Biological and ecological research needed for the effective management of the bar-cheeked coral trout and the chinaman cod, including an investigation into the factors controlling sex-change in the serranids (cods, groupers and coral trout).

This study provides detailed biological and ecological information on the chinaman cod, Epinephelus rivulatus, and biological information on the bar-cheeked coral trout, Plectropomus maculatus, in West Australian waters.

Factors affecting the toxicity of the dinoflagellate, Gambierdiscus toxicus, and the development of ciguatera outbreaks

This project confirmed that the benthic dinoflagellate Gambierdiscus toxicus is an origin of putative ciguatoxin precursors called gambiertoxins. It was recently found in French Polynesia that gambiertoxins could be extracted from biodetritus containing wild G. toxicus and that gambiertoxins were...
