Scharfenstein H, Peplow L, Alvarez-Roa C, Nitschke M, Chan W, Buerger P, et al.
New Phytol . 2024 Jul; 243(6):2130-2145. PMID: 39049585
Coral thermal bleaching resilience can be improved by enhancing photosymbiont thermal tolerance via experimental evolution. While successful for some strains, selection under stable temperatures was ineffective at increasing the thermal...

Nitschke M, Abrego D, Allen C, Alvarez-Roa C, Boulotte N, Buerger P, et al.
Trends Microbiol . 2024 Jun; 32(12):1241-1252. PMID: 38942718
The heat tolerance of corals is largely determined by their microbial photosymbionts (Symbiodiniaceae, colloquially known as zooxanthellae). Therefore, manipulating symbiont communities may enhance the ability of corals to survive summer...

Scharfenstein H, Alvarez-Roa C, Peplow L, Buerger P, Chan W, van Oppen M
Evol Appl . 2023 Sep; 16(9):1549-1567. PMID: 37752965
Despite the relevance of heat-evolved microalgal endosymbionts to coral reef restoration, to date, few Symbiodiniaceae strains have been thermally enhanced via experimental evolution. Here, we investigated whether the thermal tolerance...

Scharfenstein H, Chan W, Buerger P, Humphrey C, van Oppen M
ISME J . 2022 Feb; 16(6):1676-1679. PMID: 35132118
Early life stages of most coral species acquire microalgal endosymbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) from the environment, but whether exogenous symbiont uptake is possible in the adult life stage is unclear. Deep sequencing...
