Isolation and Cultivation of Zooxanthellae

Nature, 1957
A REMARKABLE characteristic of tropical coral reefs, and indeed to some extent of shallow marine waters everywhere, is the profusion of single-cell, yellow-green algae (the so-called symbiotic zooxanthellae) that live within a wide variety of radiolarians, cœlenterates, molluscs, bryozoans, worms, ascidians, etc.

Effects of light of altered spectral composition on coral zooxanthellae associations and on zooxanthellae in vitro

Marine Biology, 1984
Pocillopora damicornis (Linnaeus) and Montipora verrucosa (Lamarck) were collected from Hawaiian reefs. In two experiments (September 1979-January 1980: ca. 4 mo; August-October 1980; ca. 2 mo), these reef corals were grown under sunlight passed through filters producing light fields of similar quantum flux but different spectral composition.

Studies on a nudibranch that contains zooxanthellae. II. Contribution of zooxanthellae to animal respiration (CZAR) in Pteraeolidia ianthina with high and low densities of zooxanthellae

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1986
Abstract Daily budgets of photosynthetically fixed carbon were constructed for Pteraeolidia ianthina with high and low densities of zooxanthellae, for irradiances typical of latitude 34° S in winter, spring and summer. Whereas nudibranchs with high densities of zooxanthellae were potentially phototrophic with respect to carbon ...

Sulfur assimilation in corals with aposymbiotic and symbiotic zooxanthellae

Environmental Microbiology Reports, 2020
Summary Although sulfate ions are the main form of sulfur in the ocean, there is limited knowledge on their use by living organisms. Stable isotope labelling and NanoSIMS analysis were used in this study to clarify how sulfate, in seawater, is assimilated by corals and zooxanthellae at the cellular level ...

Mode of zooxanthella transmission does not affect zooxanthella diversity in acroporid corals

Marine Biology, 2003
Two distinct modes of algal endosymbiont acquisition exist in corals, a direct transmission from the parental colony to the eggs and a larval or post-larval uptake from the environment. The former, maternal-transmission mode is expected to be a more closed system, while the latter is believed to be an open system.

Productivity of Zooxanthellae and Biogeochemical Cycles

1992
Symbiotic dinoflagellates (zooxanthellae) are dominant primary producers in tropical reef communities along with benthic algae (macrophytes), unicellular and filamentous sand algae, turf algae, sea grasses, and phytoplankton (Larkum, 1983). Zooxanthellae are widely distributed and abundant in the cells of foraminiferans, radiolarians, sponges ...

Productivity of Zooxanthellae

1980
Zooxanthellae are photosynthetic unicellular marine algae endosymbiotic with marine invertebrates. The term is a vernacular derivation of the original genus Zooxantheila, coined by Brandt (1) to describe the dinoflagellate symbionts of the radiolarian Collozoum inerme Haeckel, but now used to describe almost any yellow-brown unicellular algal symbiont.

Photosynthesis of phytoplankton and zooxanthellae on a coral reef

Marine Biology, 1977
A carbon-14 assimilation method was used to determine action spectra and photosynthesis versus irradiance (P versus I) curves of natural populations of phytoplankton and zooxanthellae from a coral reef fringing Lizard Island in the Australian Barrier Reef. The action spectra were related to the phytoplankton species composition. The curves showed shade
