Factors affecting the evolution of bleaching resistance in corals.

The American naturalist - 1 Feb 2008

Day Troy, Nagel Laura, van Oppen Madeleine J H, Caley M Julian

Abstract excerpt

We present a mathematical model of coevolutionary interactions between partners in a coral-algae mutualistic symbiosis. Our goal is to better understand factors affecting the potential evolution of bleaching resistance in corals in response to increased average sea temperatures. We explore the evolutionary consequences of four factors: (i) trade-offs among fitness components, (ii) different proximate mechanisms...
