Bacterial Symbionts of Corals and Symbiodinium

2011
Multipartite symbiosis in corals is an exciting area of research that is not well studied. Research to date indicates that bacterial associates of corals may protect the host by producing antibiotics and other beneficial compounds and nutrients, and are likely to play a role in the stability of the coral animal as a whole.

Global Networks of Symbiodinium-Bacteria Within the Coral Holobiont

Microbial Ecology, 2018
Scleractinian corals form the framework of coral reefs and host abundant and diverse microbial communities that are fundamental to their success. A very limited number of studies have examined the co-occurrence of multiple partners within the coral 'holobiont' and their pattern of specificity over different geographical scales.

Phylogeny of Symbiodinium populations in zoantharians of the northern Persian Gulf

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2016
Zoantharians of the Persian Gulf (PG) experience periods of anomalous high temperature, irradiance and desiccation. Their survival largely relies on the symbiotic relationship with single celled dinoflagellates of the genus Symbiodinium. However, the phylogeny of symbionts of zoantharians has not been investigated in the region.

Coral host transcriptomic states are correlated withSymbiodiniumgenotypes

Molecular Ecology, 2010
A mutualistic relationship between reef-building corals and endosymbiotic dinoflagellates (Symbiodinium spp.) forms the basis for the existence of coral reefs. Genotyping tools for Symbiodinium spp. have added a new level of complexity to studies concerning cnidarian growth, nutrient acquisition, and stress.

Symbiodinium kawagutii strain:CCMP2468 Genome sequencing

2014
The phototrophic dinoflagellates are one of the most important primary producers, of which the symbiotic genus Symbiodinium is essential to the growth of reef-building corals. Dinoflagellates are also most important contributors of the environmentally and economically devastating harmful algal blooms and biotoxins in the marine ecosystem.Here, we ...

Light-Harvesting Complexes in the Dinoflagellate Symbiodinium

2014
Symbiodinium, the most commonly found endosymbionts of corals, are key constituents of coral reef ecosystems. Their photosynthesis is essential for the maintenance of the algal-host relationship, but is susceptible to various factors such as increased temperature and/or irradiance.

Symbiodinium diversity on the Great Barrier Reef

2009
Many reef invertebrates live in an obligate symbiotic relationship with dinoflagellate protists (genus Symbiodinium), also referred to as ‘zooxanthellae’. The symbiotic dinoflagellates reside within the endodermal layers of their host and provide an important proportion of their daily energy requirement (Muscatine 1990). The range of hosts that harbour

Establishment of Genome Editing in Symbiodinium

Symbiodinium microadriaticum is a symbiotic algae that is crucial to coral reef ecosystems. It plays a vital role in coral health through its symbiosis with corals, supplying them with nutrients via photosynthesis. However, environmental stressors such as increasing sea temperatures and overexposure to sunlight have led to widespread coral bleaching ...
