Research Project:
SUGARCANE BREEDING, VARIETAL DEVELOPMENT, AND DISEASE DIAGNOSIS (GUANGXI ACADEMY OF AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES, NANNING, P.R. CHINA)
Project Number: 6410-21000-014-06
Project Type:
Nonfunded Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Apr 01, 2006
End Date: Mar 31, 2011
Objective:
The objective of this cooperative research project is to improve the possibilities of obtaining new sugarcane varieties and to develop new production and disease diagnostic techniques through the exchange and evaluation of germplasm and molecular and agronomic technologies with the ultimate goal of production sustainability.
Approach:
ARS and the Cooperator will exchange true seed, wild and experimental lines, and new varieties (Material) for use as parental clones in their respective breeding programs and for testing and evaluation for specific traits of interest or as commercial cultivars, as well as new molecular and production technologies to enhance yield or reduce input costs.
