Abstract excerpt
The genetic diversity and connectivity of reef-building coral populations are key to their survival in warming oceans. Yet our understanding of corals' demographic resilience and adaptive potential is complicated by cryptic species diversity, wide geographic distributions, and complex coral-algal symbioses. To address these challenges, we investigated the genetic connectivity and diversity of the...
