SCRC: Measuring condition of lobsters to improve management of harvesting around periods of high transport mortality

This project provides the first comprehensive quantitative assessment of the health, physiological and nutritional condition of brindle and red lobsters from four different fishing areas of Tasmania at the start of the 2015 fishing season. Lobsters size (carapace length), baseline concentrations of...

Demersal finfish resource assessment survey of the north-west slope of Western Australia

The nature and extent of demersal finfish resources in deep slope waters (>200m) off the northwest coast of Western Australia are poorly understood. Existing fish trawl, trap and line fishing effort is concentrated in shallower waters (<200m), while trawling in deep slope waters...

Investigation of the present status and potential yield of "whitebait" stocks in Tasmanian rivers

At the time this report was written, there had not been any biological study of the whitebait fishery since the 1940's. That study concentrated on the species most abundant at that time (Lovettia sealii). However, with the decline in the fishery being essentially due to a decrease in abundance of...

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...

SCRC: Developing efficient diagnostic tools for assessing resistance to viral infection in abalone and oysters

The project examined the genetic basis of antiviral resistance in oysters and abalone in response to the significant disease threats posed by oyster and abalone herpesviruses. Laboratory-based systems for the growth and assay of such viruses are problematic. The project undertook to measure the...
