Innovative genetic tools to speed the breeding of North American Atlantic salmon are being made available to breeders in the United States for the first time.
The project will utilize hatchery technology recently developed at Oceanic Institute to culture species, such as yellow tang, to innovate culture methods for kumu.
Hormonally-induced synchronization of maturation may have the potential of producing a larger number of progenies from more families.
The project, part of the country’s plan to grow the local aquaculture industry and lead by researchers from the University of Waikato, aim to grow this species in land-based farms.
The Journal of World Aquaculture Society presented open access review papers that assess the commercial viability of 13 finfish species in the U.S.
The company will deliver 25 million Atlantic salmon eggs annually and will contribute technical expertise.
The company performed tests after some cases of a new variant of the IPN virus were identified in Norway, creating some uncertainty among breeders.
ICAR-CIBA researchers developed a combined hormone method for milkfish captive maturation and hatchery seed production in a tropical climate.
The development would open up huge scope for the country's brackishwater aquaculture sector with a steady supply of quality red snapper seeds.
The company unveiled a new RAS feed concept that aims to improve the efficiency of marine nurseries and support the development of hatchery businesses for marine fish species.
The discovery is expected to boost health and wellbeing and inform breeding practices, with new fish stocks being bred from parents that possess the genetic markers.
Marbase will invest $20 million in the new hatchery with a production capacity of 3-5 million lumpfish.
A new project will help increase the capacity of aquaculture development centers to produce 25 million tilapia fingerlings and 10 million catfish.
The project will explore a range of nutritional and environmental factors, such as the formulation of feeds and rearing conditions.
The company plans to build two hatcheries in Tay Ninh province and in Northern Vietnam to serve Vietnamese tilapia farmers.
The Norwegian Food Safety Authority's head office will not allow more projects for testing triploid salmon and will decide if it is a suitable method to safeguarding fish welfare.
James Cook University (JCU) scientists partnered with Mainstream Aquaculture to create a pure breeding line of golden barramundi.
The plan aims to establish state-of-the-art RAS hatcheries in Scotland that are more water and feed efficient.
The company signed a multi-year agreement with Pure Salmon to supply Atlantic salmon ova to their projects worldwide and continuous product development and R&D.
The hatchery will have a production capacity of 70 million fingerlings, which makes it the largest in the Middle East and North Africa region.
