Nitric oxide mediates coral bleaching through an apoptotic‐like cell death pathway: evidence from a model sea anemone‐dinoflagellate symbiosis by Hawkins, Thomas D., Bradley, Benjamin J., Davy, Simon K.

“…Coral bleaching (involving the loss of symbiotic algae from the cnidarian host) is a major threat to coral reefs and appears to be mediated at the cellular…”

Nitric oxide and coral bleaching: is peroxynitrite generation required for symbiosis collapse? by Hawkins, Thomas D, Davy, Simon K

“…The temperature-induced collapse ('bleaching') of the coral-dinoflagellate symbiosis is hypothesised to result from symbiont oxidative stress and a subsequent…”

Temperature moderates the infectiousness of two conspecific Symbiodinium strains isolated from the same host population by Hawkins, Thomas D., Hagemeyer, Julia. C. G., Warner, Mark E.

“…Summary Symbioses between cnidarians and symbiotic dinoflagellates (Symbiodinium) are ecologically important and physiologically diverse. This diversity…”

Nitric oxide production and tolerance differ among Symbiodinium types exposed to heat stress by Hawkins, Thomas D, Davy, Simon K

“…Nitric oxide (NO) is a ubiquitous molecule and its involvement in metazoan-microbe symbiosis is well known. Evidence suggests that it plays a role in the…”

Antioxidant responses to heat and light stress differ with habitat in a common reef coral by Hawkins, Thomas D., Krueger, Thomas, Wilkinson, Shaun P., Fisher, Paul L., Davy, Simon K.

“…Coral bleaching—the stress-induced collapse of the coral– Symbiodinium symbiosis—is a significant driver of worldwide coral reef degradation. Yet, not all…”

Partitioning of Respiration in an Animal-Algal Symbiosis: Implications for Different Aerobic Capacity between Symbiodinium spp by Hawkins, Thomas D, Hagemeyer, Julia C G, Hoadley, Kenneth D, Marsh, Adam G, Warner, Mark E

“…Cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbioses are ecologically important and the subject of much investigation. However, our understanding of critical aspects of…”
