Improving risk management of paralytic shellfish toxins (PST) in the Blacklip Abalone (Haliotis rubra rubra)

The accumulation of paralytic shellfish toxins (PST) of microalgal origin in abalone tissues causes a trade and human health risk that requires active management. Toxic algal blooms of the genus Alexandrium have recently caused several abalone harvest closures on the east coast of Australia. Risk...

Seafood CRC: overseas market access for shellfish

The oyster, scallop and mussel industries currently export product to the EU. Due to the periodic occurrence of Okadaic Acid (OA) and Saxitoxin (STX) group toxins in Australian shellfish the implementation of reduced regulatory levels would reduce the amount of product eligible for EU export....

Population genomic assessment of Australian Blacklip Abalone for abalone viral ganglioneuritis (AVG) resistance

Abalone viral ganglioneuritis (AVG) remains a significant threat to the economic viability and stability of the Abalone industry in south-eastern Australia. Consequently, there is an urgent need for strategic research aimed at determining the likely vulnerability of fisheries to future AVG outbreaks...

Can commercial harvest of long-spined sea urchins reduce the impact of urchin grazing on abalone and lobster fisheries?

At low-levels of exploitation, commercial harvesting of long-spined sea urchins was found to prevent increase in urchin density. Adjacent unfished locations experienced an increase in both urchin density and grazed area over the 2014 – 2016 study period. Research sampling of populations...
