SCRC: Population genetic structure of Sea Cucumbers (bêche-de-mer) in Northern Australia
Sandfish (Holothuria scabra), a commercially important species of Sea Cucumber, are fished off the northern Australian coast. Elsewhere in the Asia-Pacific region, where they are commonly fished, they have been found to be particularly vulnerable to over-exploitation. Currently, as little is known...

SCRC: PhD 6.06 – Capturing and maintaining genetic variation when initiating selective breeding programs for aquaculture
Barramundi is naturally a mass spawning species, which can be induced to spawn in captivity under conditions that attempt to replicate the natural environment. The Australian Barramundi industry has on hand a large number of mature broodstock that are currently supplying the grow-out market,...

SCRC: PDRS: Use of next generation DNA technologies for revealing the genetic impact of fisheries restocking and ranching
Several initiatives by the Australian Seafood CRC’s Future Harvest theme involve some form of stocking or enhancement of fisheries. In Western Australia, populations of Roe’s Abalone (Haliotis roei) are currently being restocked after the occurrence of a catastrophic mortality event,...

SCRC: The Australian Seafood Diet for Intergenerational Health: Development of a healthy high Australian seafood diet that will be acceptable to women of child-bearing age.(PhD student Lily Chan)
Consumers are advised to eat more fish for a range of health benefits, including for growth and development, protection against heart disease and lowering of plasma triglycerides. However, there are some caveats in these recommendations for some sub-groups of the population, such as those women who...

Seafood CRC: development of barramundi selective breeding entity II
In summary, we have made significant progress towards the establishment of the selective breeding program for barramundi by:
Registering a company for selective breeding of barramundi (Barratek) and producing a genetic business plan and lobbying document.
Identifying and characterising...

SCRC: SCRC Honours Scholarship H3.1– Impact of commercial hatchery practices on the contribution of broodstock to offspring and genetic diversity in the Yellowtail Kingfish breeding program (Dr Alex Safari: Student Daniel Tan)
Using small numbers of broodstock for breeding often leads to random drift in gene frequencies between generations. Effective population size (Ne) is used as an indicator to assess the rate of inbreeding and loss of genetic variation in small populations. In this study we used six microsatellites,...
