Lenz, Elizabeth A Donahue, Megan J Gates, Ruth D Putnam, Hollie M van der Steeg, Eveline Padilla-Gamiño, Jacqueline L Animals Anthozoa Coral Reefs Reproduction Coral Bleaching Hawaii Male Female Climate Change Identifying processes that promote coral reef recovery and resilience is crucial as ocean warming becomes more frequent and severe. Sexual reproduction is essential for the replenishment of coral populations and maintenance of genetic diversity; however, the ability for corals to reproduce may be impaired by marine heatwaves that cause coral bleaching. In 2014 and 2015, the Hawaiian Islands experienced coral bleaching with differential bleaching susceptibility in the species Montipora capitata, a dominant reef-building coral in the region. We tested the hypothesis that coral bleaching resistance enhances reproductive capacity and offspring performance by examining the reproductive biology of colonies that bleached and recovered (B) and colonies that did not bleach (NB) in 2015 in the subsequent spawning seasons. The proportion of colonies that spawned was higher in 2016 than in 2017. Regardless of parental bleaching history, we found eggs with higher abnormality and bundles with fewer eggs in 2016 than 2017. While reproductive output was similar between B and NB colonies in 2016, survivorship of offspring that year were significantly influenced by the parental bleaching history (egg donor × sperm donor: B × B, B × NB, NB × B, and NB × NB). Offspring produced by NB egg donors had the highest survivorship, while offspring from previously bleached colonies had the lowest survivorship, highlighting the negative effects of bleaching on parental investment and offspring performance. While sexual reproduction continues in M. capitata post-bleaching, gametes are differentially impacted by recovery time following a bleaching event and by parental bleaching resistance. Our results demonstrate the importance of identifying bleaching resistant individuals during and after heating events. This study further highlights the significance of maternal effects through potential egg provisioning for offspring survivorship and provides a baseline for human-assisted intervention (i.e., selective breeding) to mitigate the effects of climate change on coral reefs. |
