Review of moth-borer resistance screening and report on visit to SASRI
(BSES, 2009)
Information on procedures for screening sugarcane varieties for resistance to moth borers and associated research was obtained by a search of literature and by a 2-week visit to SASRI
Development and implementation of NIR based predictive tools to rate sugarcane varieties against smut and Fiji Leaf Gall : SRDC final report BSS307
(BSES, 2012)
This project will take existing research outcomes and use them to develop and implement new predictive tools for varietal selection against smut and Fiji leaf gall. These tools will improve the delivery of resistant varieties ...
Assessment of various food constituents as feeding attractants for canegrubs in a pest control program : SRDC final report BS35S
(BSES, 1991)
Cellulose acetate filter disks were used to evaluate sugars, amino acids and ascorbic acid as feeding stimulants for canegrubs. Fourteen sugars, 18 amino acids and ascorbic acid were tested with third instars of Antitrogus ...

The production and evaluation of gene probes for diagnosis of sugarcane mosaic virus and Fiji disease virus (Final report SRDC Project BS10S)
(BSES, 1991)
Specific and sensitive cDNA probes have been developed for detection of both FDV and SCMV in diseased sugarcane plants. Results from glasshouse evaluation indicate that FDV probes are not sensitive enough to be used for ...
Impact of nutgrass on sugarcane yield
(BSES, 2011)
Research carried out in Mackay over 2009-2010 in plant cane confirmed the impact of nutgrass competition on sugarcane yield and profitability. Trials were conducted on both dryland and irrigated sites, with similar yield ...
Technical assessment of survival of smut spores in bales of sugarcane trash
(BSES, 2008)
This assessment considers the survival of smut spores in relation to the proposal to store baled trash until there was a low risk of viable spores being present.
