shaped animal genome architecture and gene evolution as revealed in giant clams [PDF]
Communications BiologySymbioses are major drivers of organismal diversification and phenotypic innovation. However, how long-term symbioses shape whole genome evolution in metazoans is still underexplored.

Coral photosymbiosis on Mid-Devonian reefs. [PDF]
Nature, 2023 The ability of stony corals to thrive in the oligotrophic (low-nutrient, low-productivity) surface waters of the tropical ocean is commonly attributed to their symbiotic relationship with photosynthetic dinoflagellates1,2.

Detecting Photosymbiosis in Fossil Scleractinian Corals [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 The evolutionary success of reef-building corals is often attributed to photosymbiosis, a mutualistic relationship scleractinian corals developed with zooxanthellae; however, because zooxanthellae are not fossilized, it is difficult (and contentious) to ...

Characterizing photosymbiosis in modern planktonic foraminifera [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2019 Photosymbiosis has played a key role in the diversification of foraminifera and their carbonate production throughout geologic history. However, identification of photosymbiosis in extinct taxa remains challenging, and even among the extant species the ...

Algal remodeling in a ubiquitous planktonic photosymbiosis [PDF]
Current Biology, 2019 Photosymbiosis between single-celled hosts and microalgae is common in oceanic plankton, especially in oligotrophic surface waters. However, the functioning of this ecologically important cell-cell interaction and the subcellular mechanisms allowing the ...

Photosymbiosis and the expansion of shallow-water corals [PDF]
Science Advances, 2016 Roughly 240 million years ago (Ma), scleractinian corals rapidly expanded and diversified across shallow marine environments. The main driver behind this evolution is uncertain, but the ecological success of modern reefbuilding corals is attributed to ...
