Assessing the impact of proposed marine protected areas on South Australian rock lobster catches

A state and federal collaborative program (NRSMPAs) to establish marine protected areas (MPAs) is underway nationwide. This project examines no-take zones designated for state territorial waters which lie predominantly inside 3 nautical miles from shore. In South Australia, the lobster...

Aquaculture diet development subprogram: inclusion of data on the nutritional value of ingredients used in aquaculture feeds in the Australasian Livestock Feed Ingredient (ALFI) Database

As a result of completing this project, the Australasian Livestock Feed Ingredient (ALFI) database now includes a large amount of information on the chemical composition and nutritional quality of feed grains for pigs, poultry (broilers, layers) and aquaculture species, and can be used by...

Habitat modification and its influence on prawn and crab fisheries

Experimental trawling in Gulf St Vincent indicated that epifaunal assemblages experienced substantial trawling mortality, which varied depending on sediment characteristics. Locations with strong currents and coarse sediments experienced minimal effects, whereas those with weak currents and...

Southern Bluefin Tuna Aquaculture Subprogram Project 1: implementation and coordination of research experiments conducted with farmed southern bluefin tuna to assess manufactured diets, feeding regimes and harvesting techniques

The Southern Bluefin Tuna (SBT), Thunnus maccoyii, Aquaculture Industry has undergone rapid expansion since it commenced in 1990. In 2002/03 the industry was Australia’s third largest export fishing industry (ABARE, 2002) with most of its value coming from aquaculture. In this year the...

Immuno-staining of a ciliate protozoan causing significant mortalilty of farmed tuna: the development of a rapid identification technique which will enable improved farm management practices to be implemented to minimise fish mortality

An immunofluorescent staining technique for the rapid detection of the ciliate protozoan Uronema sp. was developed during 1995 and 1996. The initial test was developed using seven cultures of Uronema sp. from various sources which were identified as Uronema nigricans by microscopical and...

Condition and its assessment in the southern rock lobster (Jasus edwardsii). Assessment of condition indices and moult staging techniques

In July 1993, a program was initiated by the South Australian Research and Development Institute (SARDI) and the South Australian Rock Lobster Research Association (SARLRA) to study the population dynamics of the Southern Rock Lobster. The study fitted with, and became part of, the tri-state...

Stock Identification and discrimination of snapper (Pagrus auratus) in South Australian waters, using molecular genetic techniques

The snapper (Pagrus auratus) fishery in South Australia is currently managed as one stock, although recent changes to the regional management of the recreational fishery have been based in part on an assumption of a multi-stock population structure. Tagging and genetic studies in other States...
