Worldwide biogeography of Symbiodinium in tropical octocorals [PDF]

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 2008
Although octocorals are important components of coral reefs, most research on the genetic diversity of symbiotic zooxanthellae (Symbiodinium spp.) has focused on scleractinian (stony) corals. For both groups, most geographic comparisons have occurred within the same ocean or only included a few geographic sites.

Seasonal variation in the photo-physiology of homogeneous and heterogeneous Symbiodinium consortia in two scleractinian corals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Seasonal variation in the composition of the algal endosymbiont community and photophysiology was determined in the corals Pocillopora damicornis, which show high local fidelity to one symbiont type (Symbiodinium C1), and Acropora valida, with a mixed ...

Identifying and characterizing alternative molecular markers for the symbiotic and free-living dinoflagellate genus Symbiodinium. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Dinoflagellates in the genus Symbiodinium are best known as endosymbionts of corals and other invertebrate as well as protist hosts, but also exist free-living in coastal environments. Despite their importance in marine ecosystems, less than 10 loci have

Using Aiptasia as a Model to Study Metabolic Interactions in Cnidarian-Symbiodinium Symbioses

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
The symbiosis between cnidarian hosts and microalgae of the genus Symbiodinium provides the foundation of coral reefs in oligotrophic waters. Understanding the nutrient-exchange between these partners is key to identifying the fundamental mechanisms ...

Comparative analysis of canonical and noncanonical rhodopsins in Amphidinium carterae and Karlodinium veneficum

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rhodopsins are ancient and versatile light‐sensitive proteins, widely distributed across microbial life. In dinoflagellates, however, their diversity and function remain poorly understood, owing to the lineage's extreme genomic divergence. Here, we surveyed the rhodopsin complements of two dinoflagellates, Amphidinium carterae and Karlodinium ...

Zooxanthellae (Symbiodinium, Dinophyceae) symbioses on coral reefs [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Australia, 2009
The large three-dimensional structures that make up coral reefs are primarily the product of calcium carbonate deposition by zooxanthellate scleractinian corals, i.e., stony corals living in symbiosis with dinoflagellate algae of the genus Symbiodinium (a.k.a. zooxanthellae).

Mesophotic coral depth acclimatization is a function of host-specific symbiont physiology

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2015
Mesophotic coral ecosystems receive increasing attention owing to their potential as deep coral refuges in times of global environmental change. Here, the mechanisms of coral holobiont photoacclimatization over a 60 m depth gradient in the central Red ...

Database of low‐temperature absorption and fluorescence spectra of native photosynthetic tetrapyrrole macrocycles

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
The absorption and fluorescence spectra at 77 K (frozen glass) and room temperature (fluid solution) are provided for 12 native photosynthetic macrocycles encompassing one porphyrin, eight chlorins, and 3 bacteriochlorins. Abstract Low‐temperature (77 K) absorption and fluorescence spectra of 12 naturally occurring photosynthetic tetrapyrrole ...

Validation and description of Symbiodinium microadriaticum, the type species of Symbiodinium (Dinophyta)

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, 2017
It has been 55 years since Hugo Freudenthal described Symbiodinium microadriaticum (Dinophyceae), the type species of this large and important dinoflagellate genus found commonly in mutualistic symbiosis with cnidarians, other invertebrates, and certain protists. However, no type specimen was designated by Freudenthal, thus S.
