Improved <i>Cladocopium goreaui</i> Genome Assembly Reveals Features of a Facultative Coral Symbiont and the Complex Evolutionary History of Dinoflagellate Genes

Dinoflagellates of the family Symbiodiniaceae are crucial photosymbionts in corals and other marine organisms. Of these, <i>Cladocopium goreaui</i> is one of the most dominant symbiont species in the Indo-Pacific. Here, we present an improved genome assembly of <i>C. goreaui</i&...
