Aquafin CRC - Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Subprogram: effects of husbandry on AGD

Before this project our knowledge of the effects of husbandry on Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) was limited. This project allowed on-farm assessment of effects of husbandry procedures and stock characteristics on AGD severity. Furthermore, we investigated the potential to re-use fresh water for...

Aquafin CRC - Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Subprogram: use of immunomodulation to improve fish performance in Australian temperate water finfish aquaculture

Before this project our knowledge of immune response in Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) was fundamentally limited and more information was required to assess the potential for immunomodulators in the management of AGD. We confirmed that injection of bacterial DNA motif (CpG oligonucleotides) six...

Seafood CRC: genetic selection for Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) resilience in the Tasmanian Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) breeding program

Amoebic gill disease (AGD) continues to have a significant economic impact upon production of sea-farmed Atlantic salmon in Tasmania. Reducing mortality is economically important for the fish farmer and is equally important from an animal welfare perspective. The process of freshwater bathing...
