The paper examines transcriptomic responses to thermal stress in shallow and mesophotic red coral populations, finding distinct gene expression patterns suggesting local adaptation influences thermal resilience.

This paper presents the first chromosome-level genome assembly and annotation for the red coral Corallium rubrum, providing genomic resources for conservation and population genomics studies.

This study shows that recurrent marine heatwaves are causing gorgonian populations to decline due to low adaptive potential.

The paper presents the genome sequence of Paramuricea clavata, a Mediterranean octocoral, to study genetic factors underlying differential responses to thermal stress and support conservation efforts.
