GBR - Genetic markers for environmental stress resistance in corals (AIMS)

Posted on 03 March 2011

This project investigated correlations between genotype and water quality parameters in two reef building corals on the Great Barrier Reef (GBR).The findings can be used to provide a genetic tool to measure past impacts of selection and predict the future evolutionary response of corals to changes in water quality.
