We know remarkably little about the lives of the enigmatic animals that live on our stunning coral reefs, except that many have a tiny larval stage that travels far beyond where the adults can go. This project explores how genomes and environment work together to ensure that larvae spread their species around to keep our reefs vibrant and diverse.

我们对生活在我们令人惊叹的珊瑚礁上的神秘动物的生活知之甚少，除了许多有一个微小的幼虫阶段，远远超出成年人可以去的地方。该项目探讨了基因组和环境如何共同作用，以确保幼虫传播他们的物种，以保持我们的珊瑚礁充满活力和多样性。
