Funded Activity Summary

Quarantine bioassay insectory. A climate-controlled, multi unit quarantine greenhouse to be located at the UWS Hawkesbury campus will support investigations into novel strategies for control of agricultural pests, particularly via bioassay. This world-class facility will enable researchers from Universities of Southern Cross, Sydney and Western Sydney to work with contained virulent/resistant strains of agricultural pests, and genetically modified organisms. It will enhance already existing collaboration between the institutions in the areas of: bioactives of biological origin, novel pesticide action, pesticide resistance management and new crop varieties, and will ensure better utilisation of existing excellent facilities within the consortium.
