Socio-economic valuation of allocation options between recreational and commercial sectors

Because sustainable use of fisheries-related resources is finite, the sharing or allocation of these resources is inevitable. It is also clear that allocation decisions can be enormously contentious amongst different stakeholder groups, may be politically difficult, and are typically a significant...

Objectives

1. Assess the utility of a range of DNA techniques for examining genetic variation within species of penaeid prawn
2. Refine those techniques for examining east coast parwn stocks
3. Describe the genetic stock structure of two commercial species (Penaeus esculantus and P. plebejus) throughout their east coast distribution
4. Determine whether genetically distinct stocks of these species exist in the east coast fishery and, if so, locate the boundaries between such stocks
5. Quantify the potential rates of effective prawn migration between regions for each species
6. Provide specific advice on the management implications of the results
