DeBoer, T. S., Baker, A. C., Erdmann, M. V., Jones, P. R., and Barber, P. H. (2012). Patterns of Symbiodinium distribution in three giant clam species across the biodiverse Bird’s Head region of Indonesia. Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. 444, 117–132. doi: 10.3354/meps09413 However, while MAAs and the associated UV-protection would be provided by the algal symbionts, iridocyte cells are actually produced by the bivalve host itself. This interaction between host-owned cells and the embedded algae would emphasize how the mutualistic component of the symbiotic relationship of Tridacninae and Symbiodiniaceae extends to protection from UVR. Further, this interaction is absent from photosymbiotic relationship of Symbiodiniaceae and corals, where the latter have to rely on the production of MAAs and the consequent photo-protection through their algal symbionts ( Rosic and Dove, 2011). Moreover, this stresses again that, although the relationship of Symbiodiniaceae with corals and with giant clams, respectively, are comparable in many ways (e.g., the provision of shelter, carbon, nitrogen, and other inorganic nutrients by the host to their algal symbionts, and simultaneous supply of photosynthetic metabolites by the symbiotic dinoflagellates to the host), some components, specifically the interactions driven by the iridocytes, of these symbioses are functionally different.

Pathol. 66, 307–310. doi: 10.1006/jipa.1995.1106 Light position matters in clamshell lighting, and even an adjustment of a few inches can dramatically change the final image.Temperatures were maintained at a consistent 25°C, with diurnal variations of less than 0.25°C, while pH values ranged from 8.1–8.25 pH units, also following a diurnal pattern controlled by light-mediated photosynthetic activity in the tank. Similarly, DO varied between 6.89 and 9.94 mg/L, also following a diurnal pattern with peaks during the daytime hours. Chlorophyll-a and phycoerythrin values showed high variability, with extreme peaks in July and August approaching the detection limit of the instruments and corresponding to visible increases in water turbidity.

Front. Mar. Sci. 7:465. doi: 10.3389/fmars.2020.00465 Using a reflector is an easy way to create clamshell lighting with minimal gear. However, with the subject holding the reflector in place, you may be more limited in your poses and composition. If the reflector is too limiting, you can use a second studio light as the fill instead. interior of a modern photo studio Use a Second Studio Light

Ip, Y. K., Hiong, K. C., Lim, L. J., Choo, C. Y., Boo, M. V., Wong, W. P., et al. (2018). Molecular characterization, light-dependent expression, and cellular localization of a host vacuolar-type H+-ATPase (VHA) subunit A in the giant clam, Tridacna squamosa, indicate the involvement of the host VHA in the uptake of inorganic carbon and its supply to the symbiotic zooxanthellae.

This light is shaped like a pearl, sitting in an open clam shell (in case we haven't made that obvious). The clam shell is made of ceramic and is kept lightweight, so it won’t take off a toe if you happen to drop it. Inside the clam shell is a removable pearl, which gives off the bright light you’d expect from one of these gorgeous orbs. Switch it on and it’ll change between green, blue, red, and purple… like Neptune himself is having a party (can you hear the choral coral?). Holt, A. L., Vahidinia, S., Gagnon, Y. L., Morse, D.

Efficient generation of diffraction-limited multi-sheet pattern for biological imaging. Opt. Lett. 40, 609–612 (2015). Just be cautious not to go overboard. The 45-degree positions that I discussed in my initial step-by-step section are designed to look flattering. Playing with the positioning is great, but don’t lose sight of your original goals! 3.
