Acute Heat Priming Dampens Gene Expression Response to Thermal Stress in a Widespread <i>Acropora</i> Coral. [PDF]
Ecol Evol(a) Experimental design. Corals from 10 genotypes were distributed across two experimental blocks, each containing nine flow‐through tanks. Fragments from five genotypes were placed in each tank. (b) Temperature profiles and sampling time points in the heat stress assay, demonstrating ramp up from control conditions (27ºC, MMM) to the preconditioning ...

Culturing Symbiodinium v1 [PDF]
, 2018 we generated five clonal, axenic strains of Symbiodinium. These strains were assigned to clades A (two strains), B, E, and F based on their chloroplast 23S rDNA sequences. Growth studies in liquid cultures showed that the clade B strain and one of the clade A strains were able to grow photoautotrophically (in light with no fixed carbon ...

Validation of the binary designation Symbiodinium thermophilum (Dinophyceae) [PDF]
Journal of Phycology, 2018 The binary designation Symbiodinium thermophilum was invalid due to the absence of an illustration as required by Article 44.2 of the ICN. Herein, it is validated. This species is the most common symbiont in reef corals in the southern Persian/Arabian Gulf, the world's hottest body of water sustaining reef coral growth.

Symbiodinium Photosynthesis in Caribbean Octocorals
PLoS ONE, 2014 Symbioses with the dinoflagellate Symbiodinium form the foundation of tropical coral reef communities. Symbiodinium photosynthesis fuels the growth of an array of marine invertebrates, including cnidarians such as scleractinian corals and octocorals (e.g., gorgonian and soft corals).

Assessing Transcriptional Responses to Light by the Dinoflagellate Symbiodinium [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2019 The control of transcription is poorly understood in dinoflagellates, a group of protists whose permanently condensed chromosomes are formed without histones. Furthermore, while transcriptomes contain a number of proteins annotated as transcription factors, the majority of these are cold shock domain proteins which are also known to bind RNA, meaning ...

Ultrastructure of the Endoplasmic Reticulum in Eukaryotic Microalgae. [PDF]
J Eukaryot MicrobiolABSTRACT The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a large and highly dynamic component of the eukaryotic endomembrane system. In eukaryotic microalgae, it plays six distinct roles: (1) It envelopes the chromatin to form the nucleus. (2) It forms cisternae in the cytoplasm, some of which scaffold the synthesis of proteins destined for incorporation into ...

Induction of Glycerol Synthesis and Release in Cultured Symbiodinium
PLoS 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.

Trace Metal Requirements and Interactions in Symbiodinium kawagutii [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Photosynthetic organisms need trace metals for various biological processes and different groups of microalgae have distinctive obligate necessities due to their respective biochemical requirements and ecological niches. We have previously shown that the dinoflagellate Symbiodinium kawagutii requires high concentrations of bioavailable Fe to achieve ...

Fluorescence from a single Symbiodinium cell
Methods and Applications in Fluorescence, 2018 The partnership between coral and its algal symbionts, Symbiodinium, is crucial to the global environment. Yet, the regulatory process within the photosynthetic machinery of Symbiodinium is still not clearly understood. Here, we studied the influence of light stress from focussed red and blue lasers on single Symbiodinium cells.

Population genetics of reef coral endosymbionts (Symbiodinium, Dinophyceae) [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2017 AbstractSymbiodinium is a diverse genus of unicellular dinoflagellate symbionts associating with various marine protists and invertebrates. Although the broadscale diversity and phylogenetics of the Symbiodinium complex is well established, there have been surprisingly few data on fine‐scale population structure and biogeography of these ...
