Figure 4. Coral growth under interspecific competition in the presence of different competitors.

(a) Acropora variabilis, (b) Pocillopora damicornis, (c) Stylophora pistillata, (d) Cyphastrea chalcidicum, (e) Galaxea fascicularis, and (f ) Porites lutea. Data are pooled across pH treatments (n = 12 for each bar). In each panel, the solid horizontal line and shaded bar indicate mean and standard error of that species growing under intraspecific competition. Error bars show standard error and letters above bars indicate homogeneous subsets (for each species) based on post-hoc comparisons.
