Application of molecular markers to sugarcane breeding
(2006)
The CRC SIIB marker application research aims to develop and evaluate ways to apply DNA markers to Australian sugarcane breeding programs to improve breeding, selection and fast release of high performing cultivars. This ...
Estimates of breeding value of sugarcane clones and their impact on efficient parent management and cross pollination : SRDC final report STU060
(2010)
Sugarcane breeders in Australia use family trials from four regional programs to estimate breeding values of current parents. Genetic gain to the Australian sugarcane industry can be maximised through efficient parent ...
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 ...
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 ...
