Summary
Quantitative PCR facility for New England region of NSW. The project will deliver the first real-time PCR facility in the New England Region of NSW for use by University, CSIRO and Industry scientists. The facility will be based at the University of New England and be used by animal scientists, molecular biologists, parasitologists, immunologists and botanists at these institutions, in many cases in collaborative research projects.

The project will deliver the first real-time PCR facility in the New England Region of NSW for use by University, CSIRO and Industry scientists. The facility will be based at the University of New England and be used by animal scientists, molecular biologists, parasitologists, immunologists and botanists at these institutions, in many cases in collaborative research projects. It will also support the training of seven PhD students and a post-doctoral fellow. The facility will be unique to the region and will remove our current need to use facilities in Brisbane or Sydney.Read moreRead less

Summary
An integrated statistical genetics framework for breeding superior wheat varieties. Genetic studies in agriculture are rapidly increasing in size and complexity in pursuit of genes behind desirable traits such as yield and water use efficiency. This project will address the need for efficient statistical methods to analyse genetic data and thus enable production of wheat varieties that will contribute to Australian food security.
