Symbiodinium
Contents
Description
- Symbiodinium are responsible for the majority of primary production in coral reefs and found in a mutualistic symbiosis with multiple animal phyla.
- The genus Symbiodinium encompasses eight lineages (clades A–H), and multiple sub-clade types. Symbiodinium in clades A, B, C, and D are most commonly associated with metazoan hosts while clades C, D, F, G, and H with large soritid foraminifera[1] [2] .
