Instrument fibre tests indicate that there is no difference between the fibre from transgenic Bt cotton and non transgenic. However there is assumed concern from the spinning and textile sector.

This project aims to support numerous cotton research projects by enabling the production of experimental crop at ACRI.

The Analysis of cotton production in the Bourke district project will fonn part of a co-funded project to develop a land and water management plan for the Bourke irrigation district.

ks in southern Europe provide a unique opportunity for Australian researchers to learn of the latest developments in entomology, Bacillus thuringiensis and other insect pathogens, and technology transfer in biological

The aim of this project is to generate and evaluate transgenic cotton plants that are expected to have improved tolerance to fungal disease, in particular Verticillium and Fusarium wilts.
