2013/709 Piloting commercial scale supply of mass selected Sydney Rock Oysters



By Jane Clout

 

 

This project was developed to progress the long term commitment of both industry and research providers to providing lines of Sydney Rock Oyster selected for growth rate, shell shape and disease resistance, to farmers of this species. It progresses commercialisation outcomes and provides a platform for the delivery of outcomes of past and current CRC research projects.


This project aimed to:

  1. Develop protocols for broodstock management and perpetuation
  2. Develop improved communication with end users with regard to availability, properties andmanagement of available selected stocks.
  3. Coordinate hatchery requirements with broodstock availability to improve supply.
  4. Develop human resources with shellfish specific experience
  5. Introduce selected broodstock into more multiplier hatcheries.
  6. Develop a platform to support delilvery of outcomes of current research projects including the developing family breeding program.
