Abstract:
This study assessed links between host fitness, environmental change and opportunistic parasite infections in a dynamic estuary system. The Hawkesbury River in New South Wales is the most recent Sydney rock oyster growing area to experience outbreaks of infectious QX disease. This area was used to examine a relationship between the intensity of QX disease and inhibition of the oyster immune system. Oysters were grown at various sites along the river and periodically monitored for general condition, total haemolymph protein content, antibacterial capacity and phenoloxidase activity. Phenoloxida

Abstract:
Adult Sydney rock oysters (Saccostrea commercialis) and Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas) were kept on commercial oyster leases at three intertidal sites in Port Stephens, New South Wales, and subtidally under an experimental raft at a fourth site between July 1988 and September 1989. Oysters were sampled from each site at approximately monthly intervals for chemical and histological analysis. Condition index and percentage glycogen of Pacific oysters were higher than those of Sydney rock oysters during winter and spring but tended to be lower during summer and autumn.

Abstract:
Tributyltin (TBT) concentrations have been measured in the tissue of the Sydney rock oyster Saccostrea commercialis sampled from estuaries in New South Wales, Australia. Background TBT levels of below 2 ng Sn g-1 contrasted with values between 80 and 130 ng Sn g-1 in oysters exposed to high boat densities or poor tidal flushing. Shell deformities and reduced tissue weights were associated with all samples displaying elevated TBT levels. Specimens of the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, growing on the same racks displayed 2-3 times the TBT concentrations of S. commercialis.

Abstract:
An indirect fluorescent antibody test (IFAT) was developed to test for mature and immature stages of Marteilia sydneyi in the digestive gland of the Sydney rock oyster, Saccostrea commercialis. Immunogold labelling of sections for electron microscopy showed that the sporont membrane, refringent granules, spore wall and haplosporosomes were particularly antigenic. The antibody did not react with any myxosporidean parasite found in local fish. Large numbers of sporonts were shed by infected oysters before oyster death. Lightly infected oysters were apparently able to shed all of their parasites

Abstract:
This study tested the proteomic responses of three spatially distinct Sydney rock oyster populations to elevated pCO2. Oysters were collected from environmentally different sites, two chronically affected by acid sulfate soil. Oysters from each of the three populations were exposed to ambient (380µatm) or elevated (856 and 1500µatm) pCO2 for 4 weeks. Subsequent proteomic analysis from haemolymph revealed that (1) there were differences between the proteomes of the three populations after exposure to ambient pCO2, and (2) the different oyster populations mounted significantly different response

Abstract:
With urbanisation, there is an increasing trend for artificial structures, such as seawalls, to replace natural habitats. The predatory mulberry whelk, Morula marginalba Blainville, is seldom observed on seawalls in Sydney Harbour, yet it is abundant on the rocky shores of south-eastern Australia. The Sydney rock oyster, Saccostrea glomerata Gould, is common on seawalls in Sydney Harbour, forming two types of crust, providing ‘elaborate’ or ‘simple’ habitats that differ in structure. Whelks were numerous on some seawalls with elaborate oyster crusts, but were sparse on walls with simple crusts

Abstract:
Estimates of the ecological and economic value of ecosystems can provide important information for the prioritisation of conservation and restoration actions. Oyster reefs that were once common in temperate coastal waters have now been largely degraded or lost. Oyster reefs provide a suite of ecological services, including habitat and a food supply for a range of other species. In Australia, there is growing interest in oyster reef restoration, but there are knowledge gaps with regard to their structure and habitat value. Here, we describe the structure of eight remnant Sydney rock oyster (Sac

This research honours the Baludarri (Sydney Rock Oyster). It is interdisciplinary in its approach and showcases the work of Australian born artist, Sarah Jane Moore. It presents key findings from an artistic residency at UNSW in Sydney, Australia, through the modalities of image, song and text. It highlights the importance of the humble oyster and maps an art-meets-science approach where Moore’s creative thinking seeks inspiration from her relationship with the work of an Indigenous scientist, Laura Parker.

Proliferation of species introduced for aquaculture can threaten the ecological and economic integrity of ecosystems.

This thesis provides the first comprehensive assessment of the economic viability of Australia's Sydney rock oyster industry and forms the bases for future policy and industry management recommendations. In the four separate studies of the thesis, the socio-economic profile of the industry, the market price formation dynamics within Australia's oyster market, efficiency and productivity levels and the potential impact of climate change and market dynamics on the industry's future revenue were investigated. Findings of this project suggest, for example, that market dynamics may pose a greater t

Estuarine acidification, caused by disturbance of acid sulfate soils (ASS), is a recurrent problem in eastern Australia. Affected waters are characterised by low pH and elevated concentrations of metals, principally aluminium and iron. The effects of acid and elevated metal concentrations associated with ASS, on adult Sydney rock oysters, have not been previously investigated. This study tested links between ASS-affected drainage, subsequent estuarine acidification and Sydney rock oyster production problems on the Hastings and Manning Rivers, mid north coast New South Wales.

Genetic variation is the resource animal breeders exploit in stock improvement programs. Both the process of selection and husbandry practices employed in aquaculture will erode genetic variation levels overtime, hence the critical resource can be lost and this may compromise future genetic gains in breeding programs. The amount of genetic variation in five lines of Sydney Rock Oyster (SRO) that had been selected for QX (Queensland unknown) disease resistance were examined and compared with that in a wild reference population using seven specific SRO microsatellite loci.

There has been a continuous decline in both the production and general performance of the SRO in NSW estuaries over the past three decades. The relationship of this decline to both environmental and oyster-density related factors are assessed in this thesis. This question has been examined at different scales: a large scale that compares two different estuaries (Clyde and Shoalhaven Rivers, southern NSW); a regional scale that encompasses variations within an estuary and, at a lease scale that examines processes pertaining to individual or small groups of oysters.

Mortality of triploids was significantly lower (p < 0.01) or not significantly different @ > 0.05) from that of diploids at 12 of the 13 sites.
