Many ecosystems around the world are rapidly deteriorating due to both local and global
pressures, and perhaps none so precipitously as coral reefs. Management of coral reefs …

While the importance of mutualisms across the tree of life is recognized, it is not understood
why some organisms evolve high levels of dependence on mutualistic partnerships, while …

Active coral restoration typically involves two interventions: crossing gametes to facilitate
sexual larval propagation; and fragmenting, growing, and outplanting adult colonies to …

Determining the adaptive potential of foundation species, such as reef-building corals, is
urgent as the oceans warm and coral populations decline. Theory predicts that corals may …

Identifying which factors lead to coral bleaching resistance is a priority given the global
decline of coral reefs with ocean warming. During the second year of back‐to‐back …

Coral reefs have entered an era of 'ecological crisis' as climate change drives catastrophic
reef loss worldwide. Coral growth and stress susceptibility are regulated by their …

The rapid loss of reef-building corals owing to ocean warming is driving the development of
interventions such as coral propagation and restoration, selective breeding and assisted …

High sea surface temperatures often lead to coral bleaching wherein reef-building corals
lose significant numbers of their endosymbiotic dinoflagellates (Symbiodiniaceae). These …

The relationship between the coral genotype and the environment is an important area of
research in degraded coral reef ecosystems. We used a reciprocal outplanting experiment …

Some corals may become more resistant to bleaching by shuffling their Symbiodiniaceae
communities toward thermally tolerant species, and manipulations to boost the abundance …
