Demand for Australian seafood outstrips supply. Farming of the iconic Australian barramundi is poised to play a major role addressing this shortfall; but innovative methods are needed to de-risk breeding processes and to provide precise control of maturation, spawning and genetic contribution of broodstock. This project, in partnership with the world’s largest barramundi breeding company, will develop, test and apply novel breeding methods to obtain tight control over barramundi reproductive development and spawning. By combining cutting-edge genetic and applied breeding techniques, selective breeding programs will be more efficient and the genetic gains from breeding programs will be maximised.

澳大利亚海鲜供不应求。澳大利亚标志性物种barramundi的养殖将在解决这一不足方面发挥重要作用；但需要创新的方法来降低繁殖过程的风险，并对亲鱼的成熟、产卵和遗传贡献进行精确控制。该项目与世界上最大的Barramundi育种公司合作，将开发、测试和应用新的育种方法，以获得对Barramundi生殖发育和产卵的严格控制。通过将尖端遗传和应用育种技术相结合，选择性育种计划将更加有效，育种计划的遗传收益将最大化。
