Potential and limits for rapid genetic adaptation to warming in a Great Barrier Reef coral.

PLoS genetics - 1 Apr 2018

Abstract excerpt

Can genetic adaptation in reef-building corals keep pace with the current rate of sea surface warming? Here we combine population genomics, biophysical modeling, and evolutionary simulations to predict future adaptation of the common coral Acropora millepora on the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). Genomics-derived migration rates were high (0.1-1% of immigrants per generation across half the latitudinal range of the...
