The Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded a $299,902 Project Grant to the Hubbs-Sea World Research Institute (HSWRI) under the Fisheries Development and Utilization Research and Development Grants and Cooperative Agreements Program (CFDA 11.427). The goal of this 2-year project is to quantify hatchery contribution to the white seabass fishery in Southern California and Baja California, Mexico through genetic tagging. The project will analyze 400 genetic samples per fishery per year, with approximately half being aged, to understand patterns of hatchery contribution across year classes. Additionally, the project will investigate potential discrepancies between coded wire tag (CWT) and genetic tag assignment by X-raying heads of collected white seabass. A third approach using stable isotope analysis of otolith core regions will be undertaken to further understand any inconsistencies between the two previous methods. HSWRI, a non-profit marine research organization, has previously received federal funding from NOAA to support research and data collection services related to marine mammals, fisheries, and aquaculture.
