Glycogen and Fecundity

  • NIRS technology
  • Oyster Seed Holdings
  • LOLA, DEBY.13, DEBY.14
  • Glycogen at time zero and just prior to conditioning

– Different treatments prior to conditioning

  • Fecundity/egg counts on spawning day

False winter and Dermo

  • Belief that false winter aids in conditioning and “resets”

Dermo if present

  • H° : oysters put through false winter will have lower

prevalence and intensity of Dermo compared to those not put through false winter

Questions about the planning process

What role industry?

  • Determining research capabilities
  • e.g., carbonate chemistry?
  • e.g., conditioning studies?
  • e.g., closed systems?

Research hatchery manager?

  • Oversee facility, part of AQ Program
  • PI for hatchery related research
  • “Journeyman” with experience
  • e.g., Alan Barton

Expertise in design?

  • VA industry?
  • Other sources of expertise
  • Donaldson
  • Meritt
  • Davis

2N Deployment 2016

  • 49 low salinity families

– 25 also deployed in York River*

  • 50 high salinity families

– 15 also deployed in Lewisetta* * some families perform well in both environments

  • long line – York River & Cambridge
  • rack & bag – Lynnhaven & Lewisetta
slide-33
SLIDE 33
  • Hungars Creek

– Cherrystone – 30 families (15 high, 15 low, 2 reps per) – rack and bag – Do ABC families perform differently in the creek environments of the Eastern Shore?

  • loggers in place to measure temp. & salinity
