SCRC: SCRC Honours Scholarship: Ying Ying Lee "Understanding the role of Kiss1/Kiss1r system in controlling the puberty in Yellowtail kingfish and Southern Bluefin Tuna"

The cDNA encoding for G-protein coupled receptor 54 (GPR54) was cloned from the brains of Southern Bluefin Tuna (SBT) and Yellowtail Kingfish (YTK). The SBT GPR54 has an open reading frame of 1134bp encoding a predicted 378 amino acid peptide, containing seven putative transmembrane domains, a 138...

SCRC: Development of germ cell transplantation technology for the Australian aquaculture industry

The project was designed to explore the application of surrogate technology as an alternative broodstock system for the Southern Bluefin Tuna (SBT). Surrogate technology, also known as germ cell transplantation, uses germ cells from a donor species, in this case SBT, and transplants them into a host...

SCRC: PhD : The effect of temperature on reproductive development in maiden and repeat spawning farmed Atlantic Salmon: Understanding the molecular basis for improved egg quality and survival

Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) broodstock can encounter temperatures above 20°C, which has a marked negative effect on reproductive development. Broodstock management strategies are needed in order to maintain egg quality in the face of thermal challenge either due to seasonal...
