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.

Project description:Using transcriptomics, we show that Symbiodinium acclimation to elevated temperature involves up-regulated expression of meiosis genes followed by up-regulated expression of numerous reactive oxygen species scavenging genes and molecular chaperone genes. Our study connects Symbiodinium transcriptional regulation with physiological heat stress responses as well as known bleaching responses of corals harboring these same Symbiodinium. By uncovering these critical links, we greatly advance understanding of the bleaching susceptibility of corals, which is a key process responsible for global coral reef health.

Project description:Coral reefs are based on the symbiotic relationship between corals and photosynthetic dinoflagellates of the genus Symbiodinium. We followed gene expression of coral larvae of Acropora palmata and Montastraea faveolata after exposure to Symbiodinium strains that differed in their ability to establish symbioses. We show that the coral host transcriptome remains almost unchanged during infection by competent symbionts, but is massively altered by symbionts that fail to establish symbioses. Our data suggest that successful coral-algal symbioses depend mainly on the symbionts' ability to enter the host in a stealth manner rather than a more active response from the coral host. Acropora palmata Samples: Three biological replicates of pooled larvae from each species and condition (i.e. untreated control, inoculated with competent Symbiodinium strain, inoculated with incompetent Symbiodinium strain) for both time points were hybridized against a pooled reference. Pooled references were constructed by combining equal amounts of aRNA from all control samples from A. palmata. References were labeled with Cy3, samples with Cy5. Montastraea faveolata Samples: Three biological replicates of pooled larvae from each species and condition (i.e. untreated control, inoculated with competent Symbiodinium strain, inoculated with incompetent Symbiodinium strain) for both time points were hybridized against a pooled reference. Pooled references were constructed by combining equal amounts of aRNA from all control samples from M. faveolata. References were labeled with Cy3, samples with Cy5. Symbiodinium sp.

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:Abstract The coral–dinoflagellate symbiosis is increasingly disrupted by global and local anthropogenic stressors. Coral bleaching is primarily a result of high sea surface temperatures, while eutrophication is associated with reef ecosystem degradation. Excess inorganic nitrogen relative to phosphate has been proposed to directly sensitise corals to thermal bleaching and accelerate reef decline. We assessed the proteomic response of the dinoflagellate coral symbiont Symbiodinium microadriaticum to elevated temperatures under multiple nutrient conditions by mass spectrometry. Elevated temperatures resulted in reductions of many chloroplast proteins, particularly light-harvesting complexes, with simultaneous increases in chaperone proteins. N:P imbalance had a larger effect on the proteome than temperature, but the biological processes and proteins responding to each stressor largely overlapped. The proteomes were highly similar at low N:P ratios but were strongly affected by phosphate starvation. High N:P ratios inhibited cell division, reflected by changes in proteins involved in protein translation. Imbalanced N:P did not increase sensitivity to high temperatures as measured by physiological means; however, imbalanced N:P strongly upregulated cell redox homeostasis proteins at high temperatures. As redox balance is critical during thermal bleaching, these data provide insight into the mechanisms of cellular responses to thermal and multiple stresses in the coral–dinoflagellate symbiosis.

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.
