Project details
| Title: | Genetic Improvement - Fish |
| Id: | 2136 |
| Acronym: | Food Futures Flagship 2B5 - Genetic Improvement Fish |
| Investigator(s): | Nick Elliott
CSIRO Oceans & Atmosphere - Hobart [details] |
| Description: | The application of modern genetic technology to improve aquaculture production is a key focus for CMR aquaculture and our involvement within the Food Futures Flagship. Atlantic salmon is a key species for ISA and Flagship investment (Stream 2B Engineering Aquaculture Breeds Project 2B5). This project is focussed on further development of relations and business model with the key industry players to facilitate CSIRO involvement in the selective breeding program, and undertaking initial strategic research for the program and its design. It is anticipated that before the end of the project a long-term contract will have been negotiated with the relevant industry body for continued CSIRO involvement in Atlantic salmon selective breeding. |
