Environmental Influences On The Physiology Of Cnidarians And Their Symbionts [PDF]
Corals and other cnidarians maintain complex symbioses that include photosynthetic endosymbiotic dinoflagellates (Symbiodiniaceae), protozoans, fungi, bacteria, archaea, and other metazoans, collectively known as the holobiont.

Symbiont Community Diversity is More Variable in Corals That Respond Poorly to Stress [PDF]
Coral reefs are declining globally as climate change and local water quality press environmental conditions beyond the physiological tolerances of holobionts—the collective of the host and its microbial symbionts.

Bleaching forces coral’s heterotrophy on diazotrophs and Synechococcus [PDF]
© 2019, International Society for Microbial Ecology. Coral reefs are threatened by global warming, which disrupts the symbiosis between corals and their photosynthetic symbionts (Symbiodiniaceae), leading to mass coral bleaching.

Preparation of Symbiodiniaceae for cryopreservation and laser-warming v1
This protocol is used to prepare Symbiodiniaceae samples for cryopreservation, specifically for vitrification and laser-warming. It uses Symbiodiniaceae freshly extracted from scleractinian corals as described here. The materials listed here are for 45 blades of encapsulated Symbiodiniaceae.

Diel transcriptional responses of coral-Symbiodiniaceae holobiont to elevated temperature
AbstractCoral exhibits diel rhythms in behavior and gene transcription. However, the influence of elevated temperature, a key factor causing coral bleaching, on these rhythms remains poorly understood. To address this, we examined physiological, metabolic, and gene transcription oscillations in the Acropora tenuis-Cladocopium sp.

Coral reefs are in global decline mainly due to increasing sea surface temperatures triggering coral bleaching. Recently, high salinity has been linked to increased thermotolerance and decreased bleaching in the sea anemone coral model Aiptasia. However,

Functional analyses of bacterial genomes found in Symbiodiniaceae genome assemblies
Abstract Bacterial–algal interactions strongly influence marine ecosystems. Bacterial communities in cultured dinoflagellates of the family Symbiodiniaceae have been characterized by metagenomics. However, little is known about whole‐genome analysis of marine bacteria associated with these dinoflagellates.

Symbiodiniaceae and Ruegeria sp. Co-Cultivation to Enhance Nutrient Exchanges in Coral Holobiont
The symbiotic relationship between corals and their associated microorganisms is crucial for the health of coral reef eco-environmental systems. Recently, there has been a growing interest in unraveling how the manipulation of symbiont nutrient cycling ...

Mechanisms for the Persistence of the Coral Holobiont in the Warming Oceans of the Anthropocene [PDF]
Coral Reefs are rapidly deteriorating in response to an onslaught of human-mediated stressors. Just one stressor alone, climate change, may extirpate coral reef ecosystems within a human lifetime, threatening societal and ecological catastrophe.

Global Free‐Living Symbiodiniaceae Biodiversity Mirrors Local Environments
ABSTRACT Aim For free‐living Symbiodiniaceae, we aim to synthesise current knowledge, identify gaps in our understanding of biogeography and conduct the first quantitative genetic analysis of biogeography at a global scale. Location
