Alternative interpretations of the experimental and ecological data (2007, background): “The more interesting question is whether corals can acquire resistance either through survival and reproduction of resistant genotypes, or through some sort of immunological memory which corals have demonstrated for allorecognition (Mullen et al., 2004; Sutherland et al., 2004), but not for disease ”
