Species-specific fertilisation kinetics in two structurally distinct Desmophyllum cold-water corals - Coral Reefs
Cold-water corals have been increasingly studied over recent decades; however, quantitative information on their fertilisation kinetics is lacking. Here, we quantified and compared sperm motility, egg...
