A first-of-its-kind unique partnership with the Nature Conservancy Australia will seek to restore and "future-proof" giant kelp forests. 

CSIRO determines that global warming above 2 degrees-C will decrease viable ocean habitats and will affect fishing grounds and productivity. 

A pilot study on the sensory properties of Pacific oysters and abalone conducted at the CSIRO Sensory Laboratory in Australia found differences among the samples produced in different growing conditions and regions. 

Climate change, shifting incomes and evolving diets complicate the search for solutions to obesity and undernutrition in vulnerable populations. 

El cambio climático, los ingresos cambiantes y las dietas en evolución complican la búsqueda de soluciones para la obesidad y la desnutrición en las poblaciones vulnerables. 

A shrimp feed management survey indicated that Australian farmers placed a high importance on better estimations of feed demand in improving FCR. 

Increasing integration of various disruptive technologies into aquaculture practices will improve productivity and sustainability. 

An expert panel of scientists convened by CRC discussed driving the blue economy while improving seafood nutrition, accessibility and sustainability. 

Color can impact the price of shrimp, with dark red preferred in some markets. Research using colorimeters to quantify color in raw and cooked shrimp found that although shrimp raised on white or black substrates exhibited different coloration, total carotenoid levels were the same in all the animals. 

Collaborative work at Great Southern Waters has established a closed, genetically diverse breeding population of hybrid abalone. The breeding strategy is to produce and improve commercial stocks with the required hybrid traits by understanding the inheritance of those traits in the pure species and the hybrids. 

Traditionally, Australian farmers relied on wild broodstock to source black tiger shrimp larvae, but substantial progress has been made in the domestication and selective breeding of Australian P. monodon. 

Once satisfactory performance is demonstrated in commercial larval rearing and grow-out, automated induction will finalize the triploidy commercialization. 

In shrimp farming it is critical to ensure that residual nitrogen waste is minimized or eliminated prior to discharge into receiving waters. 

Initial insights on the effects of the commercial marine microbial biomass Novacq as an additive in feeds for black tiger shrimp postlarvae and juveniles. 

Australian team models the impact of climate change on zooplankton, which represents about 40 percent of the world’s marine biomass. 

Fish is the world’s most traded protein – and a healthy choice that will help feed the world’s growing population into the future. Aquaculture represents the most efficient method by which to convert feed to edible protein, and its use of marine ingredients is being addressed. 

The black tiger shrimp is the second most important, farmed shrimp species globally. Because of its importance in Australia, the new ARC Hub for Advanced Prawn Breeding will develop a scalable, advanced breeding program for the species as well as bring its genetic knowledge to a level comparable to that of livestock. 

El camarón tigre negro es la segunda especie de camarón cultivado a nivel mundial. Debido a su importancia en Australia, el nuevo Centro ARC para Reproducción Avanzada de Camarones desarrollará un programa de cría escalable y avanzado para la especie, y llevará su conocimiento genético a un nivel comparable al de la ganadería.
