正文(英文) | Vaccines made using algae are being developed to protect fish from disease and help protect the UK's aquaculture industry. The project is one of 12 to receive a total of £5·1 million to fund further research to address challenges for aquaculture. Other projects include studying genetics and breeding patterns, looking at how shellfish can be more sustainable, immunising trout against kidney disease, and examining how robust salmon are and how susceptible to disease they are at sea. The UK Aquaculture Initiative is a joint Biotechnology & Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC) and NERC project to support high-quality, innovative research and address strategic challenges facing UK aquaculture. This investment represents a total of £5·1 million, along with contributions from co-funders the Agri-Food & Biosciences Institute (AFBI) and the Centre for Environments, Fisheries & Aquaculture Science (CEFAS), and a range of industry partners who will collaborate with academic researchers on the projects. Karen Lewis, BBSRC Executive Director, Capability & Innovation, said:
The 12 new projects are:

Our work covers the full range of atmospheric, Earth, biological, terrestrial and aquatic science, from the deep oceans to the upper atmosphere and from the poles to the equator. We coordinate some of the world's most exciting research projects tackling major environmental issues. NERC is part of UK Research & Innovation, a non-departmental public body funded by a grant-in-aid from the UK government. |
