  • Taxonomy and Diversity of the Sponge Fauna from Walters Shoal, a Shallow Seamount in the Western Indian Ocean Region

P. Payne MSc Thesis, Department of Biodiversity and Conservation Biology, University of the Western Cape. Seamounts are poorly understood ubiquitous undersea features, with less than 4% sampled for scientific purposes globally. Consequently, the fauna associated with seamounts in the Indian Ocean remains largely unknown, with less than 300 species recorded. One such feature within this region is Walters Shoal, a shallow seamount located on the South Madagascar Ridge, which is situated approximately 400 nautical miles south of Madagascar and 600 nautical miles east of South Africa. Even though it penetrates the euphotic zone (summit is 15 m below the sea surface) and is protected by the Southern Indian Ocean Deep- Sea Fishers Association, there is a paucity of biodiversity and oceanographic data.

  • Trophic Ecology of the Tropical Pacific Sponge Mycale Grandis Inferred from Amino Acid Compound-Specific Isotopic Analyses

Shih1 & Karen E. Selph1 & Christopher B. Wall2 & Natalie J. Wallsgrove 3 & Michael P. Lesser4 & Brian N. Popp3 Received: 19 March 2019 /Accepted: 2 July 2019 /Published online: 17 July 2019 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Many sponges host abundant and active microbial communities that may play a role in the uptake of dissolved organic matter (DOM) by the sponge holobiont, although the mechanism of DOM uptake and metabolism is uncertain. Bulk and compound- specific isotopic analysis of whole sponge, isolated sponge cells, and isolated symbiotic microbial cells of the shallow water tropical Pacific sponge Mycale grandis were used to elucidate the trophic relationships between the host sponge and its associated microbial community. δ15Nandδ13CvaluesofaminoacidsinM. grandis isolated sponge cells are not different from those of its bacterial symbionts. Consequently, there is no difference in trophic position of the sponge and its symbiotic microbes indicating that M. grandis sponge cell isolates do not display amino acid isotopic characteristics typical of metazoan feeding. Furthermore, both the isolated microbial and sponge cell fractions were characterized by a similarly high ΣVvalue—a measure of bacterial-re-synthesis of organic matter calculated from the sum of variance among individual δ15N values of trophic amino acids. These high ΣVvalues observed in the sponge suggest that M. grandis is not reliant on translocated photosynthate from photosymbionts or feeding on water column picoplankton, but obtains nutrition through the uptake of amino acids of bacterial origin.

  • UH HIMB Sponge Biodiversity FY19 Final Report
    Project Title Using genetic techniques to determine the unknown diversity and possible alien origin of sponges present in Hawaii Agency, Division University of Hawaii, Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology Total Amount Requested $114,200 Amount Awarded $49,145 Applicants (First and Last Name) Robert Toonen & Jan Vicente Applicant Email Address [email protected] Project Start Date 1-Oct-18 Estimated Project End Date 31-May-20 Efforts to detect and prevent alien introductions depend on understanding which species are already present1–3. This is particularly important when working with taxonomically challenging groups like marine sponges (phylum Porifera), where morphological characters are highly limited, and misidentifications are common4. Although sponges are a major component of the fouling community, they remain highly understudied because they are so difficult to identify4. The Keyhole Sponge is already present in Hawaiʻi5,6, but others like Terpios hoshinota, which is invading many locations across the Pacific7,8, kills corals and turns the entire reefscape into a gray carpet that would be devastating to Hawaiʻi tourism if introduced here. However, many gray sponges look alike, and it is only through the combined use of morphological and genetic characters that most sponges can be identified reliably4. To date, there have been very few taxonomic assessments of sponges in Hawaiʻi9–14, and only the most recent of these has included any DNA barcodes in an effort to confirm the visual identifications15. Most of the early studies did not provide museum specimens or even detailed descriptions about how the species were identified, and the few vouchers that exist from these studies were dried which precludes DNA comparisons.

  • Sponge Contributions to the Geology and Biology of Reefs: Past, Present, and Future 5
    Sponge Contributions to the Geology and Biology of Reefs: Past, Present, and Future 5 Janie Wulff Abstract Histories of sponges and reefs have been intertwined from the beginning. Paleozoic and Mesozoic sponges generated solid building blocks, and constructed reefs in collaboration with microbes and other encrusting organisms. During the Cenozoic, sponges on reefs have assumed various accessory geological roles, including adhering living corals to the reef frame, protecting solid biogenic carbonate from bioeroders, generating sediment and weakening corals by eroding solid substrate, and consolidating loose rubble to facilitate coral recruitment and reef recovery after physical disturbance. These many influences of sponges on substratum stability, and on coral survival and recruitment, blur distinctions between geological vs. biological roles. Biological roles of sponges on modern reefs include highly efficient filtering of bacteria- sized plankton from the water column, harboring of hundreds of species of animal and plant symbionts, influencing seawater chemistry in conjunction with their diverse microbial symbionts, and serving as food for charismatic megafauna. Sponges may have been playing these roles for hundreds of millions of years, but the meager fossil record of soft-bodied sponges impedes historical analysis. Sponges are masters of intrigue. They play roles that cannot be observed directly and then vanish without a trace, thereby thwarting understanding of their roles in the absence of carefully controlled manipulative experiments and time-series observations. Sponges are more heterogeneous than corals in their ecological requirements and vulnerabilities. Seri- ous misinterpretations have resulted from over-generalizing from a few conspicuous species to the thousands of coral-reef sponge species, representing over twenty orders in three classes, and a great variety of body plans and relationships to corals and solid carbonate substrata.

  • Metabolic Mechanisms for the Evolution of Stable Symbiosis
    Metabolic mechanisms for the evolution of stable symbiosis Megan Elisabeth Stig Sørensen A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Sheffield Department of Animal and Plant Sciences September 2019 2 Abstract Endosymbiosis involves the merger of once independent organisms; this evolutionary transition has defined the evolutionary history of eukaryotes and continues to underpin the function of a wide range of ecosystems. Endosymbioses are evolutionarily dynamic because the inherent conflict between the self-interest of the partners make the breakdown of the interaction ever-likely and this is exacerbated by the environmental context dependence of the benefits of symbiosis. This necessitates selection for partner switching, which can reshuffle the genetic identities of symbiotic partnerships and so rescue symbioses from cheater-induced extinction and enable rapid adaptation to environmental change. However, the mechanisms of partner-specificity, that underlie the potential for partner switching, are unknown. Here I report the metabolic mechanisms that control partner specificity within the tractable microbial photosymbiosis between Paramecium bursaria and Chlorella. I have found that metabolic function, and not genetic identity, enables partner-switching, but that genetic variation plays an important role in maintaining variation in symbiotic phenotype. In addition, I observed that symbiont stress-responses played an important role in partner specificity, and that alleviating symbiont stress responses may be an important strategy of generalist host genotypes. Furthermore, I have used experimental evolution to show that a novel, initially non-beneficial association can rapidly evolve to become a beneficial symbiosis. These results demonstrate that partner integration is defined by metabolic compatibility and that initially maladapted host- symbiont pairings can rapidly evolve to overcome their lack of co-adaptation through alterations to metabolism and symbiont regulation.
