Final Report SRDC Project BS98S Factors Affecting the Residual Value of Lime
(1996)Project was initiated to determine the relative significance of soil acidity and soil calcium status for predicting response of sugarcane to lime in southern Queensland, where recommendations developed for tropical soils ... -
Final report SRDC project BSS197 : Products and mechanisms for the amelioration of sodic soils
(2005)This project set out to examine a number of issues associated with sodic soils. These included: 1) the impact of soil sodicity on crop production; 2) the reduction of adverse impacts of soil sodicity through irrigation ... -
Final report SRDC Project CG013 Growers working together to improve water quality in the Herbert Sugar Industry
(2008)The sugarcane area of the Herbert River district is located adjacent to the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). The quality of water entering the GBR lagoon from the Herbert district is one of the most important environmental issues ... -
Final report SRDC Project CLW009 Improving yield and ccs in sugarcane through the application of silicon based amendments
(2003)Under high leaching environments common to the wet tropics, soils undergo significant weathering, which, when combined with accelerated chemical and physical degradation due to soil perturbation and crop removal, results ... -
Final report SRDC Project CSR024 Improving the environment for sugarcane growth through the amelioration of soil acidity
(2002)Most soils used for growing sugarcane in wet tropical northern Queensland are highly acidic. Comparisons between new cane land and land that has been growing sugarcane for many years have demonstrated that our soils have ... -
Final report SRDC project GGIP050 Improving soybean and nitrogen management in subtropical NSW cane systems
(2012)This project aimed to document nitrogen inputs from soybean crops grown in NSW cane lands, promote soil-specific fertiliser recommendations following soybean to achieve more efficient use of nitrogen fertiliser and to ... -
Final report Sugar Research and Development Corporation Preparation of a CD Rom library of plant-parasitic nematodes
(2003)Plant parasitic nematodes are of considerable importance to all cropping industries within Australia. Losses caused by plant parasitic nematodes currently recorded in Australia is estimated at between $300 to 450 million. ... -
Final report to the Sugar Research and Development Corporation CTA007 A modelling framework to integrate research on nitrogen management of sugarcane
(1996)This project used a measurement and modelling approach to explore the processes controlling nitrogen supply and losses in the crop and soil elements of sugarcane production systems. Measurements took place both in the field ... -
Fine mapping of major rust resistance gene in cultivar R570 with a view towards it closing through map-bases chromosome walking
(1999)A major gene for rust resistance has been identified in cultivar R570 (Daugrois et ai, 19%). Rust disease is caused by the fungus Puccinia malenocephala Syd P. Syd and is distributed worldwide. Inheritance of resistance ... -
Finite element and durability modelling of roller shells and shafts : final report JCU6S
(BSES, 1998)The technology that has been adopted by the Australian raw sugar industry for roller shells and shafts has evolved over the past 40 years. Apart from Crawford's theoretical calculations on shell design and Cullen's factory ... -
Flocculation and sedimentation of slow settling mud and mud cake conditioning : final report 2012/056
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2015)The project aimed to improve the flocculation and sedimentation of slow settling mud, and reduce the pol/moisture content of mill mud by: Identifying key parameters which are associated with difficult to clarify soils; ... -
Functional genomics for enhanced sugar accumulation in sugarcane : final report CPI002
(2003)Improvement in CCS of sugarcane would provide considerable benefits to the whole sugar industry by improving profitability via enhanced efficiencies in both sugarcane and raw sugar production. Improvements in CCS bring ... -
Further characterisation of pathogenicity genes from Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli, causal organism of ratoon stunting disease : SRDC final project report BSS203
(BSES, 2002)In a previous SRDC/CRCTPP/BSES-funded project, a gene from the sugarcane pathogen Leifsonia xyli subsp. xyli (Lxx) was tagged by transposon mutagenesis, cloned and sequenced, and, based on DNA homology searches, was found ... -
Generation Next Forum : Townsville evaluation report
(2006)The Generation Next Forum resulted in approximately fifty young people from all sectors of the Australian Sugar Industry identifying practical commitments they could contribute to the future of the industry. The Generation ... -
Genetic control and genomic selection for important traits in sugarcane, and comparison of elite Indian and Australian germplasm : final report AISRF/48454
(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 2019) -
Genetic diversity among populations of soldier flies : ASSCT poster paper
(ASSCT, 2019)Soldier flies are a serious pest in several regions of the industry. Because they were often considered a localised problem, their impact has largely gone unrecognised. However, in recent years there has been a concerted ... -
Genomic organisation of sugarcane cultivars revealed by chromosome-specific oligonucleotide probes : ASSCT peer-reviewed paper
(ASSCT, 2021)Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is probably the crop with the most complex genome. Modern cultivars (2n=100-120) are derived from interspecific hybridization between the noble cane S. officinarum (2n=80) and the wild cane S. ... -
Genotype selection and management strategies for exploitation of responses to high planting densities : SRDC final report BS137S
(1999)The objectives of this project were to: evaluate the potential for high density planting (close row spacings) to increase yields over a range of conditions; assess the genetic potential available to exploit higher planting ... -
Genotype X environment interaction and selection of sugarcane families for the Burdekin River irrigation area : SRDC final report BS57S
(1995)The arable lands being developed for sugarcane production in the Burdekin River Irrigation Area (BRIA) are on markedly different soil types and, as a consequence, may present environmental challenges different to those ... -
Genotype X environment interaction for clones and crosses planted in Southern Queensland and Northern New South Wales : SRDC final report BS15S
(1997)The main aims of this project were to assess whether original seedling families produced for south Queensland would be suitable for the New South Wales sugar industry and to determine whether clones selected at the Bundaberg ...
