Assisted sexual coral recruits show high thermal tolerance to the 2023 Caribbean mass bleaching event

Assisted sexual coral propagation, resulting in greater genet diversity via genetic recombination, has been hypothesized to lead to more adaptable and, hence, resilient restored populations compared to more common clonal techniques. Coral restoration efforts have resulted in substantial populations...
