Seafood CRC: PhD: Molecular and quantitative genetics studies to improve breeding programs for key Australian aquaculture species

Fat or oil content in fish is an economically important trait as it is one of the primary determinants of flesh quality and consumer perception of the end-product. The market value of a carcass or fillets, particularly of large species such as kingfish and tuna, can be strongly influenced by the...

Identification of muscle parasite in Yellowtail Kingfish (Seriola lalandi) and Mahi Mahi (Coryphaena hippurus), and determination as to the efficacy of non-invasive screening technology for the purpose of identifying infected fish in a commercial fish processing environment

Yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi) and Mahi mahi (Coryphaena hippurus) are actively targeted by fishers in the warmer waters of northern NSW. Both species are becoming increasingly important to local fishers with escalating demand due to increased consumer awareness of the premium eating quality...
