The delicate symbiosis between corals and their algal endosymbionts (zooxanthellae) is easily disrupted by thermal stress, leading to bleaching and eventual mortality. (whoi.edu)
This research will identify which species are most resilient to high temperature stress, and determine whether the presence of specific types of algal endosymbionts in the corals is predictive of the capacity of their coral hosts to survive temperature stress. (bco-dmo.org)
Phototrophic Cnidaria are mixotrophic organisms that can complement their heterotrophic diet with nutrients assimilated by their algal endosymbionts. (peercommunityin.org)

Wolbachia5
Wolbachia infections in the Cimicidae: museum specimens as an untapped resource for endosymbiont surveys. (lookformedical.com)

The production of microfilariae by female adult worms depends on their associated Wolbachia endosymbiont. (medscape.com)
Bacterial2
Proteins from the bacterial endosymbiont of aphids were also differentially expressed in biotype H. Guided by the proteome results, we tested whether biotype H had a fitness advantage compared to other S. graminum biotypes and found that biotype H had a higher reproductive fitness as compared to two other biotypes on a range of different wheat germplasms. (usda.gov)
Laboratory and field trials were used to test the effectiveness of thermal treatment regimens to reduce P. marinus loads and biofouling, while bacterial safety was also monitored. (sare.org)

Symbiosis2
Recent research has uncovered fundamental aspects of these microbial communities, including their relationships with underlying geology and hydrothermal geochemistry, interactions with animals via symbiosis and distribution both locally in various habitats within vent fields and globally across hydrothermal systems in diverse settings.

I want to assess when the symbiosis colonizes experimentally deployed wood, characterize their microenvironmental conditions under which the symbiosis thrives and want to understand how the symbiosis is maintained over annual cycles. (univie.ac.at)
Ciliates1

This research will fill gaps in understanding about lucinid chemosymbiotic systems and potential biodiversity losses, and will identify how gene expression is altered for lucinids and their endosymbionts in changing ecosystem conditions, particularly due to anthropogenic impact. (sdsmt.edu)
We used mice bitten by field-collected ticks (nymphs and adult ticks) in different experimental conditions to investigate, by 16S rRNA gene metabarcoding, the impact of blood feeding on both the mouse skin microbiome and the tick microbiome. (biomedcentral.com)
These results suggest that the conditions under which gene expression happens in droplets result in a different relationship between genetic control elements such as BCDs and protein production than exists in batch CFPS or in cells. (ajuronline.org)

Nutrients2
1. The exchange of energy and nutrients are integral components of ecological functions of benthic shallow‐water ecosystems and are directly dependent on in situ environmental conditions. (uni-konstanz.de)
Coral reefs live within a fairly narrow envelope of environmental conditions constrained by water temperatures, light, salinity, nutrients, bathymetry, and the aragonite saturation state of seawater. (deepdyve.com)
Symbiotic2
But, while symbiotic nutrient cycling effectively retains carbon in the holobiont over long time scales, our data suggest that heterotrophic feeding is a critical source of nitrogen required for holobiont growth under oligotrophic conditions. (peercommunityin.org)
Here we contrasted the thermal resilience (that is the ability to resist stress) of a model symbiotic cnidarian from the Red Sea (jellyfish of the genus Cassiopea ) under stable and diel oscillating temperature conditions that provide night-time reprieves from daily maximum temperatures. (frontiersin.org)
Eggs4
The eggs are then conditioned to optimise their hatching at a later date. (edu.au)
Once the felts have dried and the eggs are properly conditioned, they are fine to transport back to the PEARG lab for whatever purpose we have for them - breeding experiments, preserved genetic material, an influx of new alleles into our current lab stocks, etc. (edu.au)
In the field females lay their eggs in sand and are known to bury themselves up to the head to ensure that eggs are laid deep enough (Mike Kearney, personal communication). (edu.au)
The tub of sand allows caged females to lay their eggs at ground level, as they would in the field. (edu.au)
Lipids1
The present 3D-TEM results, together with transcriptomic data support the finding that upregulation of TAG synthesis and autophagy are potential key mediators of the hyperaccumulation of lipids under conditions of nutrient stress. (biomedcentral.com)

Temperature3
Food, water, temperature, and light conditions for the Anglesea population are identical to those of the adults housed in the "cup complex" (see part 1) except: (a) when feeding the nymphs, the mesh sides of the cage and the sand are sprayed with water, and (b) a small halogen light is placed directly over the cage for 8 hours a day to provide additional warmth. (edu.au)
Lower night-time temperatures, resulting in lower daily mean temperatures, allowed holobionts to withstand daily maximum temperatures close to their bleaching thresholds for two extra days than those under stable maximum temperature conditions. (frontiersin.org)
Lower night-time temperatures increased the bleaching threshold of the holobionts, whereby holobionts exposed to night-time thermal reprieves tolerated a more extreme daily mean temperature of 40.6°C and reached a daily thermal maxima 4°C higher than those under stable temperature conditions.
