Coral Skeletal Cores as Windows Into Past Symbiodiniaceae Community Dynamics. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
Stony corals rely on their association with symbiotic algae for their growth and health. However, corals can lose these symbionts in response to heat stress and bleach, but they can also recover from bleaching and associate with new, more tolerant symbionts.

Cellular plasticity facilitates phenotypic change in a dominant coral’s Symbiodiniaceae assemblage [PDF]

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Coral-associated dinoflagellates (Symbiodiniaceae) are photosynthetic endosymbionts that influence coral acclimation, as indicated by photo-endosymbiotic phenotypic variance across different environmental conditions.

Latitudinal Variation in the Molecular Diversity and Community Composition of Symbiodiniaceae in Coral From the South China Sea

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Coral reefs are continuing to decline worldwide due to anthropogenic climate change. The study of the molecular diversity and biogeographical patterns of Symbiodiniaceae, is essential to understand the adaptive potential and resilience of coral–algal ...

Seasonal Variation in In Hospite but Not Free-Living, Symbiodiniaceae Communities Around Hainan Island, China [PDF]

Microorganisms
Coral reefs are increasingly threatened by global climate change, and mass bleaching and mortality events caused by elevated seawater temperature have led to coral loss worldwide. Hainan Island hosts extensive coral reef ecosystems in China, yet seasonal

A Lectin AtTL-2 Obtained from Acropora aff. tenuis Induced Stimualation of Phagocytosis of Symbiodiniaceae [PDF]

Microorganisms
The coral Acropora aff. tenuis selectively acquired various zooxanthella (Symbiodiniaceae) strains, and one of the selective factors was lectins. The A. aff.

Symbiotic Symbiodiniaceae mediate coral-associated bacterial communities along a natural thermal gradient [PDF]

Environmental Microbiome
The coral-associated microbiome plays a vital role in the holobiont, enabling coral adaptation to diverse environments by modulating its composition and mediating interactions among its constituents.

Coral microbiome in estuary coral community of Pearl River Estuary: insights into variation in coral holobiont adaptability to low-salinity conditions [PDF]

BMC Microbiology
Background Low salinity is a crucial environmental stressor that affects estuarine coral ecosystems considerably. However, few studies have focused on the effects of low-salinity conditions on coral-associated microorganisms and the adaptability of coral

Specificity trumps flexibility—location-based stable associations between Symbiodiniaceae genera and Platygyra verweyi (Scleractinia; Merulinidae) [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
This study monitored symbiont communities bi-monthly in native coral cores used in a reciprocal transplantation of the coral Platygyra verweyi over two years (2014–2016) and samples of mother colonies from three locations with variable thermal regimes ...

Whole Genome Sequencing Reveals Genetic Differences Between Symbiodiniaceae Populations Among Reproductively and Geographically Isolated Acropora Colonies in Western Australia [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Significant genetic differentiation between Symbiodiniaceae populations in coral hosts can be induced by a range of factors including geography, latitude, depth, temperature and light utilisation.

Coral-Associated Bacteria Provide Alternative Nitrogen Source for Symbiodiniaceae Growth in Oligotrophic Environment [PDF]

Microorganisms
Coral reefs thrive in nutrients-poor waters, and their survival strategy in such oligotrophic marine environments remains largely unexplored. Current coral research has focused on the interplay between the animal hosts, symbiotic Symbiodiniaceae, and ...
