The Efficacy Of Rice As A Leaching
Published 2005-10-26The concluding phase(s) of a rice rotation experiment presented the opportunity to assess the effect of consecutive crops of rice on the chemistry of the soil profile. An experiment which aimed to determine the potential ...Open AccessOther -
Molecular Basis Of Cold-Induced Pollen Sterility In Rice.
Published 2005-10-26Cold-induced pollen sterility is the most yield-affecting problem for the Australian rice industry,leading to yield losses of 20-40%,or A$15-29 million, on average every 3-4 years. The molecular basis of the problem remains ...Open AccessOther -
Screening Reproductive-Stage Cold Tolerance For The NSW Rice Improvement Program
Published 2005-10-26A summary of this work is provided. The rest of the report will subsequently be the basis for information contained in a thesis to be produced by John Smith, Masters student. This project aimed at developing a clearly-defined ...Open AccessOther -
Minerals For Sustainable Grain Yield And Grain Quality.
Published 2005-10-26Rice cropping is an intensive enterprise. To be sustainable and to use water efficiently, rice requires adequate plant-essential nutrients. Nutrient supply has an impact on both grain yield and grain quality. In this project ...Open AccessOther -
Molecular Basis Of Cold-Induced Pollen Sterility In Rice
Published 2005-10-26We have used two approaches to study the molecular basis of cold-induced pollen sterility in rice. Firstly, we studied the effect of cold on sugar metabolism in rice anthers, with the intention to identify genes that are ...Open AccessOther
