Environmental Variables and Gene Expression Profiles Associated with Cueing Reproductive Events in Cnidarians

Creator:

Crowder, Camerron M.

Abstract:

Coral reproduction is vital to the persistence of coral reefs. Decades of ecological studies have correlated environmental variables, such as temperature and light, to the timing of reproduction in anthozoan cnidarians, including corals and sea anemones. However, elevated temperatures associated with climate change impair reproductive success and threaten the resilience...
