Heat-tolerant Porites spp exhibit divergent sexual modes and morphs. Porites cylindrica are
gonochoric, but their sex ratios vary geographically, additionally, sympatric color morphs in …

Differences in selective pressures and the energetic cost of gametes in gonochoristic corals
should vary with the sex of the colony, which may lead to sexual dimorphism. Coral colonies …

In the emerald coral Porites panamensis, the rates of elongation and calcification of colonies
are higher in males than in females, probably because of the higher energetic demands of …

Scleractinian corals typically reproduce sexually as either gonochoric (separate male and
female) or hermaphroditic (producing both eggs and sperm) colonies. The Caribbean pillar …

Corals utilize sex-derived diversity to adapt to environmental changes and to occupy new
ecological niches. With major declines in coral reefs worldwide and calls for ecosystem …

Induction of gonad maturation and synchronized spawning of corals ex situ has been mostly
used to propagate corals for restoration, but it also provides a unique opportunity to study …

Our understanding of the reproductive biology of corals from the Mexican southeastern
Pacific is limited, and consequently, the role of reproduction in structuring coral communities …

P ocillopora damicornis is one of the best studied reef‐building corals, yet it's somewhat
unique reproductive strategy remains poorly understood. Genetic studies indicate that P …

Sexual reproduction by scleractinian reef corals is important for maintaining coral
populations and evolutionary processes. The ongoing global renaissance in coral …
