Low Symbiodiniaceae diversity in a turbid marginal reef environment [PDF]

open access: yesCoral Reefs, 2020
The coastal waters of Singapore support coral reefs that are biodiverse but characterized by high turbidity and sedimentation. Here, we used internal transcribed spacer two (ITS2) amplicon sequencing to investigate the Symbiodiniaceae communities associated with this marginal reef system, as turbid reefs may serve as potential refugia from future ...

Stony coral tissue loss disease induces transcriptional signatures of in situ degradation of dysfunctional Symbiodiniaceae

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Stony coral tissue loss disease (SCTLD), one of the most pervasive and virulent coral diseases on record, affects over 22 species of reef-building coral and is decimating reefs throughout the Caribbean. To understand how different coral species and their

Unique quantitative Symbiodiniaceae signature of coral colonies revealed through spatio-temporal survey in Moorea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
One of the mechanisms of rapid adaptation or acclimatization to environmental changes in corals is through the dynamics of the composition of their associated endosymbiotic Symbiodiniaceae community.

The Evolution of Giant Clam Science: From Foundational Studies to Emerging Frontiers

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
This review synthesizes nearly two centuries of giant clam research, identifying dominant themes, knowledge gaps, and emerging opportunities. Ecology, physiology, aquaculture, genomics, and biomineralization dominate the field, whereas anatomy and biotechnology remain underexplored. Future progress requires stronger integration of genomics, physiology,

Concentrations, sources, and biological consumption of acrylate and DMSP in the tropical Pacific and coral reef ecosystem in Mo’orea, French Polynesia

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Shallow-water coral reefs hold large quantities of acrylate and its precursor dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP), but production and removal processes for these compounds are poorly characterized.

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

open access: yesPeerJ, 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 ...

Biology, ecology and filogeny of zooxanthellae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Zooksantele su miksotrofni dinoflagelati koji žive u simbiozi s koraljima i drugim beskralježnjacima. Ovisno o njihovim karakteristikama, zooksantele se dijele u klade te ovisno o okolišnim uvjetima u kojima se nalaze, nastanjuju različite vrste i ...

Caribbean Reef-Building Coral-Symbiodiniaceae Network: Identifying Symbioses Critical for System Stability in a Changing Climate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Increasing global ocean temperatures and frequency of marine heatwaves pose dire consequences for coral reefs. High temperatures often lead to disruptions in coral symbiosis resulting in coral bleaching, increasing the mortality of corals.

Monitoring Coral Reef Metabolism Under Changing Oceans–Novel Insights From Seawater Stable Carbon Isotopes

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Mounting environmental stressors are driving Caribbean reefs from coral to sponge and macroalgae dominance, necessitating a need for more nuanced metrics of reef metabolism under trophic transitions. Drawing upon four seasonally replicated field campaigns to Curaçao, we reveal highly variable net ecosystem productivity (−243 ± 69 C m−2 day−1 ...
