Today’s #DailyCoralRead: Clay et al. show that modern Caribbean corals descend from fast-growing, stress-sensitive ancestors. With warming seas, communities may shift toward Eocene-like corals –slower-growing, longer-lived, and more stress-tolerant. 🌊🌡️

Thrilled to have our work featured by the Rutgers Office of Public Outreach and Communication! 🧪🪸 http://tiny.cc/ri3r001 #marinegenomics #coralreefs #conservation

🪸 Today’s #DailyCoralRead introduces HERS—Host Evaluation of Reliance on Symbionts—a new metric for quantifying host dependence on symbiont autotrophy using stable isotope ellipse overlap in C & N space. Cool new tool for holobiont nutritional ecology!

An important reminder that (especially for ancient #coral lineages!) we cannot expect coexpression structures to be the same for two coral species (or even populations) - even for conserved phenotypes like bleaching! 🪸

🪸 Today's #DailyCoralRead is actually a study on European Poplar! Learning from other systems can help progress #CoralReefScience! 🧪🌳
