Assessing the role of historical temperature regime and algal symbionts on the heat tolerance of coral juveniles
The rate of coral reef degradation from climate change is accelerating and, as a
consequence, a number of interventions to increase coral resilience and accelerate …

Adaptations by the coral Acropora tenuis confer resilience to future thermal stress
Elevated temperatures cause coral bleaching and reef degradation. However, coral may
have strategies to survive by reproducing more heat-tolerable larvae. We examine the direct …

Transcriptomic changes with increasing algal symbiont reveal the detailed process underlying establishment of coral-algal symbiosis
To clarify the establishment process of coral-algal symbiotic relationships, coral
transcriptome changes during increasing algal symbiont densities were examined in …

Symbiont identity influences patterns of symbiosis establishment, host growth, and asexual reproduction in a model cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis
The genus Symbiodinium is physiologically diverse and so may differentially influence
symbiosis establishment and function. To explore this, we inoculated aposymbiotic …

Shift of symbiont communities in Acropora tenuis juveniles under heat stress
Ocean warming is a major threat to coral reefs, leading to an increasing frequency and
amplitude of coral bleaching events, where the coral and its algal symbiont associations …

Plasticity of symbiont acquisition in new recruits of the massive coral Platygyra daedalea under ocean warming and acidification
Symbiosis establishment is a milestone in the life cycles of most broadcast-spawning corals;
however, it remains largely unknown how initial symbiont infection is affected by ocean …

Metatranscriptomic analysis of corals inoculated with tolerant and non-tolerant symbiont exposed to high temperature and light stress
Algal symbionts of corals can influence host stress resistance; for example, in the Pacific
Ocean, whereas Cladocopium (C-type) is generally dominant in corals, Durusdinium (D …

The seasonal investigation of Symbiodiniaceae in broadcast spawning, Acropora humilis and brooding, Pocillopora cf. damicornis corals
The density and diversity of Symbiodiniaceae associated with corals can be influenced by
seasonal changes. This study provided the first annual investigation of Symbiodiniaceae …

Ontogenetic shifts in Symbiodiniaceae assemblages within cultured Acropora humilis across hatchery rearing and post-transplantation phases
Coral reefs have been declining worldwide due to multiple threats. Various approaches for
coral restoration have been employed to increase coral populations. Sexual propagation is …
