Description:

Description: English: In vitro: Acropora tenuis cells of the IVB5 line and symbiosis with the photosynthetic dinoflagellate, Breviolum minutum (Symbiodiniaceae). Two modes of interaction between coral cells and dinoflagellates. (A,B) Settlement of dinoflagellates in coral cell cytoplasm, (A) outside and (B) inside a vacuole. (C,D) Fragmentation followed by collapse of dinoflagellates in coral cell cytoplasm. Fragmentation appears more severe in (C) than (D). Dinoflagellates not engulfed by coral cells are indicated with arrows. Scale bar, 20 μm. Date: 14 July 2021.
