Seafood CRC: benefit-cost analysis of marker assisted selection in Australian aquaculture species

This project relates to the research strategies developed by the CRC from projects that have scoped selective breeding for abalone, Yellowtail Kingfish and Barramundi. There is potential that genetic marker assisted selection (MAS) techniques could greatly speed the genetic progress in these...

SCRC: Optimising harvest practices for Yellowtail Kingfish

Farmed Yellowtail Kingfish (YTK) is considered to be a premium quality fish, ideal for sashimi and sushi, dishes comprised of raw fish. To be acceptable for such delicacies the flesh has to be oily, firm and slightly translucent, with a fine creamy texture and a delicate flavour. The price received,...

Experimental production of tetraploid oysters for use as broodstock for commercial hatchery production of triploids

Triploids (3n) are organisms with three sets of chromosomes, while the normal diploid (2n) organisms have only two sets. Over the past two decades, triploids have been studied in more than 20 species of molluscs. The main interests of those studies have primarily focused on their sterility and...
