Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 2, Page 533-555, April 2026.Abstract Cyanobacteria comprise over 6000 species and inhabit diverse environments, including marine invertebrates such as sponges and corals. High‐throughput sequencing has indicated an abundance of Cyanobacteria communities in these hosts, yet taxonomic resolution has remained low below the phylum level.

Moderate Thermal Stress Causes Active and Immediate Expulsion of Photosynthetically Damaged Zooxanthellae (Symbiodinium) from Corals. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The foundation of coral reef biology is the symbiosis between corals and zooxanthellae (dinoflagellate genus Symbiodinium). Recently, coral bleaching, which often results in mass mortality of corals and the collapse of coral reef ecosystems, has become ...

Building like a Coral—Parallelized, Multiscale Biofabrication
Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 17, 20 March 2026.Corals build stiff, strong, and inherently circular skeletal materials under resource‐ and energy‐limited conditions—offering blueprints for transformative materials. We synthesize the current understanding of coral biomineralization and reframe coral growth as a multiscale, parallelized biofabrication process.

Symbiodinium cp23S RFLP and sequence analysis v1 [PDF]
, 2018 This protocol describes how to perform PCR on extracted Symbiodinium DNA to amplify a fragment of the chloroplast 23S rRNA gene. It is based on the method describes in Pochon et al., 2006. The protocol then explains how to perform an RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism) analysis on the PCR products as well as eitherusing them directly for ...

A preliminary survey of zoantharian endosymbionts shows high genetic variation over small geographic scales on Okinawa-jima Island, Japan [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Symbiotic dinoflagellates (genus Symbiodinium) shape the responses of their host reef organisms to environmental variability and climate change. To date, the biogeography of Symbiodinium has been investigated primarily through phylogenetic analyses of ...

Persistent Legacy Effects of Marine Heatwaves on Coral Symbioses
Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.The algal symbionts hosted by Platygyra ryukyuensis corals on Kiritimati Island were distributed according to their exposure to local human disturbance before an extreme marine heatwave (1). The symbionts hosted by corals underwent a major shift as a result of this acute heatwave disturbance, with transient symbionts detected in corals at less turbid ...

Common reef-building coral in the Northern Red Sea resistant to elevated temperature and acidification [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 Coral reefs are currently experiencing substantial ecological impoverishment as a result of anthropogenic stressors, and the majority of reefs are facing immediate risk.

Marine Ecology, Volume 47, Issue 2, March/April 2026.ABSTRACT The endosymbiotic jellyfish Cassiopea andromeda represents a yet untapped marine species that could be targeted as a new source for bioproducts, including food and feed. Also, the potential use of contained valuable ingredients, such as carotenoids and other antioxidants, under controlled aquaculture conditions might be a particularly ...

Maternal effects and Symbiodinium community composition drive differential patterns in juvenile survival in the coral Acropora tenuis [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2016 Coral endosymbionts in the dinoflagellate genus Symbiodinium are known to impact host physiology and have led to the evolution of reef-building, but less is known about how symbiotic communities in early life-history stages and their interactions with ...
