Symbiosis

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    High levels of floridoside at high salinity link osmoadaptation with bleaching susceptibility in the cnidarian-algal endosymbiosis
    Hagen M. Gegner, Nils Rädecker, Michael Ochsenkühn, Marcelle M. Barreto, Maren Ziegler, Jessica Reichert, Patrick Schubert, Thomas Wilke, Christian R. Voolstra
    Biology Open 2019 8: bio045591 doi: 10.1242/bio.045591 Published 16 December 2019

    Summary: Using the coral model Aiptasia, we show increased thermotolerance at high salinities, concomitant with a reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) release by algal endosymbionts. This suggests a mechanistic link between osmoadaptation and thermotolerance, mediated by ROS-scavenging osmolytes.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Transcriptomic analyses highlight the likely metabolic consequences of colonization of a cnidarian host by native or non-native Symbiodinium species
    Mei-Fang Lin, Shunichi Takahashi, Sylvain Forêt, Simon K. Davy, David J. Miller
    Biology Open 2019 8: bio038281 doi: 10.1242/bio.038281 Published 27 March 2019

    Summary: Colonization by the homologous symbiont, Symbiodinium goreaui, resulted in greater glycogen synthesis and ammonium assimilation capacity in the host than when it was colonized by a heterologous symbiont (S. trenchii).

  • MEETING REVIEW
    Symbiosis in the microbial world: from ecology to genome evolution
    Jean-Baptiste Raina, Laura Eme, F. Joseph Pollock, Anja Spang, John M. Archibald, Tom A. Williams
    Biology Open 2018 7: bio032524 doi: 10.1242/bio.032524 Published 22 February 2018

    Summary: At a recent Company of Biologists workshop, evolutionary biologists discussed the major outstanding questions in symbiosis research.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    High salinity conveys thermotolerance in the coral model Aiptasia
    Hagen M. Gegner, Maren Ziegler, Nils Rädecker, Carol Buitrago-López, Manuel Aranda, Christian R. Voolstra
    Biology Open 2017 6: 1943-1948; doi: 10.1242/bio.028878

    Summary: High salinity can be a factor contributing to increased cnidarian thermal tolerance, as indicated by reduced algal endosymbiont loss and reduced photosynthetic impairment in the sea anemone Aiptasia. This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper as part of the supplementary information.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Dietary saccharides and sweet tastants have differential effects on colonization of Drosophila oocytes by Wolbachia endosymbionts
    Moises Camacho, Mailin Oliva, Laura R. Serbus
    Biology Open 2017 6: 1074-1083; doi: 10.1242/bio.023895

    Summary: The density of Wolbachia infection in Drosophila oocytes is significantly increased by dietary sugars, but not sugar alcohols or artificial sweeteners.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Epizoic acoelomorph flatworms impair zooplankton feeding by the scleractinian coral Galaxea fascicularis
    Tim Wijgerde, Pauke Schots, Eline Van Onselen, Max Janse, Eric Karruppannan, Johan A. J. Verreth, Ronald Osinga
    Biology Open 2013 2: 10-17; doi: 10.1242/bio.20122741
