Fig 4 — Symbiodinium phylotype composition in various Porites astreoides life stages reared in situ (A) and ex situ (B). (A) Symbiodinium phylotype composition of shallow P. astreoides adults, their brooded planulae, and newly settled juveniles reared in situ on shallow (10 m) and upper mesophotic (30 m) reefs. Symbiodinium phylotype frequencies differed significantly between (1) adults and planulae, (2) planulae and juveniles transplanted to the shallow reef, (3) planulae and juveniles transplanted to the upper mesophotic reef, and (4) between juveniles transplanted to the different depths. There was no difference in Symbiodinium phylotype frequencies between adults and juveniles transplanted to different depths. (B) Symbiodinium phylotype composition of planulae and ex situ, reared juvenile P. astreoides. No difference was found in Symbiodinium phylotype frequency of (1) planulae or juveniles from different parental depths or (2) between planulae and juvenile.
