Stability of coral–endosymbiont associations during and after a thermal stress event in the southern Great Barrier Reef (2009, background): “Scientific, California USA; LaJeunesse 2002 ).”
Most corals may not change their symbionts (2006, methodology): “Considering (1), in some instances zooxanthella clades are cultured from a coral that are not known to associate with that coral in nature (Goulet & Coffroth 1997, Santos et al. 2001, LaJeunesse 2002).”
The distribution of mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) and the phylogenetic identity of symbiotic dinoflagellates in cnidarian hosts from the Mexican Caribbean (2006, methodology): “Many clades contain numerous ecologically distinctive types characterized principally through PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) analyses of the Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) regions ( LaJeunesse, 2002, 2005 ).”
Specificity and stability in high latitude eastern Pacific coral‐algal symbioses (2008, methodology): “Oral discs were removed and homogenized from soft-bodied actiniarian and zoanthidian taxa, and the Symbiodinium cells separated by centrifugation as described by LaJeunesse (2002).”
Highly stable symbioses among western Atlantic brooding corals (2006, methodology): “Porites astreoides is known to be symbiotic with several diVerent ITS types of Symbiodinium [including types A4a, A3, B1 (LaJeunesse 2002) as well as a C type (Baker 2001)], however, colonies from this study were detected with only type A4a.”
DIFFERENTIAL IMPACTS OF PHOTOACCLIMATION AND THERMAL STRESS ON THE PHOTOBIOLOGY OF FOUR DIFFERENT PHYLOTYPES OF SYMBIODINIUM (PYRRHOPHYTA) 1 (2006, background): “Natural zooxanthellae distributions are strongly influenced by both light across depth gradients found on a reef as well as over larger geographic scales (LaJeunesse 2002, Ulstrup and van Oppen 2003, Iglesias-Prieto et al. 2004).”
Spectral reflectance of coral (2004, background): “LaJeunesse (2002) found prominent ecological zonation present in several of the more abundant zooxanthellae clades, and it is conceivable that relative pigment These lists represent 106 and 37 brown and blue coral colonies, respectively, that have been taxonomically identified.”
Novel algal symbiont (Symbiodinium spp.) diversity in reef corals of Western Australia (2011, methodology): “Prominent bands characteristic of unique profiles (as described by LaJeunesse 2002) were excised, bead-beaten, and re-amplified using the same primer set (without the GC clamp) under the conditions described above.”
In situ photobiology of corals over large depth ranges: A multivariate analysis on the roles of environment, host, and algal symbiont (2008, background): “…transcribed spacer regions 1 and 2 (ITS1 and ITS2) further characterize numerous subcladal genetically distinct types (Lajeunesse 2001; van Oppen et al. 2001), which closely approximate physiologically and ecologically distinct populations (Lajeunesse 2002; Warner et al. 2006; Frade et al. 2008).”
Development of clade-specific Symbiodinium primers for quantitative PCR (qPCR) and their application to detecting clade D symbionts in Caribbean corals (2009, methodology): “the detection limits of DGGE under current protocols for Symbiodinium (e.g., LaJeunesse 2002 ).”
