Multiple waves of viral invasions in Symbiodiniaceae algal genomes
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)

Climate Change Leads to a Reduction in Symbiotic Derived Cnidarian Biodiversity on Coral Reefs [PDF]
Symbiotic relationships enable partners to thrive and survive in habitats where they would either not be as successful, or potentially not exist, without the symbiosis.

Comparative transcriptomic analyses of Chromera and Symbiodiniaceae
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 ...

Exploring the potential function of dimethylsulfoniopropionate and its by-product acrylate within the coral holobiont [PDF]
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
