Climate change is increasing the average surface temperatures of tropical waters, creating unfavorable conditions for corals. Some species of coral can physiologically acclimate to elevated temperatures, but the degree to which genetic variation underlies differences in this ability is currently unknown.

Dynamic symbioses with functionally diverse dinoflagellate algae in the genus Symbiodinium may allow some reef corals to alter their phenotypes through ‘symbiont shuffling’, or changes in symbiont community composition. In particular, corals may become more bleaching resistant by increasing the relative abundance of thermally tolerant Symbiodinium in ...

Symbiont shuffling during thermal bleaching and recovery in the sea anemone Entacmaea quadricolor
Marine Biology, 2014The sea anemone Entacmaea quadricolor simultaneously harbours multiple symbiont types from the genus Symbiodinium, while providing essential habitat for anemonefish. This anemone lives close to its upper thermal threshold and experiences bleaching under elevated temperature and light stress. Here, we determine whether E.

Coral Bleaching And Thermal Tolerance: A Review Of Oxidative Stress And Symbiont Shuffling
IOSR Journal of Humanities and Social ScienceCoral bleaching is a major consequence of rising ocean temperatures and occurs when thermal stress destabilizes the symbiosis between corals and their photosynthetic algae. Understanding the mechanisms that drive bleaching is essential for explaining differences in resilience across reef systems.

AbstractAlgal symbiont shuffling in favour of more thermotolerant species has been shown to enhance coral resistance to heat‐stress. Yet, the mechanistic underpinnings and long‐term implications of these changes are poorly understood. This work studied the modifications in coral DNA methylation, an epigenetic mechanism involved in coral acclimatization,

Abstract As sea surface temperatures increase, many coral species that used to harbour symbionts of the genus Cladocopium have become colonized with the thermally tolerant genus, Durusdinium .

Symbiont Shuffling: A Choreography of Coral Acclimatization and Resistance to Climate Change
Anthropogenic climate change is causing widespread destruction of coral reefs via coral bleaching where the symbiosis between coral and their associated algal symbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) breaks down. Corals can increase their stress resistance and survival by establishing symbiosis with stress-tolerant Symbiodiniaceae. This research examined how stress-openaire +1 more source
Coral reefs are threatened by climate change, which is causing unprecedented changes in ocean temperature, pH, and more. These stressors have caused widespread coral bleaching, or loss of algal symbionts, which can lead to coral death. Corals can increase their stress resistance and survival by establishing symbiosis with stress-tolerant symbionts ...
