Trial 88ES1
Mechanisms controlling development in barley.
Location: Melijinup Field Station.
A range of barley varieties have been assessed for their level of adaptation to a range of sowing dates across the cereal growing region of W.A. This study aims to determine the mechanisms controlling development in cultivars which represent the range of development responses available. The relative importance of photoperiod and vernalisation response and inherent earliness will be determined for each variety.

Trial 90M055
Associated work: 90NO112, 105,104.111, 90MO53, 54,56
Location: Dandaragan
This project characterizes the dynamics of nitrogen supply to a wheat crop at each of the sites on which various methods of making fertilizer recommendation were tested. It supposedly provides the "optimum" nitrogen fertilizer regime as well as detailed information on nitrogen supply and demand so that results can be made transferable to other situations.

Trial 90EC29
Effect of depth and degree of soil disturbance on root and shoot growth of wheat on wind erosion prone sandy soil.
Location: East Chapman Research Station.
The long-term fertility and stability of the yellow, grey and white sands which make up 60% of the northern wheatbelt soils can only be safeguarded through strict adherence to conservation cropping practices: notably, direct drilling of both cereal and lupin crops. Work by R. Jarvis has shown a 10 - 15% yield advantage due to cultivation of sandplain soils, and data suggest that it is cultivation depth (degree of soil loosening) rather …

This trial was of similar design to the single row evaluation, except four replications and pesticide treatments were also included.
However the trial had to be abandoned due to severe phytotoxic responses seen in the medics due to repeated spraying of 'Lorsban' (used at recommended rates).
Intended to repeat this work in 1990, bulk seed where possible and to eventually assess these lines, under such conditions, in large plots.
