| contents | Symbiodiniaceae and Bacterial Microbiome Dynamics Differentially Impact the Survival of Dominant Reef-Flat Porites Corals. Lock, Colin Miller, Therese C Anthony, Colin J Rouzé, Héloïse Fifer, James McDermott, Grace Tramonte, Carlos A Paulino, Loreto Davies, Sarah W Raymundo, Laurie Bentlage, Bastian Animals Anthozoa Coral Reefs Microbiota Bacteria Symbiosis Dinoflagellida RNA, Ribosomal, 16S Coral reefs face significant threats across the globe, prompting a surge in restoration efforts aimed at mitigating their global decline. The health, resilience, and adaptability of corals are greatly influenced by their microbial communities, and while the response of coral microbiomes to many environmental stressors has been extensively studied, less is known about their natural dynamics following transplantation, which is an essential process for restoring degraded reef habitats. In this study, we integrated DNA metabarcoding (16S & ITS2) with ecological monitoring to investigate the dynamics of Symbiodiniaceae and bacterial communities in two dominant coral spp., Porites lobata and Porites cylindrica, and their different colour morphs, as they underwent transplantation and an 18-week acclimatisation period. We saw significant differences in microbial communities between the two Porites spp., outplanting sites, and individual coral colonies, as well as a colour morph-related difference in P. lobata bacterial communities. We saw reduced relative abundances of Endozoicomonadaceae, specifically from the genus Parendozoicomonas, following transplantation. P. lobata colonies with later Symbiodiniaceae shifts (18 weeks) had lower long-term survival. Changes in Symbiodiniaceae and bacterial communities have implications for holobiont function and colony survival, which should be considered when designing and implementing coral reef rehabilitation projects. |
