Fast growth may impair regeneration capacity in the branching coral Acropora muricata. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Regeneration of artificially induced lesions was monitored in nubbins of the branching coral Acropora muricata at two reef-flat sites representing contrasting environments at Réunion Island (21°07'S, 55°32'E). Growth of these injured nubbins was examined

Light-Dependent Phenomena and Related Molecular Mechanisms in Giant Clam-Dinoflagellate Associations: A Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Giant clams can grow to large sizes despite living in oligotrophic waters of the tropical Indo-Pacific as they maintain a mutualistic relationship with symbiotic dinoflagellates (zooxanthellae) and receive photosynthate from them.

Toxicity of zinc oxide to scleractinian corals and zooxanthellae: a brief review [PDF]

open access: yesQuímica Nova, 2023
In recent years, the safety of sunscreens to coral reefs and the role these products would play in the process of coral bleaching has been a concern. However, the discussion centers almost exclusively on the organic components used as UV filters, with ...

Dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) as an Indicator of Bleaching Tolerance in Scleractinian Corals

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2015
Thermal tolerance tests on Acropora millepora, a common Indo-Pacific hard coral, have shown that adult corals can acquire increased thermal tolerance by shuffling existing type C to type D Symbiodinium zooxanthellae when subjected to increased seawater ...

Zooxanthellae Counts of Bleached Coral [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Coral reefs are an essential part of the world. They provide the world with over half of the produced oxygen and take up over one-third of the carbon dioxide produced by mankind.

Study on expelled but viable zooxanthellae from giant clams, with an emphasis on their potential as subsequent symbiont sources.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Unlike most bivalve shellfishes, giant clams (tridacnines) harbor symbiotic microalgae (zooxanthellae) in their fleshy bodies. Zooxanthellae are not maternally inherited by tridacnine offspring, hence, the larvae must acquire zooxanthellae from external ...

ESTIMATING CONTRIBUTION OF ZOOXANTHELLAE TO ANIMAL RESPIRATION (CZAR) AND TO ANIMAL GROWTH (CZAG) OF GIANT CLAM Tridacna maxima [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Zooxanthellae are symbiotic dinoflagellate algae which live in association with marine invertebrates including giant clams. These algae are capable of translocating part of their photosynthetic products to the host.

PHOTOSYNTHETHIC PARAMETER ASSESSMENT OF CORAL ZOOXANTHELLAE OF Acropora aspera AND Favites abdita USING MAXI I-PAM SYSTEM IN HERON ISLAND, GREAT BARRIER REEF, AUSTRALIA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Zooxanthellae, which reside inside the coral host, have been an essential component in coral ecosystem studies. While residing inside their host, zooxanthellae photosynthesize provide energy and nutrients to coral. Objectives are to observe the impact of

Individual and Interactive Effects of Ocean Warming and Acidification on Adult Favites colemani

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Tropical coral reefs are threatened by local-scale stressors that are exacerbated by global ocean warming and acidification from the post-industrial increase of atmospheric CO2 levels.
