Aquafin CRC - Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Subprogram: establishment of challenge for AGD

This project has increased our knowledge of Amoebic Gill Disease, in particular about the pathogen and the dynamics of infection. We have described a new species of neoparamoeba, Neoparamoeba perurans, and showed that it has been consistently associated with AGD worldwide. Stocking...

Aquafin CRC - Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Subprogram: use of immunomodulation to improve fish performance in Australian temperate water finfish aquaculture

Before this project our knowledge of immune response in Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) was fundamentally limited and more information was required to assess the potential for immunomodulators in the management of AGD. We confirmed that injection of bacterial DNA motif (CpG oligonucleotides) six...

Aquafin CRC - Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Subprogram: effects of husbandry on AGD

Before this project our knowledge of the effects of husbandry on Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) was limited. This project allowed on-farm assessment of effects of husbandry procedures and stock characteristics on AGD severity. Furthermore, we investigated the potential to re-use fresh water for...

Investigating options to improve bycatch reduction in tropical prawn trawl fisheries - a workshop for fishers

Since 2000 the use of bycatch reduction devices (BRDs) and turtle excluder devices (TEDs) has been a mandatory requirement in most tropical prawn trawl fisheries in Australia. Despite this period of mandatory use, the number of BRD designs has remained largely unchanged and their performance can, at...

Seafood CRC: improving hatchery production of Yellowtail Kingfish larvae and fingerlings

Clean Seas Tuna is the largest commercial hatchery producer of Yellowtail Kingfish fingerlings in Australia. Following three years of research (2007-2010) into larval rearing issues, the company still experienced variability in results between the two hatcheries, Port Augusta and Arno Bay, between...

Aquafin CRC - Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Subprogram: model development for epidemiology of Amoebic Gill Disease

Amoebic Gill Disease (AGD) is the main health problem affecting salmon industry in Southern Tasmania. To improve management of fish with AGD on the farms, the industry needs better understanding of AGD epidemiology. This will provide a basis on which to develop strategies for new...
