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: 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...

Seafood CRC: Towards all female Penaeus monodon populations using androgenic gland manipulations
Australian prawn aquaculture production is based predominantly on P. monodon farming, with larger sized prawns attract premium prices in the local market. Females grow significantly larger than males, and hence, a technology to develop all-female monosex populations would offer competitive advantage...
