A new study is aimed at quantifying how susceptible coral species are to disease by examining their immunity through a series of novel experiments and approaches. During the past three decades, environmental changes - including global warming - have likely led to the sharp increase in coral disease in reefs around the world. Coral species vary in their susceptibility to disease, but the reasons behind this variation are unknown. [Source: University of Texas at Arlington]
