  Developing metabolite and lipid biomarkers to select for reduced frost sensitivity in wheat

  Frost events near flowering significantly reduce wheat yields across the Australian cropping belt. Previous research, with limited germplasm, hinted at specific plant tissue composition-metabolites and lipids-as potential contributors to underlying…

  Determining the effect of wheat morphological and anatomical traits on frost susceptibility of wheat

  In Australian cropping environments, frosts represent a major and increasingly regular constraint to wheat yields and enduring grower profitability. The most damaging frosts are those that occur in spring when cereals are close to, or at flowering.…

  Proof of concept to explore epidermal flavonoids as high throughput phenotype markers for heat tolerance in wheat

  Australia has warmed, on average, by 1.47 ± 0.24 °C since national records began in 1910 and this trend will continue. To mitigate crop losses and establish sustainable wheat production, GRDC is investing to identify target biochemical…

  Effective virus management in grain crops (C3)

  Insects lack the ability to synthesise sterols that are essential for their cellular structure and hormone synthesis. As such, insects require a dietary source of sterol and herbivorous pests, such as aphids, rely on sterols from plants. However,…
