Evaluation of hatchery production of scallop Pecten fumatas

This project was prompted by poor or variable availability of wild commercial scallop spat for fisheries enhancement and farming in southern Australia and by generally poor and variable success of commercial oyster hatcheries in earlier attempts to fill this shortfall. Scallops from Jervis Bay,...

Improved diagnosis of the infectious disease epizootic haemopoietic necrosis (EHN) in salmonid fish in Australia

Epizootic haematopoietic necrosis vims (EHNV) was the first virus isolated from finfish in Australia. It causes outbreaks of disease in wild redfin perch (Perca fluviatilis) and also in hatchery reared rainbow trout (Onchorhynchus mykiss). The principal aim of this project, which was to develop a...

Improving prawn hatchery production by reducing losses due to bacterial disease

Bacterial necrosis was the only bacterial disease syndrome seen during monitoring of 8 larval production runs at 2 commercial hatcheries during the study. Results indicated a possible causal relationship between concentrations of one or more components of the "presumptive Vibrio" populations in...
