Report on a one day workshop to define oyster ‘condition’ and to review the techniques available for its assessment.  Read More

2009/729 Australian edible oyster industry business plan 2009-2014

The Australian oyster industry comprises approximately 550+ individuals and businesses located principally in three states, NSW, South Australia and Tasmania. This projects reports on a national business R&D plan for the Australian oyster growing sector for 2010-2014  Read More

2009/743 Reproductive condition, marketability and survival in oyster breeding strategies

The Australian Seafood Industries' (ASI) breeding program is now in its eighth generation of selectively bred Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) families, concentrating in South Australia and Tasmania on increased turnover, shell shape and uniformity. The oyster industries now require breeding programs to focus on quality and market appeal, to increase competitiveness alongside imported and alternative products. This project looked for preliminary evidence of sensory variation between standard a  Read More

2009/764 Impact of short-term exposure to acid sulphate leachate parameters on the biochemical condition of stressed Pacific Oysters

This Honours thesis titled ‘Impact of Short-Term Exposure to Acid Sulphate Soil Leachate Paramaters on the Biochemical Condition of Stressed Pacific Oysters Crassostea gigas' was completed by Joel Kellam-Stock in fulfillment of the requirements of the Honours degree of Bachelor of Technology (Aquaculture) at Flinders University.  Read More

2010/724 Development of tools for the sustainable management of genetics in polyploid Pacific Oysters

This thesis developed and utilised suites of microsatellite markers to determine the baseline diversity of native, naturalised and cultured diploid oysters.  Read More

2010/734 Oyster over-catch: Cold shock treatment

A commercial scale, hypersaline, cold-shock bath, dubbed the “Super Salty Slush Puppy” was constructed to provide proof of concept of cold shock treatment for over-catch control.  Read More

2011/718 Molecular analysis of the effect of stressors on oysters

During their life-time, cultivated and wild oysters are exposed to a variety of environmental stressors, including salinity and temperature fluctuations, pollution and pathogens in their natural habitat. This study generated and examined the changes in transcriptome of Sydney Rock Oysters in response to environmental stressors.  Read More

2011/726 Wanted dead or alive: Novel technologies for measuring infectious norovirus particles

2011/766.02 Seafood CRC Oyster Business Benchmarking Project Report on Extension Activities

This project was completed by RDS Partners under contract by the Australian Seafood CRC to assist with gathering and collating feedback from the oyster industry regarding extension and promotion activities associated with the “Benchmarking the Australian Oyster Industry Project”.  Read More

2011/772 Impacts and predictive modelling of coastal upwelling on the South Australian oyster industry

This project compiled and studied data that has been collected over the past 10 years within oyster harvesting areas. This information was used to understand how the presence of phytoplankton (or lack thereof) varied with weather conditions or mortality events. This will then inform growers of best farming times, provide a predictive ability to put product in the water and give some certainty as to mortality events.  Read More
