| Abstract | The BSES-CSIRO sugarcane improvement joint venture was successful in obtaining the funding for work towards the development of productive, smut-resistant varieties in a project called SmutBuster. The SRDC-BSES research agreement for the SmutBuster project includes a requirement to review the breeding strategy for smut resistance. In January 2009, BSES commissioned Professor Jeff Hoy, Louisiana State University, Professor Bob McIntosh, University of Sydney, and Dr Mac Hogarth, formerly with BSES and SRDC, to conduct the review. |
