national variety trials nvt program was established in 2005 by grdc to assist australian growers’ variety selections by providing a national program of comparative crop variety testing with standardised trial management, data generation, collection and dissemination. the need for nvt was driven by the need for growers to access independent, robust and relevant evaluation information to assist in choosing varieties most suited to their environment.the largest co-ordinated field trial network of its kind in the world, nvt is a 100% grdc investment.

supply of significant gaps in our knowledge of nitrogen n cycling and losses, soil organic matter om fractions, and mineralisation potential in cropping soils, and many growers are not factoring declining soil om into their n fertiliser decisions. this national investment will accurately measure n transformations in soils, n uptake in crops across rotations, and n losses at a number of medium to long-term core experimental sites representing the key cropping systems and soil types across australia. other data on n cycling will be generated by short-term field and glasshouse experiments.

improved understanding of canola phenology and sowing time resulting from grdc investment has afforded many canola growers the opportunity to plant canola across a wider sowing window without increasing their exposure to frost. however, this change in grower practice has exposed the scale and magnitude of poor canola plant establishment nationally. even in favourable conditions, canola establishment remains an ongoing issue for growers with consistent reports of 50% establishment even with the use of high-quality, high-germinating seed. this investment seeks an integrated and holistic approach to address poor canola establishment. consideration is required of factors by which genetic diversity for secondary dormancy in canola, seedling vigour, field stand establishment are influenced and can be improved through genetic and agronomic/management practices. the investment needs to determine the relationship between secondary dormancy, genetic response of seeds to temperature and to what extent they impact on crop establishment. the role of varietal differences genetics in primary and secondary dormancy in canola, the response to temperature and subsequent impact on crop establishment needs to be evaluated, and the question of whether canola cultivars with low potential of secondary dormancy induction can readily germinate will be explored. additionally, this investment needs to characterise ideal growing environments for canola seed production especially temperatures during grain filling and evaluate agronomic practices that result in improved seed establishment. crop establishment and early growth are key components in timely sowing and in optimising biomass essential to greater crop yields.

purpose of this investment is to enable the development of new barley varieites with increased genetic resistance to nfnb, sfnb and scald. this will be achieved through four interelated programs as detailed below., development of international pathogen or host diversity sets this procurement. the development and maintenance of international pathogen and host differential sets is a key resource for identifying new virulent pathotypes in the field and identifying novel sources of genetic resistance. this program aims to work and collaborate internationally to develop pathogen or host differential sets for nfnb, sfnb and scald. the knowledge gained from this coordinated effort will reduce duplication and redundancy in these key barley foliar disease host-pathosystems, facilitate the optimal deployment of new genes by breeding programs and maximise field surveying efforts., comprehensive international pathogen and host diversity sets developed for nfnb, sfnb and scald and in use by australian pathologists and researchers., surveillance and monitoring of pathogen populations - please refer to the austender page for this procurement number., screening of diverse barley germplasm for novel sources of resistance - please refer to the austender page for this procurement number., screening of elite breeder material transitioning to a fee for service model - please refer to the austender page for this procurement number. applicants can apply for any comination of programs.

purpose of this investment is to enable the development of new barley varieites with increased genetic resistance to nfnb, sfnb and scald. this investment consists of four programs of work as follows:, development of international pathogen or host diversity sets please refer to the austender page for this procurement number., surveillance and monitoring of pathogen populations - this procurement. the sfnb, nfnb and scald pathogensare genetically and pathogenically diverse, they’re able to reproduce sexually and have the ability torapidly develop new virulences and overcome genetic resistance. this has been observed in both the nfnb and scald pathogen populations and necessitates continual surveillance and monitoring of pathogen populations in the field to identify new virulent pathotypes. this program aims to conduct annual field surveillance to monitor the pathogen evolution of nfnb, sfnb and scald in the field., and annually thereafter knowledge of pathogen population structure and virulence shifts of nfnb, sfnb and scald nationally, screening of diverse barley germplasm for novel sources of resistance - please refer to the austender page for this procurement number., screening of elite breeder material transitioning to a fee for service model - please refer to the austender page for this procurement number. applicants can apply for any combination of programs.

purpose of this investment is to enable the development of new barley varieites with increased genetic resistance to nfnb, sfnb and scald. this investment consists of four programs of work as follows: proc-9176089 program 1: development of international pathogen / host diversity sets - please refer to the austender page for this procurement number. proc-9176090 program 2: surveillance and monitoring of pathogen populations - please refer to the austender page for this procurement number. proc-9176091 program 3: screening of diverse barley germplasm for novel sources of resistance - please refer to the austender page for this procurement number. proc-9176092 program 4: screening of elite breeder material transitioning to a fee for service model - this procurement. industry access to a reliable, high-throughput disease screening capacity is a critical component of an effective nfnb, sfnb and scald improvement effort. this program will support the development of high throughput and accurate nfnb, sfnb and scald screening methods and facilities using standardised techniques, isolates, controls and well characterised testing environments. the establishment of this infrastructure will enable australian barley breeders to accelerate and expand efforts to deploy new and durable nfnb, sfnb and scald resistance in barley varieties to australian growers. it is anticipated that by the start of the third year 2022 of the investment the screening of elite breeder material will transition to a fee for service model.

supply of currently have a single quadrupole icpms and are looking to replace the unit with a tq icpms with better sensitivity, improved interference removal or management in a semiconductor configuration. the instrument will support the widest possible range of elemental analyses for research and routine application with the ability to be coupled to our laser ablation and seafast systems. the instrument needs to be reliable, with short and long term stability and user friendly software.
