Coral 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...

متن کاملPhotosynthetic response to elevated temperature in the symbiotic dinoflagellate Symbiodinium microadriaticum in culture.
Elevated temperature (28-34 degrees C) has been hypothesized as the primary cause of the loss of algal endosymbionts in coral reef-associated invertebrates, a phenomenon observed on a world-wide scale over the last decade. In past studies of this "bleaching" phenomenon, there has been an underlying assumption that temperature adversely affects the animal hosts, the algae thereby being relegated...
متن کاملPhotoacclimation and the effect of the symbiotic environment on the photosynthetic response of symbiotic dinoflagellates in the tropical marine hydroid Myrionema amboinense.
Symbiotic dinoflagellates of the genus Symbiodinium and residing in the tropical hydroid Myrionema amboinense acclimate to low photon flux associated with low light 'shade' environments by increasing the amount of photosynthetic pigments per algal cell. The photosynthetic light intensity (PI) curves suggested that the low-light pigment response involved an increase in the number of photosynthet...
متن کاملOn the functional significance of molecular variation in Symbiodinium, the symbiotic algae of Cnidaria: photosynthetic response to irradiance
The photosynthetic response to irradiance (PI response) of dinoflagellate algae of the genus Symbiodinium was quantified immediately after isolation from symbiosis with 9 species of corals and allied taxa on Bermuda. Significant variation in PI parameters was identified among the algal isolates, but no consistent differences between representatives of different Symbiodinium phylotypes were obta...
