Aquafin CRC - Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Subprogram: use of immunomodulation to improve fish performance in Australian temperate water finfish aquaculture

Before this project our knowledge of immune response in Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) was fundamentally limited and more information was required to assess the potential for immunomodulators in the management of AGD. We confirmed that injection of bacterial DNA motif (CpG oligonucleotides) six...

Need

this course directly links to providing sustainable development, utilisation and management of aquatic resources by meeting the current needs of the finfish aquaculture industry for training in the identification and emergency response of harmful algal blooms. It also embraces Aquaplan's mission to coordinate and respond to emergency aquatic animal disease outbreaks through reduction of potential mass mortality events form algal toxicosis.

Objectives

1. Instruct finfish aquaculture personnel in the identification of microalgae which are potentially detrimental to the industry.
2. Explore microalgal mitigation strategies with the finfish industry and conduct a workshop on viable industry solutions for microalgal blooms.
