(CSIRO Plant Industry, 2005-06-30)Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum (Fov), is a destructive disease of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L) in almost all cotton producing countries of the world. First reported in 1993, this disease ...
-
(CSIRO Plant Industry, 2005-06-30)The performance of the first generation of transgenic (INGARD) plants released in Australia since 1996 was disappointing at a commercial level, despite the considerable reduction in pesticide usage required to grow the ...
-
(CSIRO Plant Industry, 2005-06-30)Genomic technologies are set to revolutionise plant biology and we have already seen significant advances in the rate of gene discovery and new ideas engendered by the sequencing of genomes from two model plants, Arabidopsis ...
-
(CSIRO Plant Industry, 2005-06-30)This project aimed to investigate the expression and function of a number of genes that we believed were involved in the production of the secondary chemical gossypol in cotton. One of the key enzymes in cotton terpene ...
-
(2005-06-30)Electrical resistivity imaging has been validated as a technique that can show the two dimensional movement of water through the soil profile after the application of irrigation water. Water movement can be inferred ...

(Queensland Department of Primary Industriesu, 2005-06-30)At a July 2004 meeting of the CHCG&IA Research and Technical Subcommittee it was resolved that DPI&F research staff develop a strategy to meet the regional R&D needs of the Emerald area, as identified in a discussion paper ...
-
(Queensland Department of Primary Industriesu, 2005-06-30)The primary purpose of DAQ 122C was to investigate alternative pest management options under central Queensland conditions with a view to supporting and expanding the role of area wide management. The project accomplished ...
-
(Queensland Department of Primary Industriesu, 2005-06-30)Heliothine caterpillars and silverleaf whitefly (SLW) are the major pests of field crops in central Queensland (CQ). Helicoverpa has been the primary focus of cotton insect pest managmenet since the inception of the CQ ...

(NSW Department of Primary Industries, 2005-06-30)Cotton R&D Corporation funds for the project entitled ‘Operational Costs for Cotton Experiments’ were used to fund cotton experimental trials at the Australian Cotton Research Institute (ACRI). The management of cotton ...
-
(Universityu of Queensland, 2005-06-30)Ultra-narrow row (UNR) cotton, a production system with rows spaced less than 40cm apart, has been proposed as the ideal system for earlier maturity without substantial yield loss. However, trials in the USA and Australia ...
-
(CSIRO Plant Industry, 2005-06-30)This project has part funded field operation costs charged by DPI to CSIRO for experiments on ACRI at Narrabri. More than 21 projects have been supported over the three years and all field operations have been done well ...
-
(CSIRO Entomology, 2005-06-30)This project validated and enhanced the use of the BDI as a measure of the relative disruption (‘softness’/’hardness’) of the insecticide regimes applied to cotton fields. The project focused on two Area-Wide Management ...
-
(Queensland Department of Primary Industries, 2005-06-30)Growers whose water supply is critically low and are experimenting with novel ways to grow cotton with this limited water. These include irrigated skip-row techniques which are showing promise following a number of successful ...
-
(NSW Department of Primary Industries, 2005-06-30)The effects of rotation crops and stubble management (including the residual effects of past rotation crops) on soil quality, carbon sequestration, deep drainage, nutrient leaching, yield and profitability of succeeding ...
-
(University of Sydney, 2005-06-30)In eastern Australia, Vettosols are widely utilised for the production of irrigated cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) due to their inherent fertility and large water-holding capacity. However, irrigated agriculture in eastern ...
