The intracellular coral–dinoflagellate symbiosis is the engine that underpins the success of
coral reefs, one of the most diverse ecosystems on the planet. However, the breakdown of …

Coral reefs rely upon the highly optimized coral–Symbiodiniaceae symbiosis, making them
sensitive to environmental change and susceptible to anthropogenic stress. Coral bleaching …

Continued declines in coral reef health over the past three decades have been punctuated
by severe mass coral bleaching‐induced mortality events that have grown in intensity and …

Symbiotic associations with Symbiodiniaceae have evolved independently across a diverse
range of cnidarian taxa including reef-building corals, sea anemones, and jellyfish, yet the …

In cnidarian-Symbiodiniaceae symbioses, algal endosymbiont population control within the
host is needed to sustain a symbiotic relationship. However, the molecular mechanisms that …

Dinoflagellates in the family Symbiodiniaceae occupy multiple ecological niches on tropical,
subtropical, and temperate reefs, ranging from species that are exclusively free-living to …

Many corals harbour symbiotic dinoflagellate algae. The algae live inside coral cells in a
specialized membrane compartment known as the symbiosome, which shares the …

The global loss and degradation of coral reefs, as a result of intensified frequency and
severity of bleaching events, is a major concern. Evidence of heat stress affecting corals …

Identifying which factors lead to coral bleaching resistance is a priority given the global
decline of coral reefs with ocean warming. During the second year of back‐to‐back …

The intimate relationship between scleractinian corals and their associated microorganisms
is fundamental to healthy coral reef ecosystems. Coral‐associated microbes …
