Funded Activity Summary

Objectives:
1. To determine the potential of gene transfer as a method of tagging prawns.
2. To determine whether transposable elements exist in the prawn genome
3. To establish a method of genetic transformation in penaeid prawns
4. To determine whether trace elements accumulated by juvenile prawns remain distinguishable in offshore adult populations
5. To determine the uptake and residence time of selected trace elements in prawn tissues
6. To determine which body tissues of prawns best conserve the selected trace elements
