Understanding the genetic basis of reproductive isolation is a long-standing goal of speciation research. In recently diverged populations, genealogical discordance may reveal genes and genomic ...

A new study paints a gloomy picture of the future of tropical coral reefs. Researchers say Acropora, the most common genus of coral with the most different species, could lose the fight against the ...

After 10,000 years, they're now gone. Nearly all of Florida’s critically endangered Acropora coral colonies are now dead, after a record-breaking ocean heat wave in 2023. This marks the species’ ...

Australian scientists have sequenced the genome of the staghorn coral Acropora millepora, a major component of the Great Barrier Reef and coral reefs worldwide. This is the first animal genome project ...

"The book is complemented by a CD-ROM [Staghorn corals of the world, a key to species of Acropora] containing a LucID-based key to all species of Acropora and a photo library of type specimens from ...

Entrained circadian rhythms control many biological processes. These cyclical systems are synchronized by environmental signals but continue to free run for a considerable time when the synchronizing ...
