Cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii Glover) is a late season pest of cotton, with the potential to

reduce the value of lint by contaminating it with sticky honeydew secretions. Recently, cotton

To establish if the spider communities in cotton at different locations around Australia are similar, we sampled, using beatsheets and pitfall traps, over 4500 spiders from seven locations extending from the tropical

Australian industry makes the management of resistance to the Cry1Ac toxin of Bacillus

Purpose of Exchange: Attend Visual Basic Developers Conference, This application was for Scott Johnston to attend the Access/ Visual Basic Developers, Conference, Las Vegas, Nevada USA, 8-12 June 2003.

In growing their crops Australian cotton farmers need to comply with Australian regulations.

The project has made significant contributions to further our understanding of causes

and consequences of climate variability and climate change.

This project examined how and when individual Helicoverpa armigera carrying a resistant allele (BX) were favoured in field-grown cotton, particularly on Ingard®.

Catchment scale modelling is an invaluable tool to determine the impact of policies and, legislation on the catchment outcomes.

This directory consolidates the breadth of ground-breaking research commissioned by the National Dryland Salinity Program (NDSP) with significant research findings and resources on dryland salinity developed throughou

Within the limitations of regional to national scale studies undertaken by NDSP and associated research, this report makes as much progress as possible in providing answers to key farm scale questions: * Is salinity l
