Transcriptome of Thalassicolla nucleata Holobiont Reveals Details of a Radiolarian Symbiotic Relationship

Radiolarians are a group of ubiquitous, yet poorly understood, large protists that often harbor photosymbionts. We studied the solitary radiolarian Thalassicolla nucleata by analyzing the transcriptome of its holobiont. We found that T. nucleata contained two dinoflagellate symbionts, one photosymbi...
