Hi,
thanks a lot to everybody who replied to my question; it looks like there is
no non-invasive way (yet) to tell a boy from a girl; but:
What about the biological mechanisms that determine sex in corals? For
example, is it genetically pre-determined, or sex of a colony can change,
say, depending on age and/or environmental conditions? Any information of
this sort will be much appreciated.
