Development of gene expression markers of acute heat-light stress in reef-building corals of the genus Porites.

Development of gene expression markers of acute heat-light stress in reef-building corals of the genus Porites.

Coral reefs are declining worldwide due to increased incidence of climate-induced coral bleaching, which will have widespread biodiversity and economic impacts. A simple method to measure the sub-bleaching level of heat-light stress experienced by corals would greatly inform reef management practice...
