Deeper corals may help shallow reefs recover in the Florida keys.

Shallow-specific lineages showed reduced genetic diversity and higher inbreeding compared to depth-generalist lineages.

Mesophotic reefs emerged as crucial reproductive sources, particularly in the Lower and Upper Keys.

Corals from deeper zones hold significant potential to replenish and restore the declining shallow reefs in Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary .
