Constructing a Model to Investigate Rhizopheric Competent Microorganism Interactions and Peptide Secretions

Crane, Nathaniel (Queensland University Of Technology (QUT), )

Verticillium dahliae is a highly destructive fungal pathogen that causes an annual global product loss in cotton of 20%.

Soil impacts on the incidence and evaluation of Fusarium wilt

Moulynox, Jason

Cotton production is an important rural industry in Australia. Disease pressure from emerging pathogens such as Thielaviopsis basicola threatens to reduce production.

Postgraduate: Jennifer Whan - investigation of the effects of Silicon application on the resistance of cotton to Fusarium oxysporum f.s.p. vasinfectum

Whan, Jennifer (University Of Queensland, )

A project investigating the molecular and histological effects of silicon application on cotton infected with Fov was inspired by promising preliminary results obtained by Dr Linda Smith (QPl&F) in glasshouse and
