Heritability of the symbiodinium community in vertically- and horizontally-transmitting broadcast spawning corals

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Kate M. Quigley from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the research: Heritability of the Symbiodinium community in vertically- and horizontally-transmitting broadcast spawning corals, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 19/01/2017

SUMMARY

    The authors quantify the heritability of the initial Symbiodinium communities for two broadcast-spawning corals with different symbiont transmission modes: Acropora tenuis has environmental acquisition, whereas Montipora digitata has maternal transmission. Using high throughput sequencing of the ITS-2 region to characterize communities in parents, juveniles and eggs, the authors describe previously undocumented Symbiodinium diversity and dynamics in both corals . . .
