Project description:A mutualistic relationship between reef-building corals and endosymbiotic algae (Symbiodinium spp.) forms the basis for the existence of coral reefs. Genotyping tools for Symbiodinium spp. have added a new level of complexity to studies concerning cnidarian growth, nutrient acquisition, and stress. For example, the response of the coral holobiont to thermal stress is connected to the host-Symbiodinium genotypic combination, as different partnerships can have different bleaching susceptibilities. If, and to what extent, differences in algal symbiont clade contents can exert effects on the coral host transcriptome is currently unknown. In this study, we monitored algal physiological parameters and profiled the coral host transcriptional responses in acclimated, thermally stressed, and recovered coral fragments using a custom cDNA gene expression microarray. Combining these analyses with results from algal and host genotyping revealed a striking symbiont effect on both the acclimated coral host transcriptome and the magnitude of the thermal stress response. This is the first study that links coral host transcriptomic patterns to the clade content of their algal symbiont community. Our data provide a critical step to elucidating the molecular basis of the apparent variability seen among different coral-algal partnerships. Sample Collection and Tank Experiment. On July 31 2007, six replicate fragments (9.5 ± 3.5cm2) were collected using hammer and chisel from the upper sun-exposed surface of five different, healthy-looking Montastraea faveolata colonies near Puerto Morelos, Quintana Roo, México (20o52â28.77âN and 86o51â04.53âW). The fragments were transported to the institute within 1 h and divided evenly between two 50 L aquaria (i.e., 3 fragments from each colony were placed into each tank) that received a constant flow of seawater (0.6 L/min). Each aquarium was fit with a water pump connected to a spray-bar to provide constant water movement and aeration. Both aquaria were placed in a common pond with flowing water to buffer diurnal temperature fluctuations, and both aquaria were acclimated to the same shaded ambient light condition. All coral fragments were mounted on plasticene and kept at a depth of 7 cm. From 10 to 19 August 2007, both aquaria received an average water temperature of 27.9 ± 0.6oC (as recorded by HOBO Light/Temperature Data Loggers, Onset Corp.). Beginning on 11 August, dark-adapted maximum quantum yields for charge separation (Fv/Fm) were measured at dusk for all coral fragments using a DIVING-Pulse Amplitude Modulated (PAM) fluorometer (Walz, Germany). Photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) was measured at noon and averaged 318 ± 129 µmol m-2 s-1. From 20 to 21 August 2007, all coral fragments were brought inside during the passage of Hurricane Dean. On 22 August, the experiment was reconstituted, and acclimation continued on 23 August and lasted until 1 September. During this time, both aquaria received a mean water temperature of 28.5 ± 0.8oC, and mean PAR of 371 ± 169 µmol m-2 s-1. On the night of 1 September, control time point samples from five different colonies were collected from each tank (Figure 1), before one 200-Watt aquarium heater was turned on in the treatment aquarium. A second heater was turned on 3 days later. During the thermal stress experiment, the control aquarium received mean water temperature of 28.8 ± 1.2oC; the heated aquarium, 31.5 ± 1.1oC. During the thermal stress experiment, tanks received mean PAR of 420 ± 152 µmol m-2 s-1. On 11 September, and 19 October, one sample each from five different colonies was collected from each tank for the bleaching and recovery time point, respectively. Microarray Gene Expression Analysis of Coral Host Gene Expression. For the biologically replicated time series experiment, a pool of RNA from all control tank fragments was used as a reference RNA sample, against which each sample from the treatment tank was competitively hybridized. All control and heat-stressed samples were competitively hybridized against the reference RNA. Dye swaps were not performed, as any dye bias present is equal in all comparisons to the reference. Note: Samples VALUEs used for statistical analysis of differential expression. GSE15253_shini_cbr_matrix2_norm.txt used for hierarchical clustering.

Project description:Given the overwhelming evidence that symbiont genotypes differentially affect host processes such as growth, bleaching susceptibility, and nutrient acquisition, we set out to measure gene expression differences in fragments of Montastraea faveolata harboring two different clades of Symbiodinium. On the reefs near Puerto Morelos, México, colonies of M. faveolata are known to shift algal symbiont clade with depth, often associating with clade A at the top, clade B in the middle, and clade C near the bottom of the colony. By measuring photosynthetic efficiency and gene expression in control and heat-stressed fragments containing either clade B, clade C, or a mix of both, we found that: 1) the algal response to thermal stress is due to both host and algal factors; 2) fragments of M. faveolata express different genes in response to sub-bleaching thermal stress depending on algal genotype; 3) the overall effect of heat stress on coral gene expression is less significant than the effect of housing different zooxanthellae types. Overall, we present convincing evidence that different Symbiodinium clades may be functionally distinct, which in turn, greatly influences host gene expression. Six fragments (9.5 ± 3.5cm2) from the top (2.7m), middle (3.7m), and bottom (5.2m) of one massive colony of Montastraea faveolata were collected with a hammer and chisel at âLa Bocanaâ reef near Puerto Morelos, Quintana Roo, Mexico on 31 July 2007. The fragments were divided evenly between two aquaria (50L) that received a constant flow of seawater (~0.64L/min). Each aquarium was fit with a water pump connected to a spray-bar to provide constant water movement and aeration. Both aquaria were placed in a common pond with flowing water to buffer diurnal temperature fluctuations, and both aquaria were exposed to shaded ambient light. All coral fragments were mounted on plasticene and kept at a depth of ~7cm. From 10 to 19 August 2007 (acclimation #1), both aquaria received an average water temperature of 27.9 ± 0.6oC (as recorded by HOBO Light/Temperature Data Loggers by Onset Corp.). Effective quantum yield (ÎF/Fmâ) measurements were taken at noon, and maximum quantum yield (Fv/Fm) measurements were taken at dusk for all 18 coral fragments using a DIVING-PAM (Walz) beginning on 11 August. Photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) was measured at noon and averaged 318 ± 129 umol/m2/sec. From 20 to 21 August 2007, all coral fragments were brought inside during the passage of Hurricane Dean. On 22 August, the experiment was reconstituted, and a second acclimation period began on 23 August and lasted until 1 September. During this time, both aquaria received water at an average temperature of 28.5 ± 0.8oC, and PAR at an average of 371 ± 169 umol/m2/sec. On the night of 1 September, one 200-Watt aquarium heater was turned on in the treatment aquarium, and a second heater was turned on 3 days later. During the thermal stress experiment, the control aquarium received an average water temperature of 28.8 ± 1.2oC; the heated aquarium, 31.5 ± 1.1oC. PAR present during the thermal stress experiment averaged 420 ± 152 uE. On the night of 7 September, all fragments were frozen in liquid nitrogen. Eighteen total microarray hybridizations were performed. A reference RNA sample was created by pooling RNA from all 18 prepâs. All control and heat-stressed samples were competitively hybridized against the reference RNA to the M. faveolata microarray (1,310 features).

Project description:Twelve coral colonies of Montipora capitata were collected from patch reefs located in Kāne’ohe Bay, O’ahu, Hawai’i. Colonies were brought to shore where they were immediately split into two equally sized pieces, which were acclimated before bleaching. Half of each colony went to an increased water temperature treatment (30°C, bleaching treatment) and the other stayed at ambient temperature (25°C, nonbleached treatment) for three weeks. For the bleaching treatment, experimental tank temperatures were increased 2°C per day ( 1°C every 12 hours) for four days to a final temperature of 30°C. Samples were collected before bleaching (T1) and 24 hours after bleached colonies were returned to ambient temperature (T2), through 3 months post-bleaching (T6).

Project description:The emergence of genomic tools for reef-building corals and symbiotic anemones comes at a time when alarming losses in coral cover are being observed worldwide. These tools hold great promise in elucidating novel and unforeseen cellular processes underlying the successful mutualism between corals and their algal endosymbionts (Symbiodinium spp.). Since thermal stress triggers a breakdown in the symbiosis (coral bleaching), measuring the transcriptomic response to thermal stress-induced bleaching offers an extraordinary view of the cellular processes specific to coral-algal symbioses. In the present study, we utilized a cDNA microarray containing 2,059 genes of the Caribbean Elkhorn coral Acropora palmata to identify genes differentially expressed upon thermal stress. Fragments from four separate colonies were exposed to elevated temperature (3ËC increase) for two days, and samples were frozen for microarray analysis after 24 and 48 hours. Fragments experienced a 60% reduction in algal cell density after two days. 204 genes were differentially expressed in samples collected one day after thermal stress; in samples collected after two days, 104 genes. Annotations of the differentially expressed genes indicate a conserved cellular stress response in A. palmata involving: 1) growth arrest; 2) chaperone activity; 3) nucleic acid stabilization and repair; and 4) the removal of damaged macromolecules. Other differentially expressed processes include sensory perception, metabolite transfer between host and symbiont, nitric oxide signaling, and modifications to the actin cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix. The results are also compared to those from a previous coral microarray study of thermal stress in Montastraea faveolata. The field experiment was performed at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Instituteâs Bocas del Toro field station in Panamá during September and October 2006. Four colonies of A. palmata were sampled from two separate reefs 21 km apart (two colonies from Isla Solarte â 9o19â56.78â N and 82o12â54.65â W, and two colonies from Cayos Zapatillas â 9o15â08.79â N and 82o02â24.63â W). Each colony was broken into six fragments using a hammer and chisel. For each colony, three fragments were placed in a control aquarium, and three fragments were placed in an experimental aquarium fitted with two 200-Watt aquarium heaters, such that each colony was represented by a pair of aquaria (total of three control and three heated aquaria, all 75-liter). The three control aquaria were placed in one large fiberglass pond with continuous water flow, and the three experimental aquaria were placed in another large pond. All aquaria were exposed to shaded ambient light, and each aquarium was a closed system (but contained a pump to generate continuous water flow). Fragments were kept at a depth of ~25cm. HOBO Pendant Temperature/Light Data Loggers (Onset Corp UA-002-64) recorded temperature and light data every three minutes. These data loggers are not designed to measure photosynthetically active radiation (PAR â 400-700nm), as only ~30% of the measured light is in the range of PAR. For this reason, relative light levels in the aquaria are reported (expressed as the percentage of the average 10am to 2pm light intensity measured on a reef ~4m deep in Bocas del Toro (9o22â68.4â N and 82o18â24.6â W) during September and October 2007). Light intensity differed slightly between the four aquaria fitted with HOBOs (control aquaria 1 â 43%; control aquaria 2 â 46%; heated aquaria 1 â 35%; and heated aquaria 2 â 34% of reef light). After an acclimation period of four days at the natural temperature of the seawater system (mean temperature = 30.29±0.07oC), a fragment from each control and experimental aquaria was sampled (t0C and t0H). After time zero sampling, the heaters in each of the experimental aquaria were turned on. The temperatures of the experimental aquaria increased to ca. 32oC over three hours. The mean temperature of the control aquaria during the entire experiment was 29.74±0.03oC, and the mean temperature of the heated aquaria was 32.72±0.32oC. Control and experimental fragments were sampled again one day (1dC and 1dH) and two days (2dC and 2dH) after turning on the heaters. Heated fragments from one of the colonies (col3) showed extreme bleaching after one day of thermal stress. The remaining fragment of col3 was removed at this time to avoid fouling of the water due to death. Thus, there are four replicates for t0C, t0H, 1dC, and 1dH, and three replicates for 2dC and 2dH. All samples were taken at night. Fragments were frozen in liquid nitrogen. We employed a reference design where all control and heat-stressed samples were compared to a pooled reference aRNA sample composed of aRNA from the four t0C fragments. Since all RNA samples were compared to the reference sample, direct comparisons of gene expression across all time points and conditions can be performed.

Project description:Despite their early evolutionary divergence, reef-building corals exhibit complex circadian responses to diurnal, lunar and annual changes in the conditions around them. Understanding circadian regulation in reef-building corals is, however, complicated by the presence of photosynthetic endosymbionts that have a profound physiochemical influence on the intracellular environment. How corals tune their animal-based clock machinery to respond to external cues while at the same time responding to internal physiological changes imposed by the symbiont is not clear. We explore this issue using microarray analysis to dissect genes governed directly by the circadian machinery from those responding indirectly as a consequence of changing internal oxygen tensions. Three coral colonies were sampled at 4 hr intervals during two consecutive days under an ambient light/dark (LD) cycle and under constant darkness (DD). In total 72 arrays were hybridized, as each array represented a sample from a treatment and a time point (n=3).

Project description:Pocilloporid corals (Pocillopora acuta) from an upwelling coral reef in Southern Taiwan (Houbihu) were exposed to one of four experimental treatments: ambient temperature (25C)+ambient pCO2 (~430 ppm), ambient temperature+high pCO2 (~850 ppm), high temperature (29C)+ambient pCO2, or high temperature+high pCO2. Proteins were extracted from 2-3 replicates per treatment (n=11 total), digested, and analyzed by iTRAQ followed by nano-liquid chromatography and MS/MS. Since there are only eight iTRAQ labels, 6 and 5 samples were run in each batch ("1" & "2," respectively, in the attached documents), and a normalizer sample was labeled with iTRAQ tag 113 and run in both batches to control for batch-to-batch variation. I am attaching the RAW files, MZML files, MZID files, the P. acuta-Cladocopium transcriptome (conceptually translated to proteins; as a fasta file), a supplemental data (Excel) file, and the associated manuscript, which has not yet been submitted and it subject to change.
