Abstract

Coral photosynthetic endosymbionts (Symbiodinium) are phylogenetically very diverse, yet the extent of inter- and intraspecific functional variation within clades remains largely underexplored. Understanding this variability will be critical for future research on climate change mediated responses. A properly functioning thylakoid membrane is essential for optimal photosynthetic performance both in free-living and in hospite conditions. Here we analyze the thylakoid membrane melting points of 13...
