• Marginal coral populations: the densest known aggregation of Pocillopora in the Galápagos Archipelago is of asexual origin (2014, methodology): “104 Considerable variability in genotypic evenness and richness on small spatial scales is common in 105 corals, ranging from minimal clonal replication to reefs dominated by just one genet (Hunter, 106 1993;Ayre and Hughes, 2000;Miller and Ayre, 2004;Baums et al., 2006;Sherman et al., 2006).”
• New perspectives on ecological mechanisms affecting coral recruitment on reefs (2008, background): “Although corals can reproduce clonally (Fautin, 2003; Baums et al., 2006), recruitment resulting from sexual reproduction is the primary means of recolonization for most species (Connell et al., 1997) and adds genetic variation to coral populations, which may increase survival of a species.”
• Host population genetic structure and zooxanthellae diversity of two reef-building coral species along the Florida Reef Tract and wider Caribbean (2010, background): “…faveolata have recently become available (Severance and Karl 2006; Vollmer and Palumbi 2007), but these studies include little sampling coverage in the FRT, a region where A. palmata populations show greatly reduced genotypic diversity relative to the Caribbean as a whole (Baums et al. 2006b).”
• Climate change and coral reef bleaching: An ecological assessment of long-term impacts, recovery trends and future outlook (2008, background): “Baums et al. (2006) have shown that the population density of survivors is important in determining the relative importance of sexual vs.”
• Footprints on water: the genetic wake of dispersal among reefs (2007, background): “Consistent with this, several reef species show a weak relationship between gene Xow and distance at small and large spatial scales, with a tighter match inbetween the extremes (Lavery et al. 1995; Planes et al. 1996; Planes and Fauvelot 2002).”
