Symbiodiniaceae photophysiology and stress resilience is enhanced by microbial associations [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Symbiodiniaceae form associations with extra- and intracellular bacterial symbionts, both in culture and in symbiosis with corals. Bacterial associates can regulate Symbiodiniaceae fitness in terms of growth, calcification and photophysiology.

Direct evidence of sex and a hypothesis about meiosis in Symbiodiniaceae [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Dinoflagellates in the family Symbiodiniaceae are obligate endosymbionts of diverse marine invertebrates, including corals, and impact the capacity of their hosts to respond to climate change-driven ocean warming. Understanding the conditions under which

Building consensus around the assessment and interpretation of Symbiodiniaceae diversity [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Within microeukaryotes, genetic variation and functional variation sometimes accumulate more quickly than morphological differences. To understand the evolutionary history and ecology of such lineages, it is key to examine diversity at multiple levels of

Coral endosymbiont growth is enhanced by metabolic interactions with bacteria [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2023 Bacteria are key contributors to microalgae resource acquisition, competitive performance, and functional diversity, but their potential metabolic interactions with coral microalgal endosymbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) have been largely overlooked.

Toxicity thresholds of nine herbicides to coral symbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Over 30 herbicides have been detected in catchments and waters of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) and their toxicity to key tropical species, including the coral endosymbiotic algae Symbiodiniaceae, is not generally considered in current water quality ...

Diversity and distribution of Symbiodiniaceae detected on coral reefs of Lombok, Indonesia using environmental DNA metabarcoding [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 Background Dinoflagellates of family Symbiodiniaceae are important to coral reef ecosystems because of their contribution to coral health and growth; however, only a few studies have investigated the function and distribution of Symbiodiniaceae in ...

Lipid Droplets in Endosymbiotic Symbiodiniaceae spp. Associated with Corals
PlantsSymbiodiniaceae species is a dinoflagellate that plays a crucial role in maintaining the symbiotic mutualism of reef-building corals in the ocean. Reef-building corals, as hosts, provide the nutrition and habitat to endosymbiotic Symbiodiniaceae species ...

Phylogenetic analysis of cell-cycle regulatory proteins within the Symbiodiniaceae [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 In oligotrophic waters, cnidarian hosts rely on symbiosis with their photosynthetic dinoflagellate partners (family Symbiodiniaceae) to obtain the nutrients they need to grow, reproduce and survive.
