Peat was historically mined overseas because it burns so well. But Australia’s subtropical peat bogs need fire to survive https://t.co/X5sWLvu1h9 via @ConversationEDU

@123jillwalker I'll get working on it! 👩‍🔬

@123jillwalker We use the term "monosex" instead of "all-male" because the same technology is used to produce "all-female" poopulations, which are less aggressive and have a higher breeding capacity.

@123jillwalker @CBioinnovation @TomerVentura @usceduau @IJMS_MDPI All-male (mono-sex) crayfish populations grow bigger and faster than mixed populations! Males also have a higher market value, so farming all-male populations means more money for farmers.

On track to produce monosex red claw populations for aquaculture and conservation! Read all about transcriptomics to do with reproduction https://t.co/ODkMat2mn9 @IJMS_MDPI
