一.台灣重要養殖魚蝦貝及餌料生物遺傳資源之分析與評估--利用粒線體DNA片斷序列進行泰國蝦遺傳基因分析The objectives of this study is to analyze the genetic variability and structure ofMacrobrachium rosenbergii from selected hatcheries in Taiwan. The results of eachpopulations will be compared and the origin of their home country will be revealed.二.台灣重要養殖魚蝦貝及餌料生物遺傳資源之分析與評估-利用18SrDNA進行海水綠球藻鑑種分析Seed production of cultured aquatic organisms is one of the most important issues forsustainable aquaculture industry in Taiwan. The culture collection center of live food isbuilt up to provide stock cultures and relative technology for farmers and researchers.Ten culture collections of Chlorella had different EPA content in lipid, showed there arenot the same species. It is difficult to identify due to small size (< 5 μm), ovoid shape,without features on cell cover. To determine the relationships among Chlorella spp.strains, the PCR technique to analyze the nuclear-encoded SSU 18S rDNA sequencewill be used. In addition, this study is aimed to establish the technique for phylogeny ofmicroalgae culture collection三.何氏棘( Spinibarbus hollandi)微衛星DNA專一性特定列位點(STS)之建立Conservation of aquaculture or characteristic fish requires knowledge of geneticvariation within and between breeds. Genetic marker are molecular labels which identifygenes and are valuable to the animal industry as tools of animal selection. In this study,the RAPD and Microsatellite DNA techniques will chose for identify the geneticrelationship within and among different populations for Spinibarbus spp.四.台灣重要經濟水產生物粒線體DNA核苷酸序列資料庫之建立The purpose of this project is to establish the database of nucleotide sequences ofcytochrome b gene in mitochondrial DNA for important aquatic species in Taiwan.Those data can be used as a standard sequence in species identification for fisheryresources management, trading and conserving of aquatic species; and offered for studiesof biology diversity.The purpose of this year is to establish the database of nucleotidesequences of cytochrome b gene in mitochondrial DNA for important aquaculture fishesin Taiwan.五.九孔外部形質與其成長、活存關係調查研究In this study, small abalone samples are collected from culture regions around Taiwanarea during the cultivation period. Body weight, shell length, shell width, shell height,shell weight, flesh weight, shell volume, and pore number of live samples will bemeasured individually. On the other hand, a part of the sample from different regionswill be cultured and fed with three spices' of red algae to brood stock for further artificialpropagation study. In nursery pond, the larvae will be inspected and recorded undermicroscope. The results of this study may provide information about the presentsituation of small abalone production and help the farmers to raise and select broodstocks for successful seed propagation.
