Neat. Host flexibility by microbes is increasingly common. I’ll keep my eyes open for that next step! Nice work, Anthony!

Are full, active cells present or is this residual DNA?

We hope that these resources help to enable A. elegantissima to serve as another tractable experimental cnidarian system that aid in larger conservation efforts.

Lastly, we assayed the bacterial community and observed that it was similar in membership and composition across each of the three symbiotic phenotypes. Moreover, this community was dominated by a single Sphingomonas taxa, which is commonly observed across cnidarians.

We then determined that A. elegantissima has a symbiont-specific holobiont metabolome. The metabolic profiles differed significantly between each symbiotic phenotype, with individuals harboring either symbiont being more similar to each other than to aposymbiotic sea anemones.

Second, we used this genome to determine that A. elegantissima exhibits a symbiont-mediated shift in the host transcriptome. The largest proportion of differentially expressed genes was between sea anemones that were or were not associated with a photosymbiont.

First, we generated a reference genome for A. elegantissima, of which we were able to annotate ~72.2% of all predicted proteins.

The goal of this study was to generate a modern molecular, metabolic, and microbial understanding of the partnership between A. elegantissima and the dinoflagellate Breviolum muscatinei (formerly Symbiodinium), the chlorophyte Elliptochloris marina, and aposymbiotic individuals.
