I agree with you about how useful this gene discovery actually is. If the coral cant survive in its environment, does it really matter if scientists know if the coral will make it or not? This does not change the fact that the coral is in an environment that it is not suited to. I believe they should be focusing on the furthering the experiment as you said, to modify the gene to help the coral survive in a wider niche. They could also focus more on preventing the problem in oceans rather than just playing defense and trying to fix problems as they come.Joelle Tuckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03092378424485840799noreply@blogger.com
