Comparing the effects of symbiotic algae (Symbiodinium) clades C1 and D on early growth stages of Acropora tenuis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Reef-building corals switch endosymbiotic algae of the genus Symbiodinium during their early growth stages and during bleaching events. Clade C Symbiodinium algae are dominant in corals, although other clades - including A and D - have also been commonly

Ecophysiology of two mesophotic octocorals intended for restoration: Effects of light and temperature

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 11, Page 3309-3321, November 2025.
Abstract Light and temperature are driving forces that shape the evolution and physiology of mesophotic organisms. On the Mississippi‐Alabama continental shelf, octocorals dominate the mesophotic seascape and provide habitat for many fish and invertebrate species.

Induction of Glycerol Synthesis and Release in Cultured Symbiodinium

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Symbiotic dinoflagellates transfer a substantial amount of their photosynthetic products to their animal hosts. This amount has been estimated to represent up to 90% of the photosynthetically fixed carbon and can satisfy in some instances the full respiratory requirements of the host.

Marine Heatwaves Transform Coral Symbioses With Enduring Effects

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 11, November 2025.
Marine heatwaves are disrupting coral–algal symbioses, yet their long‐term effects remain poorly understood. Using a decade‐long survey (2013–2023), we document a lasting transformation of symbiont assemblages, evidence of a local symbiont extinction, and indications that local human disturbance may impede symbiont recovery following a major marine ...

Experimental Evolution in Coral Photosymbionts as a Tool to Increase Thermal Tolerance

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Coral reefs are under major threat from ocean warming. When temperatures become too high corals bleach, expelling their symbiotic, photosynthetic microalgae (Symbiodinium), which they depend on for much of their nutritional requirements.

Condition-specific RNA editing in the coral symbiont Symbiodinium microadriaticum

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2017
RNA editing is a rare post-transcriptional event that provides cells with an additional level of gene expression regulation. It has been implicated in various processes including adaptation, viral defence and RNA interference; however, its potential role

Coral Skeletal Cores as Windows Into Past Symbiodiniaceae Community Dynamics

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 11, November 2025.
Stony corals rely on their association with symbiotic algae for their growth and health. However, corals can lose these symbionts in response to heat stress and bleach, but they can also recover from bleaching and associate with new, more tolerant symbionts.

Species‐Specific Offsets in Manganese Incorporation in Hyaline Foraminiferal Calcite Across a Gradient of Seawater [Mn]

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Mn/Ca of foraminiferal calcite has been proposed as a tool to reconstruct past oxygen conditions, but the impact of the concentration of Mn ([Mn]) in seawater on partitioning of Mn in foraminiferal calcite remains unclear. Here, we explore Mn incorporation of different species of foraminifera across a gradient of seawater [Mn] by culturing ...

Infection Dynamics Vary between Symbiodinium Types and Cell Surface Treatments during Establishment of Endosymbiosis with Coral Larvae

open access: yesDiversity, 2011
Symbioses between microbes and higher organisms underpin high diversity in many ecosystems, including coral reefs, however mechanisms underlying the early establishment of symbioses remain unclear.
