Abstract

Oysters (Saccostrea commercialis) in subtropical southern Queensland estuaries are affected by seasonal epizootics of QX disease (Marteilia sydneyi), which restrict both the growing season and the types of operations that can be conducted by oyster farmers. Tray cultivation is a technique used in these circumstances.
