The evolutionary history of Symbiodinium and scleractinian hosts—symbiosis, diversity, and the effect of climate change

M Stat, D Carter, O Hoegh-Guldberg - Perspectives in Plant Ecology …, 2006 - Elsevier
Marine invertebrates representing at least five phyla are symbiotic with dinoflagellates from

Early ontogenetic expression of specificity in a cnidarian-algal symbiosis

MA Coffroth, SR Santos, TL Goulet - Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2001 - int-res.com
Most cnidarian-microalgae symbioses exhibit some degree of specificity in host-symbiont
pairing. Among taxa with aposymbiotic larvae, specificity must be established each …

Host and symbiont cell cycle coordination is mediated by symbiotic state, nutrition, and partner identity in a model cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis

TR Tivey, JE Parkinson, VM Weis - MBio, 2020 - Am Soc Microbiol
The cell cycle is a critical component of cellular proliferation, differentiation, and response to
stress, yet its role in the regulation of intracellular symbioses is not well understood. To …
