As photoautotrophs, diatoms have developed photoprotective mechanisms to deal with
excessive ambient light and to minimize photodamage to the photosynthetic apparatus. Most …

Coral reefs are highly diverse and productive ecosystems that thrive in oligotrophic waters of
tropical and subtropical oceans (Hoegh-Guldberg et al., 2017). Reefs are built by calcifying …

The ecological success and also the susceptibility of corals to bleaching have been
attributed to their obligate relationship with Symbiodinium and its functional diversity …
