Great work @jackckoch on beautiful Anthopleura! His data suggest that heterotrophy is the predominant trophic strategy rather than autotrophy from symbiosis and that carbonic anhydrase plays many roles in the partnership. @WeisLab

Excited to see our work published in Microbial Ecology on characterization of Symbiodiniaceae glycome and the role of N-glycans in cnidarian symbiosis! Check it out here: rdcu.be/b0MtX Thanks to @WeisLab @LoesgenLab and the Mechref Lab for the collaborative work!
We are online! Great collaboration with @WeisLab and Mechref Lab. Work by @trevortivey, @parkinsonje, @2020Fungi_Paige. "N-Linked Surface Glycan Biosynthesis, Composition, Inhibition, and Function in Cnidarian-Dinoflagellate Symbiosis" @Whitney_Lab link.springer.com/article/10โ€ฆ

Check out our new #preprint: direct characterization of the #Symbiodiniaceae glycome with mass spec! Manipulation of #glycan synthesis with bioinhibitors! Altered glycome = altered symbiont uptake! @WeisLab @LoesgenLab @OSUIB bit.ly/2PqWUq3

Very proud of our @WeisLab & @DavyLabNZ collab. out today in @ISMEJournal: Inter-partner specificity limits the acquisition of thermotolerant symbionts in a model cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis. #Symbiodiniaceae #Aiptasia #Exaiptasia Congrats, Yasmin! go.nature.com/2wPEJzP

yep!! no more work for today :D
Very proud of our new revision in @CurrentBiology splitting #Symbiodinium "clades" into different genera, an important change for coral-symbiont #taxonomy & #systematics. Also revised the molecular clock! @OSUScience @PennStateBio @RSRC_KAUST Open access: bit.ly/2AXu6jz
