The oyster industries require ongoing research and development for new innovations and future prosperity, and at present this is crucial for POMS (OsHV-1). However, the outcomes from research can be hard to predict, and the time required to make breakthrough developments is never certain. This can cause confusion for industry in a time of crisis. Therefore the research team has led discussions within the research community to produce a consensus statement on research progress, which can be downloaded by clicking the link below.
This statement was produced by research leaders from each of the major Australian research projects and will be updated as new information comes to hand.
