NCCP: Review of Carp control via commercial exploitation

The present study, undertaken by Charles Sturt University, was developed to investigate the potential for commercial, or subsidised, fishery exploitation to effectively control carp populations in Australia. Using published literature examples of fish (and other) vertebrate pest-removal...

NCCP: identifying synergistic genetic bio control options for Cyprinus carpio in Australia

This study was undertaken by Wedekind Gutachten, Switzerland. Potentially synergistic genetic biocontrol technologies can be grouped into those that do not involve engineered DNA sequences and those that do. The former include the “sterile male” and the “Trojan Y...

NCCP: Investigation of nutrient interception pathways to enable circumvention of cyanobacterial blooms following carp mortality events

This investigation was undertaken by the University of Adelaide and the University of Western Australia as a part of the research priorities for the National Carp Control Plan. While proposed biological control agents to reduce carp numbers may have positive impacts to aquatic ecosystems, it is...

NCCP: Development of strategies to optimise release and clean up strategies underpinning possible use of herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3) for carp biocontrol in Australia

This study was undertaken by Charles Sturt University. Although there is a considerable knowledge gap in understanding the social-economic and environmental impacts of a fish kill, it is essential to recognise the risks associated with these events – especially water quality. In order to...

NCCP: assessment of options for utilisation of virus infected carp

This study was undertaken by Curtin University. Wild carp (Cyprinus carpio) are an invasive species found throughout Australian freshwater systems. The species is well established throughout the Murray-Darling basin (MDB) and makes up to 90% of the fish biomass in some areas. There are concerns that...

NCCP: Preparing for carp herpesvirus: a carp biomass estimate for eastern Australia

This study was undertaken by the Arthur Rylah Institute for the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning. Carp occur in a broad range of aquatic habitats (e.g. rivers, estuaries, wetlands, lakes, impoundments and irrigation networks) and their density varies spatially and temporally...

NCCP: Determination of the susceptibility of silver perch, Murray cod and rainbow trout to infection with CyHV-3

This research sought to build on the experimental evidence regarding non-target species susceptibility to CyHV-3. Three species which had been previously tested, but for which additional evidence would be needed to confirm non-susceptibility included Rainbow Trout, Silver Perch and Murray Cod.
