| dc.description | Since 2008 Pacific Oyster Mortality Syndrome (POMS) has emerged as a significant threat to the Pacific oyster industry globally. The disease was first detected in Australia and New Zealand in 2010. The Australian industry is located in three states: New South Wales (NSW), Tasmania and South Australia, which produce up to 10 500 tonnes per year of Pacific oysters, Magallana gigas (previously classified as Crassostrea gigas). Hundreds of growers operate across the three states, using hatchery-reared spat as the basis for their production. | |
