Assessing the impacts of experimentally elevated temperature on the biological composition and molecular chaperone gene expression of a reef coral.

Due to the potential for increasing ocean temperatures to detrimentally impact reef-building corals, there is an urgent need to better understand not only the coral thermal stress response, but also natural variation in their sub-cellular composition. To address this issue, while simultaneously deve...
