Genetic Traces of Recent Long-Distance Dispersal in a Predominantly Self-Recruiting Coral
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: Understanding of the magnitude and direction of the exchange of individuals among geographically separated subpopulations that comprise a metapopulation (connectivity) can lead to an improved ability to forecast how fast coral reef organisms are likely to recover from disturbance events that cause extensive mortality. Reef corals that brood their larvae internally and release mature larvae are believed to show little exchange of larvae over ecological times scales and are therefore expected to recover extremely slowly from large-scale perturbations. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Using analysis of ten DNA microsatellite loci, we show that although Great Barrier Reef (GBR) populations of the brooding coral, Seriatopora hystrix, are mostly self-seeded and some populations are highly isolated, a considerable amount of sexual larvae (up to approximately 4%) has been exchanged among several reefs 10 s to 100 s km apart over the past few generations. Our results further indicate that S. hystrix is capable of producing asexual propagules with similar long-distance dispersal abilities (approximately 1.4% of the sampled colonies had a multilocus genotype that also occurred at another sampling location), which may aid in recovery from environmental disturbances. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Patterns of connectivity in this and probably other GBR corals are complex and need to be resolved in greater detail through genetic characterisation of different cohorts and linkage of genetic data with fine-scale hydrodynamic models.

S. hystrix has a short pelagic larval duration, leading to high self-recruitment with most larvae settling within 100 m of the mother colony in north-west Australia, though longer dispersal can occur.
“S. hystrix has a short PLD, resulting in high levels of self-recruitment with the majority of larvae settling within 100 m of their mother colony in north-west Australia (Underwood et al. 2007), although longer distance dispersal can occur (van Oppen et al. 2008).”

The strong genetic population structure found in this study is congruent with findings for the same species in Australia and Japan, and for other brooding corals with a similarly short pelagic larval duration.
“The strong genetic population structure in this study is congruent with findings for the same species from other biogeographic regions such as Australia (van Oppen et al. 2008;Underwood et al. 2009) and Japan (Nakajima et al. 2017), as well as for other brooding corals with a similarly short PLD.”
From Population genetics of the brooding coral Seriatopora hystrix reveals patterns of strong genetic differentiation in the Western Indian Ocean (2021) · cites this paper as van Oppen et al. 2008
S. hystrix on the Great Barrier Reef and in northern Western Australia shows comparable differentiation (mean FST = 0.20 over about 500 km), including isolation-by-distance (overall FST = 0.198 over about 505 km).
“Comparable levels of differentiation were found for S. hystrix on the Great Barrier Reef and in northern Western Australia (mean F ST = 0.20 ∼500 km, van Oppen et al. 2008), including isolation-by-distance (overall F ST = 0.198 ∼505 km, Underwood et al. 2009).”

“Hence, their local retention is commonly high (van Oppen et al. 2008; Figueiredo et al. 2013), limiting the proportion that disperses long distances.”

“Van Oppen et al. (2008) observed a mean pairwise FST of 0.20 among S. hystrix populations on the Great Barrier Reef, compared to FST = 0.36 across the Bird’s Head Seascape, even though the spatial scale is considerably smaller.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
