Growing coral larger and faster: micro-colony-fusion as a strategy for accelerating coral cover
Fusion is an important life history strategy for clonal organisms to increase access to shared resources, to compete for space, and to recover from disturbance. For reef building corals, fragmentation and colony fusion are key components of resilience to disturbance. Observations of small fragments...
