Coral propagation: a review of techniques for ornamental trade and reef restoration (2017, background): “…high latitude reefs in Western Australia), larvae of P. damicornis may be asexually pro- Reviews in Aquaculture (2015) 0, 1–19 © 2015 Wiley Publishing Asia Pty Ltd6 duced, thus juveniles raised from larvae of this species may have low genetic diversity (e.g. Ayre & Miller 2004; Miller & Ayre 2004).”
Blind to morphology: genetics identifies several widespread ecologically common species and few endemics among Indo‐Pacific cauliflower corals (Pocillopora, Scleractinia) (2013, background): “Despite being widely distributed, Pocillopora species are among the most susceptible reef-building corals to rapid climate change (McClanahan, 2004), and so are often the subject of ecological and physiological studies (Stoddart & Black, 1985; Ayre & Miller, 2004; Pinz on et al., 2012).”
Systematic and Biogeographical Patterns in the Reproductive Biology of Scleractinian Corals (2009, background): “In addition, some brooded larvae are produced asexually (Ayre & Miller 2004, Cairns 1988, Stoddart 1983); however, the precise nature of this process is unknown.”
Marginal coral populations: the densest known aggregation of Pocillopora in the Galápagos Archipelago is of asexual origin (2014, background): “In contrast, on the Great Barrier Reef and Lord Howe Island reef, sexual reproduction dominates (Benzie et al., 1995; Ayre et al., 1997; Ayre and Miller, 2004; Miller and Ayre, 2004).”
Lessons in modularity: the evolutionary ecology of colonial invertebrates (2005, background): “Unless larvae are themselves the product of amictic processes conserving the parental genome (Stoddart, 1983; Ayre and Resing, 1986; Ayre and Miller, 2004), neighbouring colonies will be genetically distinct and their fusion will generate a chimera.”
