    Herbicide efficacy screen North Queensland 1986 season
    (BSES, 1987) Williams, RC
    In 1984 a wide range of herbicide treatments were evaluated against a number of weed species. Results demonstrated the weakness and strengths of various products, and the optimum timing of application. To further improve the knowledge of currently registered herbicides and of those which may have some potential for use in cane, another series of trials were laid down in 1986.

    The production and evaluation of gene probes for diagnosis of sugarcane mosaic virus and Fiji disease virus (Final report SRDC Project BS10S)
    (BSES, 1991) Smith, GR; Leonard, GJ
    Specific and sensitive cDNA probes have been developed for detection of both FDV and SCMV in diseased sugarcane plants. Results from glasshouse evaluation indicate that FDV probes are not sensitive enough to be used for the detection of the virus in asymptomatic diseased plants. Results are not yet available from the SCMV probe glasshouse trial.
