To provide a fundamental biological basis for future germplasm improvement and exploitation of jade perch, biological characteristics of jade perch, including propagation, morphological and genetic characters were analyzed in this study. Jade perch becomes sexually mature at four-year-old. Zygotes of jade perch are transparent, buoyant, and swell upon absorption of water to up to 2.1±0.3mm in diameter. At a water temperature of 27.5±2°C, zygoteshatched 21-26h after fertilization. Comparison of morphological characters between two- and six-month-old jade perch revealed that the proportion of the head with respect to the body decreased significantly (P<0.05), while the proportion of abdominal fat deposits increased significantly (P<0.05). Chromosome number of jade perch is 48, karyo type is 2sm + 2m+ 44t, and relativeKeywords: DNA Jade content perch; is 168.27±13.91,Embryonic development; which is significantly Morphological lower characters; than that ofGenetic another characters; bass species, Gonadal largemouth development bass (194.55±15.85) (P<0.05).

International Seafood seafood supply chains are complex and contend with many difficulties in bringing an enormous variety of Substitution products to market. A major challenge involves accurately labelling products such that they comply with a BOLD diverse set of regulatory frameworks, ranging from country-of-origin through to the final point of consumer sale. DNA barcoding Thanks to DNA barcoding, seafood mislabelling is now recognized as a global problem, with potentially negative Importer impacts on human health, economy and the environment. Mislabelling can result from species misidentification, Retailer Regulatory framework use of inappropriate common names, incomplete and/or out-dated regulatory frameworks, or through market substitution. While prior studies have focused primarily on retail and food service establishments, this study used barcoding to assess rates of finfish mislabelling at multiple points in the supply chain within Ontario, Canada.A total of 203 specimens from 12 key targeted species were collected from varied importers, registered processing plants and retailers in Southern Ontario and identified using DNA barcoding.

    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect.

The Lake Eyre ZAC was established by the QFMA to provide: a forum for discussion on regional fisheries and fisheries habitat issues; a vital two-way information flow between fisheries mangers and the community.

  • Action Plan for South Australian Freshwater Fishes 2009
    Section 2 Species Recovery Outlines A conservation status reflects a level of extinction risk for a species. In this document, extinction risk relates to the continued survival of the species in South Australia. Status is thus assigned independently of social, management and political implications (status can however, influence these and other factors depending on how such a list is used). The current list of threatened freshwater fishes was instigated by a need to raise awareness of the overall plight of freshwater native fish in South Australia and to enable comparisons across vertebrate groups of the State. The list also provides the basis for developing Recovery Outlines for threatened species which document: • Conservation status – includes South Australia Action Plan status (criteria are in brackets and match Appendix 4), Protected species (Fisheries Management Act 2007), and other national and interstate listings. • Taxonomy and identification – includes a description of the species and key characters (see Figure 5) for distinguishing between similar species (as a guide only). • Former distribution – description of historic records (i.e. prior to 1990). Note that the historic and current distribution of many species has not been specifically assessed. • Current distribution – records after 1990 summarising documented declines and also listing any habitats where the species may be expected to occur. • Brief overview of species biology and habitat to outline the level of available information for aspects useful for management. • An assessment of potential reasons for species decline and threats. • Land tenure and conservation. • Recovery objectives. • Details of conservation actions already initiated. • Required conservation actions to help meet recovery objectives. • A list of organisations responsible for conservation of the species.
