📢 New paper alert!

How do corals fuel early development? We tracked physiological and -omic 🧬 changes across #coral 🪸 development. We found that symbiotic interactions are contribute to nutritional demands and shape metabolic response in early life stages.

Symbiodiniaceae algal symbionts of Pocillopora damicornis larvae provide more carbon to their coral host under elevated levels of acidification and temperature
Symbiodiniaceae algal symbionts of Pocillopora damicornis larvae provide more carbon to their coral host under elevated levels of acidification and temperature - Communications Biology
Acidification and warming enhance the productivity and nutrient assimilation of Pocillopora damicornis coral larvae, without destabilizing its symbiosis with intracellular algae.

The results of a great collaboration finally out. Symbiotic carbon recycling in coral larvae is enhanced by elevated pCO2 and moderate increases in temperature. 🪸🧫 #Symbiosky

Our research examining the metabolic response of #coral #larvae to thermal stress is out now in PLOS Biology!

We found that symbiotic coral larvae reduce their metabolism and increase nitrogen sequestration to resist #bleaching under high temperatures.

Coral larvae increase nitrogen assimilation to stabilize algal symbiosis and combat bleaching under increased temperature
Rising sea surface temperatures threaten coral-algal symbiosis, impacting reef ecosystems. This study shows that coral larvae alter nutrient metabolism by increasing nitrogen assimilation to maintain ...
