Improving the Plant breeding selection system for Fiji Disease Resistance : SRDC final report BSS255
(2005)
Fiji leaf gall (FLG) has caused major epidemics in the Australian sugar industry in the past. All new cultivars of sugarcane released in areas affected by FLG should be resistant to the disease. New cultivars have been ...
A sugarcane tissue culture system for mass propagation and transformation : SRDC final report BSS242
(2004)
The core research strategy we conceived was to develop the initial observation of direct
shoot regeneration in sugarcane leaf tissues to a generic and efficient plant production
technology for sugarcane and probably for ...
The environmental basis for clone by environment interaction : SRDC final report BSS76
(2004)
This project attempted to identify environmental factors responsible for genotype-by-environment (GXE) interaction by monitoring environmental parameters and relating these to growth responses of test clones. It also sought ...
Optimisation of experimental design and analysis for variety trials to maximise genetic gain : SRDC final report UQ023
(2001)
The analysis of field experimental data usually assumes independent observations. This method is often inappropriate if the data contain strong spatial trends. Methods of analysis (commonly used in cereal trials) which ...
Environmental stimuli for sugarcane suckering in the wet tropics : SRDC final report BSS221
(2003)
The northern section of the industry has been in crisis for most of the years in the decade up to 2002 because of declining CCS. This decline has been due to increased extraneous matter levels due largely to increased ...
Maximising whole-of-industry benefits from the Australian sugarcane improvement program through an optimal genetic evaluation system
(2007)
An optimal genetic evaluation system (GES) is the backbone of any breeding program because maximising genetic gains is primarily a matter of efficient selection. A GES provides information to breeders about which individuals ...
Analysis of sugarcane productivity trends in the wet tropics at a district level : SRDC final report
(2001)
This project provided an in-depth re-analysis of district level data for cane yield, sugar content, and sugar content per hectare for the mill districts of Mulgrave, Babinda, and Tully and an evaluation of the estimates ...
Duplication of photoperiodic initiation facility at BSES : SRDC Final report BSS218
(2000)
Partnership-funded research by SRDC and BSES has resulted in excellent flowering being obtainable in populations of parental sugarcanes that flowered reluctantly, or never, under natural conditions at BSES Meringa. This ...
