Cryptic diversity of the symbiotic cyanobacterium Synechococcus spongiarum among sponge hosts.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jun 2008

Erwin Patrick M, Thacker Robert W

Abstract excerpt

Cyanobacteria are common members of sponge-associated bacterial communities and are particularly abundant symbionts of coral reef sponges. The unicellular cyanobacterium Synechococcus spongiarum is the most prevalent photosynthetic symbiont in marine sponges and inhabits taxonomically diverse hosts from tropical and temperate reefs worldwide. Despite the global distribution of S. spongiarum, molecular analyses...
