This project was a continuation of the Aquaculture Innovation Hub (Project 2008/902). The Phase II Hub focussed on research extension activities in the finfish, crustacean and shellfish sectors and on increasing trans-Tasman communications among aquaculture producers and researchers.
The Phase II...
The research travel grant allowed a CRC PhD student to attend a training course on the introduction to the statistical software environment “R”, reading and handling data, graphic analysis and data output analysis, writing simple R-based functions, developing flow control structures, and...
Fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) is a genetic technique that involves fluorescently labelling chromosomes so that each can be identified individually under a high powered microscope. FISH could be an important tool for detecting the aneuploid frequency in tetraploid oyster populations. This...
This trip involved targeted meetings with key research and industry personnel to consolidate the existing relationship and secure ongoing research support for two Seafood CRC student projects as well as to advance the research agendas developed as part of those projects and establish ongoing...
Andrew King, a Seafood CRC PhD student was awarded a research travel grant to attend an intensive course on the economics of aquaculture held at the University of Portsmouth in the United Kingdom in April 2012.
The course was given by two of the world's leading experts, and was of direct relevance...
