Their recent publications show a focus on aquatic biology and genetic studies related to fish species, particularly barramundi (Lates calcarifer). Notable papers include:

  • "Predicted strong genetic gains from the application of genomic selection to improve growth related traits in barramundi (Lates calcarifer)", 2021, Aquaculture
  • "High Growth Rate of Diatoms Explained by Reduced Carbon Requirement and Low Energy Cost of Silica Deposition", 2023, Microbiology Spectrum
  • "The skin structure in multiple color variants of barramundi (Lates calcarifer): A histological, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural overview", 2023, Aquaculture
  • "Correlation between DNA Methylation and Transcriptomic Changes in Golden Barramundi (Lates Calcarifer): An Integrated Approach", 2024, SSRN Electronic Journal
  • "Correlation between DNA Methylation and Transcriptomic Changes in Golden Asian Sea Bass (Lates Calcarifer) an Integrated Approach", 2025, SSRN Electronic Journal

Paul J. Harrison frequently collaborates with other researchers in their field. Regular co-authors include David B. Jones, Cécile Massault, Holly S. Cate, Roberta Marcoli, and Dean R. Jerry, with multiple joint publications among these collaborators.

The majority of Harrison's publications appear in the journals Aquaculture and SSRN Electronic Journal, with additional works published in Microbiology Spectrum. The research spans genetic, ecological, and biochemical aspects of aquatic species, reflecting a multidisciplinary approach to understanding fish biology and associated ecosystems.
