Production of an automated cane billet sampler for research trials : SRDC final report BSS156
(2000)
Sugarcane breeding and research programs currently rely on hand-cut sound whole-stalk samples for determination of commercial cane sugar (CCS) and other quality components. These samples of sugarcane are free from extraneous ...
Transformation of sugarcane using Agrobacterium tumefaciens : final report on CTA027
(2000)
A method for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of sugarcane tissues has been developed in this project. This method offers an alternative technique for the introduction of transgenes into sugarcane. In general, ...
Introgression of new genes from Saccharum officinarum
(SRDC, 2004)
Modern sugarcane cultivars are derived from two main ancestral species: Saccharum officinarum, which is the main source of high sucrose levels, and S. spontaneum. Only a small number of clones of either species have ever ...
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 ...
Validation of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in sugarcane ESTs as useful genetic markers : SRDC final report ICB010
(2004)
Sugarcane is one of the most important field crops grown in the tropics and subtropics. It possesses a highly complex genome, with multiple copies of a single gene present. Breeding of improved cultivars of sugarcane is ...
Development of transformation cassettes for sugarcane : SRDC final report QT002
(2000)
There are currently few gene regulation sequences (promoters/terminators) which have been shown to be effective in sugarcane. At present, the industry standard gene regulatory sequences used for genetic engineering of ...
Perfect markers for sugarcane mapping
(2001)
Sugarcane is a complex aneuploid, polyploid, interspecific hybrid. Most breeding traits are complex and molecular markers associated with these traits are a tool that may assist breeders to more efficiently identify sugarcane ...
Manual of procedures for the control of BSES Limited varieties: variety audit, DNA fingerprinting and plant breeder's rights
(2004)
Plant Breeders' Rights (PBR) is designed to protect industry investment in Plant breeding. Currently it protects the equity of growers and millers continuing to support plant improvement through the 'Service Fee'. However, ...
Evaluation and re-structuring of regional selection programs to maximise efficiency and speed of cultivar release
(2002)
Continual delivery of new cultivars is required to maintain resistance to existing and new pests and diseases, and to provide constant improvement in crop productivity, quality and profitability for an internationally ...
Australian component Genetic diversity within Sugarcane yellow leaf virus : ICSB final report 99-15
(2001)
Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) is widespread in many sugarcane growing countries of the world. The aim of this study was to determine the extent of genomic variation in SCYLV isolates from various countries. Isolates ...
