Mechanisms and potential immune tradeoffs of accelerated coral growth induced by microfragmentation
Microfragmentation is the act of cutting corals into small pieces (~1 cm) to accelerate the growth rates of corals relative to growth rates observed when maintaining larger-sized fragments. This rapid tissue and skeletal expansion technique offers great potential for supporting reef restoration, yet...
