Symbiodinium—Invertebrate Symbioses and the Role of Metabolomics
Marine Drugs, 2010 Symbioses play an important role within the marine environment. Among the most well known of these symbioses is that between coral and the photosynthetic dinoflagellate, Symbiodinium spp. Understanding the metabolic relationships between the host and the

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Giant clams are important ecosystem engineers of coral reefs because they harbor large quantities of phototrophic Symbiodiniaceae dinoflagellates of mainly genera Symbiodinium, Cladocopium, and Durusdinium.

, 2015 The genomic framework that enables corals to adjust to unfavourable conditions is crucial for coral reef survival in a rapidly changing climate. We have explored the striking intraspecific variability in the expression of coral pigments from the green ...

Mitochondrial electron transport activity and metabolism of experimentally bleached hermatypic corals [PDF]
, 2016 Bleached corals (Porites cylindrica and Galaxea fascicularis) were obtained through extended incubation (over 45 days) under light depletion and privation: low light and dark conditions, and heat stress (32 °C).

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.The dominant coral species in Dapeng Peninsula changed from branching types to clumping types. Fishing and tourism had significant negative impacts on coral reef development. Water quality and substrate types determined the distribution and structure of coral communities.

A hypothesis linking sub-optimal seawater pCO2 conditions for cnidarian-Symbiodinium symbioses with the exceedence of the interglacial threshold (>260 ppmv) [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2012 Most scleractinian corals and many other cnidarians host intracellular photosynthetic dinoflagellate symbionts ("zooxanthellae"). The zooxanthellae contribute to host metabolism and skeletogenesis to such an extent that this symbiosis is well recognised ...

Heterotrophic feeding by gorgonian corals with symbiotic zooxanthella [PDF]
Limnology and Oceanography, 1998 Gorgonians are one of the most characteristic groups in Caribbean coral reef communities. In this study, we measured in situ rates of grazing on pico‐, nano‐, and microplankton, zooxanthellae release, and respiration for the ubiquitous symbiotic gorgonian coral Plexaura flexuosa. Zooplankton capture by P.

PLoS ONE, 2014 Massive scleractinian corals of the genus Porites are important reef builders in the Indo-Pacific, and they are more resistant to thermal stress than other stony corals, such as the genus Acropora.

Engineering Strategies to Decode and Enhance the Genomes of Coral Symbionts
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Elevated sea surface temperatures from a severe and prolonged El Niño event (2014–2016) fueled by climate change have resulted in mass coral bleaching (loss of dinoflagellate photosymbionts, Symbiodinium spp., from coral tissues) and subsequent coral ...
