The effect of temperature and nitrogen deprivation on cell morphology and physiology of Symbiodinium
Oceanologia, 2016 Nutrients and temperature are the major elements in maintaining stable endosymbiotic relationships. The mechanisms and response of cultured Symbiodinium cells in the absence of nitrogen, and at various temperatures are still unclear.

One-year survey of a single Micronesian reef reveals extraordinarily rich diversity of Symbiodinium types in soritid foraminifera [PDF]
, 2018 Recent molecular studies of symbiotic dinoflagellates (genus Symbiodinium) from a wide array of invertebrate hosts have revealed exceptional fine-scale symbiont diversity whose distribution among hosts, regions and environments exhibits significant ...

Transmission of a heterologous clade C Symbiodinium in a model anemone infection system via asexual reproduction [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Anemones of genus Exaiptasia are used as model organisms for the study of cnidarian-dinoflagellate (genus Symbiodinium) endosymbiosis. However, while most reef-building corals harbor Symbiodinium of clade C, Exaiptasia spp. anemones mainly harbor clade B

DNA Extraction from Symbiodinium Cultures v1 [PDF]
, 2018 Dinoflagellates are unicellular algae that can have photosynthetic or nonphotosynthetic lifestyles. Dinoflagellates in the genus Symbiodinium can enter endosymbiotic associations with corals, providing the metabolic basis for the highly productive and biologically diverse coral-reef ecosystems (Hoegh-Guldberg, 1999), as well as with other cnidarians ...

Dielectrophoretic–inertial microfluidics for Symbiodinium separation and enrichment
The Physics of FluidsIn the marine environment, the symbiotic relationship between Symbiodinium and corals plays a pivotal role in coral growth and development. Against the backdrop of widespread coral bleaching due to the global climate change, the facile and efficient ...

The role of floridoside in osmoadaptation of coral-associated algal endosymbionts to high-salinity conditions. [PDF]
, 2017 The endosymbiosis between Symbiodinium dinoflagellates and stony corals provides the foundation of coral reef ecosystems. The survival of these ecosystems is under threat at a global scale, and better knowledge is needed to conceive strategies for ...
