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, ...
Development of techniques to study root systems of sugarcane : SRDC final report BS56S
(1993)
The aim of this project, to develop quantitative, cost-effective techniques for assessing the size and extensiveness of root systems in sugarcane, has been achieved. The equipment purchased and subsequently modified, and ...
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 ...
Advancing yield, disease resistance and ratooning by exploiting new sources of genetic variability from wild relatives of sugarcane : phase 1
(2017)
This project was originally planned and designed for six years to allow collection of data over 2 or 3 ratoon crops. In this first phase of the project, all propagations and trials were well established and good quality ...
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 ...
Better frost tolerant varieties for NSW : SRDC Grower Group Innovation Project
(2010)
Frost damage to sugarcane crops affects about one third of the NSW cane
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 ...
