Thermal and pCO2 Stress Elicit Divergent Transcriptomic Responses in a Resilient Coral (2016, methodology): “…includes regulation of heatshock proteins, apoptosis pathways, and genes associated with ion transport and metabolism (Meyer et al., 2011; Barshis et al., 2013; Dixon et al., 2015), with longer-term thermal stress causing broad-scale downregulation of basic metabolic processes…”
Sexual production of corals for reef restoration in the Anthropocene (2020, background): “…enables selective breeding of individuals with potentially advantageous traits, such as temperature tolerance (van Oppen et al. 2017), which may already exist in bleaching survivors and populations from naturally extreme or marginal environments (e.g. Barshis et al. 2013, Howells et al. 2016a).”
Mechanisms of reef coral resistance to future climate change (2014, methodology): “Data pipelines and statistical procedures followed those of De Wit et al. (13).”
Mechanisms of Thermal Tolerance in Reef-Building Corals across a Fine-Grained Environmental Mosaic: Lessons from Ofu, American Samoa (2018, background): “This is in contrast to the front loading mechanism seen by Barshis et al. (2013) in A. hyacinthus.”
A framework for incorporating evolutionary genomics into biodiversity conservation and management (2015, background): “Just as some aspects of a transcriptomic profile may indicate a species approaching a physiological limit, so can other changes in the profile highlight an underlying capacity to tolerate change through the physiological plasticity of individual genotypes, even when phenotypic responses are not outw”
Coral restoration research and technical developments: what we have learned so far (2019, background): “Both genetic fitness and acclimatization may play important roles in boosting heat tolerance (Barshis et al. 2013; Palumbi et al. 2014).”
Symbiodinium Functional Diversity in the Coral Siderastrea siderea Is Influenced by Thermal Stress and Reef Environment, but Not Ocean Acidification (2018, background): “(2014) similarly observed few transcriptional changes across >50,000 genes in response to thermal stress across two Symbiodinium lineages involved in symbiosis (D2, C3K), starkly contrasting the broad transcriptomic shifts observed in the symbiont’s host when exposed to identical conditions (Barshis”
