A new study has shown that selective breeding can lead to a modest rise in coral heat tolerance. The study documents the world s first effort to selectively breed adult corals for enhanced heat tolerance, i.e. the ability of adult corals to survive intense marine heatwaves. The breeding effort was a success, showing that it is possible to improve the heat tolerance of adult coral offspring, even in a single generation.

Coral reefs throughout the world have suffered immensely from global heating due to human-caused climate change. Australia’s Great Barrier Reef — the largest coral reef system in the world — has experienced four mass bleaching events in seven years, leading to die-offs in up to half of its shallow water reefs.  A new study has found that selectively breeding corals can lead to a moderate rise in their tolerance to marine heat waves. “This work s…
