Aquaculture impact on wild marine populations

Expansion of marine farming sites raised the concern that aquaculture may pose a threat to biodiversity due to the potentialy adverse impacts on wild populations and ecosystem. To better understand the complexity of aquaculture impacts on the native populations, this project will take advantage of cutting edge instrumental and genetic approaches to support aquaculture activity and management, as well as the protection of marine environment.
