Hi All,
I thought a new study might be of interest to many on the list-serv.
Just out this week in PNAS is a paper describing our work to uncover the
genetic mechanisms of increased heat tolerance in reef building corals.
Here's a link to the paper as well as a few press pieces about the article.
cheers,
dan
