Host Specificity Among Closely Related Dinoflagellates: Using Autofluorescence to Enumerate Symbionts in Aiptasia

Creator:

Corey, Kevin R., Kirk, N. L., Meyer, E., Coffroth, M. A., and Weis, V. M.

Abstract:

Symbiotic relationships between cnidarians and dinoflagellates within the genus Symbiodinium are critically important for the success of coral reefs. These symbionts provide their hosts with photosynthetically-fixed carbon in exchange for nutrients and shelter. Symbiodinium is a phylogenetically diverse genus that is often typed by sequencing the ribosomal internal transcribed spacer...
