CUR00023 - CCDM - Centre for Crop and Disease management
The CCDM is a strategic partnership between GRDC and Curtin University that was established as a national centre to address this increasing fungal pathogen impact. CCDM focuses upon capacity building, research activity and industry development to minimise the impact of foliar pathogens (other than rust) and fungicide resistance. The nature of CCDM and its research co-investment allows multidisciplinary teams to tackle major fungal pathogens of cereals, pulses and canola from several different directions. For each pathosystem the research focuses on understanding the pathogen through its genomics and population structure, examining host and pathogen interactions, developing new forms of host resistance and breeding tools, and by investing in optimising the use of fungicides and other control measures.
