Examining The Effectiveness Of Probiotic Therapy For Improving Growth Performance Of Triploid Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus Tshawytscha) In Aquaculture Using A Behavioural Genomics Approach, Chelsea Frank Jan 2023

Examining The Effectiveness Of Probiotic Therapy For Improving Growth Performance Of Triploid Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus Tshawytscha) In Aquaculture Using A Behavioural Genomics Approach, Chelsea Frank

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

With an increasing human population, there has been increased production of fish to meet nutritional needs. Commercial aquaculture accounts for a significant portion of seafood production with salmonids being the major farmed finfish in Canada. To obtain greater biomass from aquaculture with minimal drawbacks (e.g., compromised flesh quality), triploidization has been implemented, altering ploidy from 2N to 3N, to induce sterility and promote energy investment towards somatic growth. Triploid individuals experience transcriptional and behavioural changes resulting in disease, mortalities, and reduced growth. Probiotic therapies (live microorganisms) have been recommended to potentially overcome drawbacks of triploidy and improve mass due to …

Resource Assessment Report Temperate Demersal Elasmobranch Resource Of Western Australia, Matias Braccini, Nick Blay, S. A. Hesp, Brett Molony

Fisheries research reports

This document provides a cumulative description and assessment of the TDER and all of the fishing activities (i.e. fisheries / fishing sectors) affecting this resource in WA. Future Resource Assessment Reports will assess the Statewide Sharks and Rays Resource. The report is focused on the temperate indicator species (whiskery, gummy, dusky and sandbar sharks) used to assess the suites of demersal sharks and rays that comprise this resource. These species are primarily captured by demersal gillnets used in the TDGDLF that operate in the West Coast and South Coast Bioregions. For the North Coast bioregion, no commercial fishing for sharks …

Workshop On Sustainable Development Of Marine Fish Farming In Wa, Peter Rogers, R Fletcher Oct 2002

Workshop On Sustainable Development Of Marine Fish Farming In Wa, Peter Rogers, R Fletcher

Fisheries management papers

The purpose of this paper is twofold. First to provide an overview of the role of government and more particularly the Department of Fisheries and second to outline government expectations for aquaculture development agencies in the implementation of sustainable development initiatives and the effect this could have on the management of aquaculture within WA.
