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

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

Endozoicomonas are prevalent, abundant bacterial associates of marine animals, including
corals. Their role in holobiont health and functioning, however, remains poorly understood …

Reef-building corals are keystone species that are threatened by anthropogenic stresses
including climate change. To investigate corals' responses to stress and other aspects of …

Symbiotic interactions occur in all domains of life, providing organisms with resources to
adapt to new habitats. A prime example is the endosymbiosis between corals and …

We investigated physiological responses including calcification, photosynthesis and
alterations to polar metabolites, in the scleractinian coral Stylophora pistillata exposed to …

Anthropogenic stressors continue to escalate worldwide, driving unprecedented declines in
reef environmental conditions and coral health. One approach to better understand how …

Exposure of marine life to low oxygen is accelerating worldwide via climate change and
localized pollution. Mass coral bleaching and mortality have recently occurred where reefs …

Reef corals are mixotrophic organisms relying on symbiont-derived photoautotrophy and
water column heterotrophy. Coral endosymbionts (Family: Symbiodiniaceae), while typically …

Photosynthesis shapes the symbiotic relationships between cnidarians and
Symbiodiniaceae algae—with many cnidarian hosts requiring symbiont photosynthate for …
