Species‐Specific Vulnerability of Northern Red Sea Mesophotic Corals to Accelerated Warming
Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.Mesophotic reefs are often considered climate refuges, yet experimental thermal‐stress reveals species‐dependent vulnerability. Skeletal optics, energy reserves, and light environment determine bleaching severity. A depth‐generalist coral resisted stress while the mesophotic specialist bleached severely.

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 ...

Sponges are celebrated heterotrophs but also key primary producers on changing coral reefs
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1561-1577, June 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Trophic interactions and nutrient cycling lay at the heart of ecosystem health and biodiversity. In recent years, our understanding of these drivers has been repeatedly challenged by rapid and unanticipated climatic effects, combined with an increasing awareness that ...

The Chloroplast Genome of a Symbiodinium sp. Clade C3 Isolate
Protist, 2014 Dinoflagellate algae of the genus Symbiodinium form important symbioses within corals and other benthic marine animals. Dinoflagellates possess an extremely reduced plastid genome relative to those examined in plants and other algae. In dinoflagellates the plastid genes are located on small plasmids, commonly referred to as 'minicircles'.

The Evolution of Giant Clam Science: From Foundational Studies to Emerging Frontiers
Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.This review synthesizes nearly two centuries of giant clam research, identifying dominant themes, knowledge gaps, and emerging opportunities. Ecology, physiology, aquaculture, genomics, and biomineralization dominate the field, whereas anatomy and biotechnology remain underexplored. Future progress requires stronger integration of genomics, physiology,

Prevalent endosymbiont zonation shapes the depth distributions of scleractinian coral species [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2015 Bathymetric distributions of photosynthetic marine invertebrate species are relatively well studied, however the importance of symbiont zonation (i.e. hosting of distinct algal endosymbiont communities over depth) in determining these depth distributions

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms of algicidal bacteria, highlighting critical behaviours like chemotaxis, quorum sensing and extracellular vesicle release. It details how these actions disrupt algal cellular integrity, photosynthesis and calcium homeostasis, providing a theoretical foundation for controlling harmful algal blooms ...

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 2, Page 360-376, April 2026.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 ...
