Should Australia Export Its Native Birds?, Ross Kingwell

Biosecurity Research Articles

Commercial export from Australia of native birds, wild or captive bred, is prohibited. This paper firstly describes the current legislation and regulations that restrict the export of native birds and discusses why governments have adopted such a regulatory approach to bird species preservation. Secondly, the paper reviews the debate concerning the export ban, pointing out strengths and weaknesses in arguments and indicating the important role of CITES. Lastly, the paper outlines a new case for a conditional lifting of the ban, whereby DNA fingerprinting is used to establish transferable property rights to overcome a main source of market failure in …

New Unit's First Job: Spacing For 300-Pound Market Weight

Haskell Agricultural Laboratory (Northeast Research and Extension Center)

You’re looking at the interior of what’s called a “double-wide” swine finishing unit unveiled at the University of Nebraska Northeast Research and Extension Center open house, at Concord, in late June.
Northeast Center swine specialist Mike Brumm says the first study in the new research unit will look at space requirements for feeding pigs to a market weight of 300 pounds under all-in-all out operation. Various pen size and number combinations will be the focus of future research in the unit which can be divided into the following arrangements: Eight pens, each 14 by 16 feet; 16 pens, each 8 …

Perennial Lymegrass (Leymus Arenarius And L. Mollis) As Potential Crop Species For Northern Latitudes, Kesara Anamthawat-Jónsson, Jón Gudmundsson, Birkir Bragason, P. K. Martin, R. M. D. Koebner

Herbarium Publications

The aim of the present study is to improve the perennial lymegrass (L. arenarius and L. mollis) for cultivation as potential cereal crop for Iceland as well as for other regions of native lymegrass distribution. The study will also provide cereal breeders with broader genetic resource containing several characters of the wild species such as tolerance to extreme environments and perhaps resistance to pathological diseases.

Evaluation And Utilization Of Biodiversity In Triticeae For Wheat Lmprovement, A. B. Damania, J. Valkoun

Herbarium Publications

To adapt new varieties to a wide spectrum of environments breeders and farmers have emphasized the need for broadening the current narrow genetic base of modern varieties of important cereal crops such as wheat and barley. In response to this need, several thousand samples of indigenously cultivated Triticeae species and their wild relatives have been collected from the centers of diversity. However, gene bank collections are of little use if they are not evaluated and the information disseminated widely. Evaluation is essentially the link between conservation and use. Some of the collected material has been evaluated at the International Center …

Attempts To Produce Alien Addition Lines In Triticum Durum, Domenico Pignone

Herbarium Publications

Aneuploid stocks in durum wheat are few, and alien additions are particularly rare. The present contribution describes the results of a program aimed at the addition of alien chromosomes to tetraploid wheat. Aegilops caudata, Ae. longissima and Dasypyrum villosum were used as chromosome donors. The crossing program involved the production of amphidiploids with the wheat cytoplasm and the recurrent crossing with durum wheat pollen. IS monosomic addition (2n= 29) plants were obtained and partly selfed and/or backcrossed to wheat. Two disomic addition (2n = 30) plants, possessing two different Ae. caudata chromosomes, were obtained; unfortunately they were very weak and …

Use Of Annual And Perennial Triticeae Species For Wheat Improvement, A. Mujeeb-Kazi

Herbarium Publications

Constraints due to global biotic and abiotic stress continue to exist in wheat germ plasm. Novel genetic diversity resides in several annual/perennial Triticeae species that can be introgressed into wheat through intergeneric hybridization, of which Thinopyrum curvifolium is the principle source as it addresses the emphasis here for achieving wheat derivatives resistant to Helminthosporium leaf blight (Cochliobolus sativus). Some additional sources like Th. elongatum (2n=2x= 14) and Secale cereale are also mentioned. The interspecific hybridization strategy offers alien genetic introgression opportunities, for which the closely related Triticum species have a priority. Of these sources, the D genome T. tauschii (Aegilops …

Breeding Potential Of Durum Wheat Landraces From Jordan Ill. Rate And Duration Of Grain Fill, A. A. Jaradat, M. M. Ajlouni

Herbarium Publications

Grain fill of durum wheat coincides with terminal drought and high temperature stress in the Mediterranean region. Genotypic variation for rate and duration of grain fill was studies in 250 landrace durum wheat genotypes collected in Jordan. A quadratic polynomial was used to describe the relationship between kernel weight and accumulated growing-degree-days from anthesis to maturity. Fitted curves were employed to estimate rate and duration of grain fill. Genotypic differences were found for both traits. Genotypes with high grain filling rate and high kernel weight were identified. Based on grain yield per spike, spikelet fertility, 1000-kernel weight, rate and duration …
