Abstract

aquaculture biotechnology endocrinology reproduction fish
This project is an industrial PhD research, which means that it is a university research planned to have a direct application for the industry collaborator of the project, CleanSeas Tuna Ltd (CST, Arno Bay, South Australia). Relevant biotechnological methods were applied to manipulate the endocrine regulation of reproduction of the main farmed species at CST. Each of the species cultured presents a number of bottlenecks that affect directly or indirectly the reproductive performance of the broodstock. This PhD reports on the investigations aimed in the long term to enhance the aquaculture of Yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi, YTK) and Southern Bluefin tuna (Thunnus maccoyii, SBT).
