Laboratory coral color recovery experiment

Son durum

In a laboratory experiment, bleached coral regained its color after contact with a healthy genetic match, becoming visually indistinguishable from its neighbor over nine weeks. The method’s stated limitation is that it requires genetically matched corals; the nine-week observation’s conclusion is not yet reported.
