The goal of this project is to develop next-generation rhizobial inoculation systems for lentils by integrating advanced seed-coating technologies with climate-adapted plant growth-promoting bacteria. The project aims to deliver pre-inoculated, ready-to-sow lentil...

Summary
This project will provide management strategies that mitigate frost risk for lentil by assessing the ability of lentils to recover following frost events when supplied with frost tolerance promoting products, including hormones to enhance flower recovery and bactericides to act as antimicrobial agents, compared to without these products. This project is a co-investment with GRDC providing 50% of the total funding.

Novel plant growth-promoting bacteria to increase wheat productivity and NUE (UAD2426)
This project will evaluate the performance, stability, and nitrogen-use efficiency benefits of the previously selected high-performing plant growth-promoting bacterial strains across cropping environments relevant to SA growers. It will translate the results towards...
Optimising a DGT to predict the risk of IMI herbicide residues (UAD0626)
Herbicide residues such as those of imidazolinones (IMI) products are of increasing concern to growers. However, predictive tests to assess the potential toxicity of herbicide residues to crops are not currently available. This project will establish and validate a...
