Photophysiological response of Symbiodiniaceae single cells to temperature stress
The ISME Journal, 2022 Abstract Photosynthetic dinoflagellates in the family Symbiodiniaceae engage in symbiosis with scleractinian corals. As coral ‘bleaching’ is partly governed by the thermal sensitivity of different Symbiodiniaceae lineages, numerous studies have investigated their temperature sensitivity.

mSystems, 2023 Corals rely on a wide range of microorganisms for their functioning, including intracellular dinoflagellates (Symbiodiniaceae) and bacteria. Marine heatwaves trigger the loss of Symbiodiniaceae from coral tissues–coral bleaching–often leading to death ...

Multiple waves of viral invasions in Symbiodiniaceae algal genomes
Virus Evolution, 2022 Abstract Dinoflagellates from the family Symbiodiniaceae are phototrophic marine protists that engage in symbiosis with diverse hosts. Their large and distinct genomes are characterized by pervasive gene duplication and large-scale retroposition events. However, little is known about the role and scale of horizontal gene transfer (HGT)

Cellular plasticity facilitates phenotypic change in a dominant coral’s Symbiodiniaceae assemblage
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.

Comparative transcriptomic analyses of Chromera and Symbiodiniaceae
Environmental Microbiology Reports, 2020 Summary Reef‐building corals live in a mutualistic relationship with photosynthetic algae (family Symbiodiniaceae) that usually provide most of the energy required by the coral host. This relationship is sensitive to temperature stress; as little as a 1°C increase often leads to the collapse of the association ...

Genome Size, rDNA Copy, and qPCR Assays for Symbiodiniaceae [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Symbiodiniaceae community structure in corals is crucial for understanding the plasticity of different holobionts under environmental stress. While this relies on molecular analyses, accuracy of molecular quantification, as influenced by DNA extraction efficiency and rDNA copy number variations in particular, has rarely been systematically investigated.

Exploring the potential function of dimethylsulfoniopropionate and its by-product acrylate within the coral holobiont [PDF]
, 2023 Geoffrey Yau studied the potential function of dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) and acrylate in coral recruits. He found hosting Symbiodiniaceae enhanced Acropora growth and DMSP level. This study provided fundamental understanding of DMSP production in
