From: Chimerism as a strategy to improve the resilience of boulder corals

Change in diameter of Orbicella of three colony types, chimeras (A) and two size classes of singletons (B: Small and C: Large) that survived the entire study duration outplanted on the reef. The two species are combined due to the low number of surviving colonies (total n = 6 for Chimeras, n = 14 for Small Singletons; n = 34 for Large Singletons). Growth intervals are depicted before (~ 17 mos) and during (months 17–24 mos) a regional severe heatwave. Bar plots show mean values; error bars represent 95% CI.
