Rochester, Ian (CSIRO Plant Industry, 2004-06-30)
This project aimed to identify factors that could substantially influence Bt efficacy in transgenic cotton. Cry1Ac protein concentration in cotton leaves was measured quantitatively using a commercial ELISA assay.
Kochman, Joe (Queensland Department Of Primary Industries, 2004-06-30)
Fusarium wilt is considered by many growers, ginners, consultants and other industry personnel as the most important constraint to sustainable cotton production to have developed in recent years.
Bodapati, Naidu (Department Of Natural Resources And Mines, 2004-06-30)
The current project was devised in the knowledge that increased sodicity and salinity of percolating water will alter the saturated conductivity of many soils, especially sodic soils.
Cottage, Emma Cottage (NSW Department Of Primary Industries, 2004-06-30)
Since the first reported control failures at Emerald during the 1998-99 cotton season, insecticide resistance in cotton aphid, has emerged as a significant threat to the Australian cotton industry.

Salinisation as a consequence of irrigation can occur as a result of the application of poor quality (i.e. saline) water or mobilisation of salts from rising water tables (i.e.
McFadden, Helen (CSIRO Plant Industry, 2004-06-30)
Fusarium wilt disease has the potential to cause significant yield losses and the removal of some areas from cotton production. It is therefore likely to impact on the long-term sustainability of the cotton industry.
