摘　　要：Off-flavour taint of aquaculture products is a global issue reducing consumer confidence in the farmed produce as they are taken up via the gills of fish,and deposited in the lipids of the animal.If the fish are not purged,resulting undesirable muddy earthy flavour taint can be tasted by consumers.These undesirable flavour and odour is caused by the terpenoid compounds namely geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol,produced as secondary metabolites by certain bacteria including the cyanobacteria and actinomycetes.Current strategies to remediate the problem rely on treating the symptoms not the cause and involve the use of time consuming purging methods and costly chemicals.Biological control using bacteriophages,specific to the problem causing bacteria,offers a natural alternative to chemical control,which might reduce further complications of copper based algaecides and its subsequent implications on water quality.In an adaptation of such biological control approach streptomycetes isolated from barramundi ponds were tested for their susceptibility to streptophages to understand whether host destruction via phage lysis would subsequently eliminate off-flavour taint productions by these isolates.Following the determination of the streptophage susceptibility of the isolates one of the most odourous streptomycete species(USC-14510)was selected to be tested further using different pond simulations resembling real-life applications.Geosmin was tested as the indicator of off-flavour taint production and as it has been previously reported that the cyanobacteria-actinomycete interactions occurring in ponds result in even greater levels of geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol,the geosmin levels for the isolate in the presence of cyanobacteria and streptophages were also tested.Findings indicated that the highly odourous Streptomyces species(USC-14510)once infected with streptophages,can lose its capacity to produce off-flavour taints.Pond simulation studies also revealed geosmin production was significantly reduced when streptophages we
