• Survey of deep-dwelling red coral (Corallium rubrum) populations at Cap de Creus (NW Mediterranean) (2008, background): “gonads their habitat, rendering the contribution of young colonies becomes almost negligible (Coma et al. 1995; Kapela and Lasker 1999; Beiring and Lasker 2000; Santangelo et al. 2008).”
• Effects of spatial variability and colony size on the reproductive output and gonadal development cycle of the Mediterranean red coral (Corallium rubrum L.) (2006, background): “A greater resource allocation to growth at smaller size means a faster escape out of vulnerable size classes (Kojis and Quinn 1981; Szmant-Froelich 1985; Soong 1993; Ward 1995a; Hall and Hughes 1996; Beiring and Lasker 2000), improving their chances of survival, as small colonies suffer greater mort”
• Propagation of the threatened staghorn coral Acropora cervicornis: methods to minimize the impacts of fragment collection and maximize production (2010, background): “…effects on parent-colony growth or other vital functions like reproduction, which are commonly influenced by size and disturbance history in clonal organisms (e.g., Hughes and Connell 1987; Smith and Hughes 1999; Beiring and Lasker 2000; Lirman 2000b; Epstein et al. 2001; Okubo et al. 2005).”
• Red Coral Fishery at the Costa Brava (NW Mediterranean): Case Study of an Overharvested Precious Coral (2007, background): “In the case of the tropical coral Plexaura flexuosa, large colonies (>70 cm in height) produced on average six times more gonads per polyp than small colonies, and 98% of the gonads were produced by 50% of the larger colonies ( Beiring and Lasker 2000 ).”
