Pushing the limits: expanding the temperature tolerance of a coral photosymbiont through differing selection regimes

H. J. Scharfenstein, L. M. Peplow, C. Alvarez-Roa, M. Nitschke, P. Buerger, W. Y. Chan, M. J. H. van Oppen

This study shows that fluctuating temperature regimes, especially diurnal oscillations, increase thermal tolerance in the coral photosymbiont Durusdinium trenchii compared to stable temperatures.

Heat-evolved algal symbionts enhance bleaching tolerance of adult corals without trade-off against growth

W. Y. Chan, D. Rudd, L. Meyers, S. H. Topa, M. van Oppen

This study shows that heat-evolved algal symbionts enhance coral thermotolerance without reducing growth under ambient temperature.

Sex and dominance status affect allogrooming in free-ranging feral cattle

G. M. W. Hodgson, K. J. Flay, T. A. Perroux, W. Y. Chan, A. G. McElligott

The paper examines how sex and dominance status influence allogrooming in free-ranging feral cattle, finding that dominant females receive more grooming and males groom females more than other males.

Spatial metabolomics for symbiotic marine invertebrates

W. Y. Chan, D. Rudd, M. J. H. van Oppen

This paper develops a mass spectrometry imaging workflow to study host-microbe metabolite exchange in cnidarians, revealing spatial patterns of symbiont regulation and metabolism.
