Positive genetic associations among fitness traits support evolvability of a reef-building coral under multiple stressors

2019-03-11

Abstract excerpt

Climate change threatens organisms in a variety of interactive ways that requires simultaneous adaptation of multiple traits. Predicting evolutionary responses requires an understanding of the potential for synergistic interactions among stressors and the genetic variance and covariance among fitness-related traits that may reinforce or constrain an adaptive response. Here we investigate the capacity of Acropora...
