Coral symbiotic algae calcify ex hospite in partnership with bacteria.
Dinoflagellates of the genus Symbiodinium are commonly recognized as invertebrate endosymbionts that are of central importance for the functioning of coral reef ecosystems. However, the endosymbiotic phase within Symbiodinium life history is inherently tied to a more cryptic free-living (ex hospite) phase that remains largely unexplored. Here we show that free-living Symbiodinium spp. in cultur...
متن کاملCircadian clocks in symbiotic corals: the duet between Symbiodinium algae and their coral host.
To date, the association and synchronization between two organismal circadian clocks ticking in parallel as part of a meta-organism (termed a symbiotic association), have rarely been investigated. Reef-building corals exhibit complex rhythmic responses to diurnal, lunar, and annual changes. Understanding circadian, circatidal, and annual regulation in reef-building corals is complicated by the ...
متن کاملInteractions between Corals and their Symbiotic Algae
Interactions between Corals and their Symbiotic Algae Gisèle Muller-Parker and Christopher F. D'Elia The mutualistic relationship between corals and their algal endosymbionts is a key factor in the evolutionary success of hermatypic (reef building) corals. Corals that harbor endosymbiotic algae exhibit faster rates of calcification, photoautotrophy and many other attributes that are believed to...
متن کاملA green Paramecium strain with abnormal growth of symbiotic algae.
Some hundred cells of Chlorella-like green algae are naturally enclosed within the cytoplasm of a single cell of green paramecia (Paramecium bursaria). Therefore, P. bursaria serves as an experimental model for studying the nature of endo-symbiosis made up through chemical communication between the symbiotic partners. For studying the mechanism of symbiotic regulations, the materials showing su...
متن کاملCoral Bleaching: Photosynthetic Impacts on Symbiotic Dinoflagellates
xxxviiiABSTRACT Global climate change is leading to the rise of ocean temperatures and is triggering masscoral bleaching events on reefs around the world. This involves the expulsion of thesymbiotic dinoflagellate algae, known as zooxanthellae, from the coral host. Coralbleaching is believed to occur as a result of damage to the photosynthetic apparatus ofthese symbionts...
