Long-Range Dispersal and High-Latitude Environments Influence the Population Structure of a “Stress-Tolerant” Dinoflagellate Endosymbiont

The migration and dispersal of stress-tolerant symbiotic dinoflagellates (genus Symbiodinium) may influence the response of symbiotic reef-building corals to a warming climate. We analyzed the genetic structure of the stress-tolerant endosymbiont, Symbiodinium glynni nomen nudum (ITS2 - D1), obtaine...
