Aquafin CRC - Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Subprogram: molecular assessment of resistance to AGD in Atlantic salmon

The outcome of this project is the development, at the request of industry, of a proposal to enhance the genetic gains in the industry selective breeding program for AGD resistance through marker assisted selection. The confidence to proceed with such a proposal is brought about by the extensive...

Seafood CRC: synopsis of Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) research to date and review/recommendation of future AGD related R&D directions including the development of a vaccine for AGD

The major outcome of this project was the development of a 2011 R&D strategy by the TSGA. This included a list of R&D priorities for 2011, including AGD related research, and a specific list of areas of interest for 2011. Subsequent to this the TSGA received 7 project proposals pertaining to...

Designing, implementing and assessing an integrated monitoring program for the NPF: developing an application to stock assessment

For more than a decade the Northern Prawn Fishery assessments have indicated that the tiger prawn resource is overexploited. Deriso’s1 (2001) review of the tiger prawn assessment supported this conclusion and also drew attention to the high level of uncertainty in the assessment. Deriso...

Testing abalone empirical harvest strategies, for setting TACs and associated LMLs, that include the use of novel spatially explicit performance measures

The management of abalone stocks is difficult for many reasons including their high value and the exceptional levels of spatial structuring found in their stocks. In Tasmania, for example, suggestions to change such things as a legal minimum length or introduce a formal harvest strategy to replace...

Rock Lobster Enhancement and Aquaculture Subprogram: the nutrition of juvenile and adult lobsters to optimise survival, growth and condition

Research in FRDC RLEAS 98/303 established that tropical (Panulirus ornatus), southern (Jasus edwardsii) and western (Panulirus cygnus) rock lobsters readily consumed formulated pelleted dry feeds and exhibited a dose dependent growth response to dietary protein concentration. The derived optimum...

Seafood CRC: genetic selection for Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) resilience in the Tasmanian Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) breeding program

Amoebic gill disease (AGD) continues to have a significant economic impact upon production of sea-farmed Atlantic salmon in Tasmania. Reducing mortality is economically important for the fish farmer and is equally important from an animal welfare perspective. The process of freshwater bathing...
