To purchase additional instrumentation which will enhance existing experiments such that the rigorous scientific measurement and comparison of the water use efficiency of transgenic and conventional cotton systems can

Provide a one page Summary of your research that is not commercial in confidence, and that can be published on the World Wide Web.

Beneficial insects (generalist predators and parasitoids) occur within cotton agro ecosystems in Australia, but farming systems do not always encourage their survival.

Australian cotton fibre is exported into a dynamic and competitive market and we need to ensure an ever-improving product to meet the demand from spinners.

Wincott – the Women’s Industry Network Cotton – has achieved all the objectives of this project.

A major challenge for the insect pest management is responding to resistance.The spread of resistance 'genes' throughout a population depends upon initital frequencies, dominance, fitness consequences and th

This report outlines the results of surveys conducted by of their

membership and cotton growers from across the production valleys in eastern Australia.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are important symbiotic partners to the majority of land plants. AMF depend on the plant community for photosynthate-derived energy.

I would like to report on CSITC results for the 2nd pilot trial and the benefits to CCAA Classing Facilities to continue in this program.

The key purpose of this Primary Industry Health and Safety Partnership strategic plan is to guide the R&D activities supported by the Farm Health and Safety Joint Research Venture over the next 5 years in

On 21st November, at Narrabri, over forty Workshop participants,

mostly ginners, developed and discussed the following introductory

Best Management Practice for the Australian Cotton Ginning

Allocations of river and groundwater have been traditionally treated separately in Australia and many other parts of the world even though in many regions groundwater and river systems are hydraulically connected.

Eretmocerus hayati was first released in late Oct 2004 and over the next 2.5 years it has since spread has far south as the Sydney Basin, west into the northern NSW cotton production areas and in Qld from the NSW bord

I attended the International Cotton Genomics Initiative meeting in Brazil on 18,19, 20 September, 2006. I replaced Curt Brubaker who, because he had left CSIRO, was unable to attend.

The 13th Australian Cotton Conference in August 2006 provided an excellent 'showcase' to

enhance the outputs from CRDC funded research to the industry. The largest gathering of

I feel that the trip was particularly successful. In my own research I have found that diverse communities of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) actually survive in the cotton cropping soils at Narrabri.

This report is a result of the national extension/education review which was a flagship project of the Co-operative Venture for Capacity Building for Innovation in rural Industries(CVCB).The review sought a range of e
