| Abstract | This project aimed to progress canegrub-resistant transgenic sugarcane to recommendations for field testing by negotiating IP and research agreements to allow commercial release of transgenic plants, determining the insecticidal performance of current transgenics expressing snowdrop lectin and protease inhibitors, testing additional products for antimetabolic effects on canegrubs and incorporating active ones into the program, and producing additional transgenic lines using snowdrop lectin and protease inhibitors and based on other cultivars. |
