Temporal analysis of gene expression in a field population of the Scleractinian coral Montastraea faveolata

Organisms maintain homeostasis and abate cellular damage by altering gene expression. Coral colonies have been shown to produce unique gene expression patterns in response to different environmental stimuli. In order to understand these induced changes, the natural variation in expression of genetic biomarkers needs to be determined. In this study, an array of genes isolated from Scleractinian coral was used to track changes in gene expression within a population of Montastraea faveolata from April to October 2001 in the Florida Keys.
