Food Legume Nurseries: International Nursery Report 1982/83
The main objective of the program is to provide a mechanism for the multi-location testing of the genetic material of chickpea, faba beans, and lentils originating from national and International programs.
The testing aims ...
Genome-Wide Association Study of Spot Form of Net Blotch Resistance in the Upper Midwest Barley Breeding Programs
Pyrenophora teres f. maculata, the causal agent of spot form of net blotch (SFNB), is an emerging pathogen of barley in USA and Australia. Compared to net form of net blotch (NFNB), less is known in the United States upper ...

Food uses of barley
Barley grain is used as feed, malt, and food. Our ancestors depended on barley as a staple food more than we
do now. Barley played an important role in the origin and development of the Neolithic culture.
Since its ...
Factors affecting the variability of household water use in Melbourne,Australia
This study investigates the variability of household water use in Melbourne with the aim of improvingthe current understanding of factors affecting residential water use. This understanding is critical topredicting household ...
Influence of spillovers to Australia on impacts of the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas
There is growing evidence of spillover effects to developed countries from the plant genetic improvement work of international agricultural research centers (IARCs) that nevertheless benefit the targeted developing countries. ...
Forecasting daily reference evapotranspiration for Australia using numerical weather prediction outputs
Farmers and irrigation system operators make real-time irrigation decisions based on a range of
factors including crop water requirement and short-term weather forecasts of rainfall and air temperature.
Forecasts of reference ...
Characterization of quantitative trait loci controlling genetic variation for preharvest sprouting in synthetic backcross-derived wheat lines
Aegilops lauschii, the wild relative of wheat, has stronger seed dormancy, a major component of preharvest sprouting resistance (PHSR), than bread wheat. A diploid Ae. lanschii accession (AUS18836) and a tetraploid (Triticum ...

Evidence that dicot-infecting mastreviruses arep articularly prone to inter-species recombination and have likely been circulating in Australia for longer than in Africa and the Middle East
Viruses of the genus Mastrevirus (family Geminiviridae) are transmitted by leafhoppers and infect either mono- or dicotyledonous plants. Here we have determined the full length sequences of 49 dicot-infecting mastrevirus ...
