The Acropora Recovery Implementation Team (ARIT) is an advisory group
convened by NOAA/NMFS to advise them on recovery actions and priorities
under the US Endangered Species Act recovery plan.  One of the published
ESA recovery actions relates to genetic banking.  The ARIT's working group
on genetic banking has issued a report, now available here
<http://crc.reefresilience.org/resources/>, describing goals for a genetic
bank to aid in species recovery and recommendations for developing such a
genetic archive for *Acropora palmata* and *A.cervicornis*.
