• Develop an optimal methodology for largemouth bass (LMB) muscle hydrolysis using digestive enzymes representing LMB digestive tract
• Evaluate the effect of LMB muscle protein hydrolysate used as first feed on the growth and survival of LMB larvae
• Provide feed/additive manufacturing industry with knowledge and tools required for production of high-quality, cost effective, and well-digested dietary muscle hydrolysate as a source of protein in larval fish feeds

The objectives of this project are to:

• Describe the longitudinal distribution of adult and larval zebra mussels in streams owing from colonized lakes.
• Test mechanisms contributing to the apparent “settlement bottleneck” for zebra mussels in streams.
• Test whether predators may influence the invasibility of streams by zebra mussels.
• Measure responses of other aquatic biota to the presence of zebra mussels in lake-outflow environments.

The objectives of this project are to:

• Develop a growth curve for yellow perch fed purified and practical diets.
• Evaluate the effects of dietary lipids on growth, feed efficiency, and nutritional composition of fillets.
• Provide an indication of the essential fatty acid needs of yellow perch.

• Investigate the application of extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic (EM) radiation as an effective method for the control of zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha)
• Monitoring the survival of zebra mussels in water which has been irradiated by an ELF EM field via the
  efflux of the metal ions Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+ and K+ from zebra mussels exposed to the field
• Developing quantitative mathematical models will to interpret the experimental findings
