More than one genotype: how common is intracolonial genetic variability in scleractinian corals?

Molecular ecology - 1 Jun 2015

Schweinsberg Maximilian, Weiss Linda C, Striewski Sebastian, Tollrian Ralph, Lampert Kathrin P

Abstract excerpt

In recent years, a few colonial marine invertebrates have shown intracolonial genetic variability, a previously unreported phenomenon. Intracolonial genetic variability describes the occurrence of more than a single genotype within an individual colony. This variability can be traced back to two underlying processes: chimerism and mosaicism. Chimerism is the fusion of two or more individuals, whereas mosaicism...
