Aims Continue to develop and field test CottonLOGIC and related management cl packages with particular emphasis on lngard cotton and later food spray technology. 2.

This document reports the findings from a survey of drip irrigated cotton growers and equipment manufacturers conducted during May-June, 2000.

The project objective was to contribute to production of Helicoverpa resistant cotton cultivars by identifying proteins capable of blocking insect digestion.

The discovery this season of Fov in many cotton districts previously thought to be free from the disease has sent shock waves throughout the industry.

major project objectives: 1. Xcm avirulence (avr) genes as SAR triggers Characterise F1 progeny in terms of expression levels of SAR markers and tolerance to fungal infection using Verticillium and Altemaria 2.

Through a review of the literature it is apparent that many of the generic methods and techniques which will be so valuable to the efficient implementation of precision agriculture farming systems are being developed

The stated objectives/proposed outcomes in the grant application were: * Testing of biocontrol agents in diverse geographical regions. * Sharing of methodology to study endophytic biocontrol agents.

The primary aim of this study was to investigate a range of strategies for the identification of molecular markers linked with Verticillium wilt response in cotton. The research was carried out on the parental G.

A system of 24 artificial streams was constructed on the banks of the Namoi River, New South Wales (NSW) to simulate the lotic environment of the rivers in the surrounding cotton-growing region.

Polymeria longifolia grows concurrently with the cotton crop making management very difficult. Active shoot growth of P.

The principal tasks of the conference were to: * review progress in the context of agriculture and related land-use towards the principles containect in the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, Ri

This book is the product of a project jointly funded by the RIRDC/LWRRDC/FWPRDC Joint Venture Agroforestry Program and the Cotton R&D Corporation.

What were the Project Objectives 1) Calibrate thiodicarb laboratory discriminating dose data w ith levels of control of Helicoverpa in the field.

3.1 Objectives: 1) develop methods and techniques to assess soil salinity and identify irrigation inefficiencies at the field scale 2) develop inexpensive methods and techniques to estimate groundwater recharge rate o

Update Canberra biotechnology group on the ecology and severity of fusarium wilt of cotton with a view to deciding whether novel genes being researched may be used in cotton

The aim of this study was to construct a microsatellite library for the pest moth Heliothis armigera and to use this library to investigate temporal shifts in population structure.

A survey of cotton growers in 1992 (CRDC Project DAN 76C) showed widespread interest in the use of rotation crops, plus a need for more information about the benefits of legume rotations and the effect of rotation man

Plants respond to infection by increasing the levels of several proteins, known as PR (pathogen response) proteins (Ward et al., 1991).

The focus of this project included several aims.

The current, first edition of the Best Management Practices Manual was developed as part of the joint research program"Minimising the Impacts of Pesticides on the Riverine Environment'', which was funde
