Six priorities to advance the science and practice of coral reef restoration worldwide Open
Coral reef restoration is a rapidly growing movement galvanized by the accelerating degradation of the world's tropical coral reefs. The need for concerted and collaborative action focused on the recovery of coral reef ecosystems coalesced…

Interventions to help coral reefs under global change—A complex decision challenge Open
Climate change is impacting coral reefs now. Recent pan-tropical bleaching events driven by unprecedented global heat waves have shifted the playing field for coral reef management and policy. While best-practice conventional management re…

Symposium report: Great Barrier Reef restoration symposium, 2018 Open
The Great Barrier Reef (GBR), located off the coast of Queensland, Australia, is a UNESCO1 World Heritage site, one of the seven natural wonders of the world and the world's largest living structure. Spanning 2300 km, it has more than 450 …

Constructing an Invasion Machine: The Rapid Evolution of a Dispersal-Enhancing Phenotype During the Cane Toad Invasion of Australia Open
Biological invasions can induce rapid evolutionary change. As cane toads (Rhinella marina) have spread across tropical Australia over an 80-year period, their rate of invasion has increased from around 15 to 60 km per annum. Toads at the i…

Genetic markers for antioxidant capacity in a reef-building coral Open
We identify the first quantitative trait loci for antioxidant capacity in corals, providing possible new avenues for management and restoration approaches.

Quantitative high resolution melting: two methods to determine SNP allele frequencies from pooled samples Open
Compared to genotyping individual samples, these methods can save considerable effort and genotyping costs when relatively few candidate SNPs must be profiled across a large number of populations. One of the main applications of this metho…

The ReFuGe 2020 Consortium—using “omics” approaches to explore the adaptability and resilience of coral holobionts to environmental change Open
Human-induced environmental changes have been linked directly with loss of biodiversity. Coral reefs, which have been severely impacted by anthropogenic activities over the last few decades, exemplify this global problem and provide an opp…
