This study shows that bacterial inoculation induces DNA methylation changes in corals, which correlate with gene expression and affect stress resilience.

This study identifies oxygen deprivation as a key factor in rapid coral mortality triggered by temperature increases, highlighting its implications for coral reef health.

The paper uses single-cell RNA sequencing to show that transposable element transcription is linked to cell-type identity and physiological functions in the coral Acropora hemprichii.

Unify learns universal cell embeddings across species by integrating RNA expression with protein and general language model embeddings, enabling cross-species comparisons and accurate perturbation response prediction.

The paper shows that glucose from symbiotic algae supports nitrogen assimilation in Aiptasia, enabling survival in nutrient-poor environments.

The paper assembles the genome of Symbiodinium microadriaticum using Hi-C and describes its unique chromosomal structure and organization.

This study shows genome-wide CpG methylation inheritance in corals and links methylation variation to environmental factors like temperature and salinity.

The paper demonstrates stable genetic transformation of dinoflagellate chloroplasts using a plasmid-like fragmented chloroplast genome, showing long-term expression and maintenance of introduced genes.

The paper identifies a core set of symbiosis-associated genes in Aiptasia, revealing host-dependent nitrogen recycling as a mechanism to control symbiont growth through carbon-dependent feedback.

The paper identifies anchorene, a carotenoid-derived dialdehyde, as an endogenous signal required for anchor root formation in Arabidopsis, showing it modulates auxin homeostasis.

This paper presents a chromosome-scale genome assembly for the orange clownfish, providing a valuable resource for studying reef fish ecology and evolution.

This study attempts to transform Symbiodinium microadriaticum using various methods but fails to confer antibiotic or herbicide resistance.

This study compares the genomes of two coral species, Stylophora pistillata and Acropora digitifera, revealing significant differences in gene expansion and function related to symbiosis and stress response.
