Development of criteria for draining shallow watertables in the Isis irrigation area
(1993)This project was proposed to the Sugar Research Council because qualitative data suggested a significant problem with waterlogging and salinity in hydromorphic sedimentary soils in the Bundaberg to Maryborough region. ... -
Development of DNA based diagnostic systems for sugarcane pathogens : SRDC final report UQ024
(BSES, 2001)This project developed diagnostic assays for sugarcane pathogens using novel DNA detection technologies associated with the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The bacterium Clavibacter xyli subsp. xyli (Cxx) causing ratoon ... -
Development of techniques to study root systems of sugarcane : SRDC final report BS56S
(1993)The aim of this project, to develop quantitative, cost-effective techniques for assessing the size and extensiveness of root systems in sugarcane, has been achieved. The equipment purchased and subsequently modified, and ... -
Development of transformation cassettes for sugarcane : SRDC final report QT002
(2000)There are currently few gene regulation sequences (promoters/terminators) which have been shown to be effective in sugarcane. At present, the industry standard gene regulatory sequences used for genetic engineering of ... -
Development of value-added products from sugarcane boiler ash : final report 2011/903
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2015)Bagasse fly ash from co-generation plants is often recycled into the sugarcane fields. However, bagasse fly ash contains quartz (naturally accumulated by the cane) that may be re-suspended into respirable-sized particulate ... -
