Laura Torrentera 120 iv Introduction The 40th United States-Japan Natural Resources Panel on Aquaculture Science Symposium and these proceedings are dedicated to the strength and compassion the Japanese people exhibited in the aftermath of the tragic earthquake and tsunami that began at 2:46 pm on March 11, 2011. This meeting was postponed for a year as Japan dealt with the devastating impacts in the aftermath. Let me first extend the condolences of the entire U.S. delegation for the tragic loss of life that resulted. We wish Japan and her people a swift recovery as we dedicate this meeting and proceedings to them. These events and others like them remind us of how uncertain the future is. Though on a much smaller scale, the U.S. has also been dealing with setbacks in its aquaculture sector from uncommon events. Shellfish production in the Gulf of Mexico was still reeling from the impacts of the 2010 Deep Water Horizon oil spill when it was hit by flooding in 2011. Extreme run-off from the Mississippi river lowered salinity enough to kill a large percentage of the recovering shellfish crop. On the U.S. West coast, ocean acidification caused catastrophic die-offs in shellfish hatcheries in the states of Oregon and Washington until it was diagnosed and mitigation measures could be employed. Concurrently, recruitment failures in natural populations of Pacific oysters have been documented over the past seven years; this worrisome phenomenon may also be attributable to ocean acidification. In finfish aquaculture, drought in the agricultural heart of the United States in 2012 raised feed prices for the catfish, trout, and salmon industries. While these events are minor compared to the tsunami and earthquake in Japan, what all these occurrences have in common is that they are largely out of our control. One key role of research is to develop information and technology needed in the future. However, as these events illustrate, predicting the future - much less its information and technology needs, - is a formidable task. Peter F. Drucker, a noted political economist and author (including at least one Japanese anime) is quoted as saying, “The best way to predict the future is to create it.” I think he is mostly right. I think the future has two parts: the part we create and the part that happens to us. Clearly a part of our future is random, but the story of human progress supports the notion that we do exercise some control, which can have a profound impact in guiding our future. If you accept this paradigm, then I argue that the better job we do creating the future, the less we are at the mercy of those parts we cannot control. It is our role as scientists to make the best future we can and to be ready for the part of the future we cannot control. The advances in research and technology we share in these proceedings are great examples of creating our future. Understanding ocean acidification and adaptively managing shellfish hatcheries made it possible to supply oyster seed to farmers in the Pacific Northwest and kept the industry going, despite the failure of natural sets. Even if not explicitly stated, the idea 1 of creating our future through enhanced knowledge is a common thread among the papers in these proceedings. The cutting-edge technologies discussed here are building a future of increased efficiency, sustainability, and species variety in aquaculture. Many people contributed to the success of this meeting and the production of the proceedings. I would like to thank our organizing committee, Cheng Sheng Lee, Alan Everson, and U.S. Vice Chair Paul Olin, and especially the one who did most of the work, April Bagwill. Marie Fujitani, April, and Paul also deserve thanks for co-editing the proceedings, as well as Su Kim for creating the document layout. Michael B.

    ABSTRACT LUCKENBACH, JOHN ADAM. Breeding Biotechnology

    ABSTRACT LUCKENBACH, JOHN ADAM. Breeding Biotechnology, Sex Determination, and Growth in Southern flounder, Paralichthys lethostigma. (Under the direction of Dr. John Godwin and Dr. Russell J. Borski). Southern flounder (Paralichthys lethostigma) support valuable, but declining US fisheries. This species is therefore a strong candidate for aquaculture to mitigate fishing impacts and stabilize seafood supply. Because female flounder reach substantially larger sizes than males, all-female culture is desirable for commercial aquaculture. Hence, a thorough understanding of sexual development, its timing and regulation by temperature is essential for optimization of flounder aquaculture. To better understand ovarian and testicular development in southern flounder, structural and cellular sex-distinguishing markers were studied using histological methods. We found that histologically discernible sex differentiation occurs in southern flounder at ~75-120 mm TL and that early differentiation is considerably delayed relative to its Japanese congener, P. olivaceus. High (28°C) and low (18°C) water temperatures, produced a higher proportion of males (96% and 78% males, respectively). The sex ratio at a mid-range (23°C) temperature was not different from 1:1. This suggests that southern flounder possess a temperature sensitive mechanism of sex determination. Growth was also affected by temperature with the temperature that maximized females inducing better growth. Aromatase cytochrome P450 (P450arom) is responsible for estrogen biosynthesis and plays a critical role in ovarian differentiation. We cloned ovarian P450arom and developed a qRT-PCR for assessment of early sex differentiation. The deduced amino acid sequence for southern flounder P450arom is very similar to P450arom in other teleosts. Comparison of P450arom intron sequences of southern flounder within and between different populations revealed substantial inter-individual variation that may affect sex determination responses.

O. Box 56, 35200 Telde, Canary Islands, Spain Abstract Bone and fins development in Seriola rivoliana were studied from cleared and stained specimens from 3 to 33 days after hatching. The vertebral column began to mineralize in the neural arches at 4.40 ± 0.14 mm Standard Length (SL), continued with the haemal arches and centrums following a cranial-caudal direction. Mineralization of the caudal fin structures started with the caudal rays by 5.12 ± 0.11 mm SL, at the same time that the notochord flexion occurs. The first dorsal and anal fin structures were the hard spines (S), and lepidotrichium (R) by 8.01 ± 0.26 mm SL. The metamorphosis was completed by 11.82 ± 0.4 mm SL. Finally, the fin supports (pterygiophores) and the caudal fins were completely mineralized by 16.1 ± 0.89 mm SL. In addition, the meristic data of 23 structures were provided.

    Do Some Atlantic Bluefin Tuna Skip Spawning?

    SCRS/2006/088 Col. Vol. Sci. Pap. ICCAT, 60(4): 1141-1153 (2007) DO SOME ATLANTIC BLUEFIN TUNA SKIP SPAWNING? David H. Secor1 SUMMARY During the spawning season for Atlantic bluefin tuna, some adults occur outside known spawning centers, suggesting either unknown spawning regions, or fundamental errors in our current understanding of bluefin tuna reproductive schedules. Based upon recent scientific perspectives, skipped spawning (delayed maturation and non-annual spawning) is possibly prevalent in moderately long-lived marine species like bluefin tuna. In principle, skipped spawning represents a trade-off between current and future reproduction. By foregoing reproduction, an individual can incur survival and growth benefits that accrue in deferred reproduction. Across a range of species, skipped reproduction was positively correlated with longevity, but for non-sturgeon species, adults spawned at intervals at least once every two years. A range of types of skipped spawning (constant, younger, older, event skipping; and delays in first maturation) was modeled for the western Atlantic bluefin tuna population to test for their effects on the egg-production-per-recruit biological reference point (stipulated at 20% and 40%). With the exception of extreme delays in maturation, skipped spawning had relatively small effect in depressing fishing mortality (F) threshold values. This was particularly true in comparison to scenarios of a juvenile fishery (ages 4-7), which substantially depressed threshold F values. Indeed, recent F estimates for 1990-2002 western Atlantic bluefin tuna stock assessments were in excess of threshold F values when juvenile size classes were exploited. If western bluefin tuna are currently maturing at an older age than is currently assessed (i.e., 10 v.
