Contrasting Lesion Dynamics of White Syndrome among the scleractinian corals Porites spp.
White syndrome (WS) is currently the most prevalent disease of scleractinian corals in the Indo-Pacific region, with an ability to exist in both epizootic and enzootic states. Here, we present results of an examination of WS lesion dynamics and show that potentially associated traits of host morphol...
