Abstract:: Many members of the Phylum Cnidaria are mutualistic with unicellular dinoflagellates belonging to the genus Symbiodinium. Corals are the most widely recognized example of these associations due to their key ecological importance in coral reef ecosystems where they serve as the structural and trophic foundation of these rich ecosystems. Coral...

Creator:: Hauck, Laura L.
Abstract:: Cnidarians, such as anemones and corals, engage in an intracellular symbiosis with photosynthetic dinoflagellates. Corals form both the trophic and structural foundation of reef ecosystems. Despite their environmental importance, little is known about the molecular basis of this symbiosis. In this dissertation we explored the cnidariandinoflagellate symbiosis from two perspectives:...

Creator:: Wood-Charlson, Elisha M.
Abstract:: Mutualistic associations between cnidarians, such as corals, and photosynthetic dinoflagellate algae provide the trophic and structural foundation of coral reef ecosystems. In many cases, this intracellular mutualism is highly specific and must be established anew for each generation of host corals. The ability to maintain partner specificity across generations implies...
