Identification of canegrub-resistant transgenic sugarcane lines for commercial evaluation : SRDC final report BSS237
(2004)
This project aimed to progress canegrub-resistant transgenic sugarcane to recommendations for field testing by negotiating IP and research agreements to allow commercial release of transgenic plants, determining the ...
Development and application of spatial analysis to improve precision in selection trials : SRDC final report BSS231
(2004)
In the early stages of selection, a sugarcane breeder tests a large number of genotypes. As the amount of planting material for each genotype for testing is typically limited, selections are usually made on small, ...
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 ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
