Dear CAIGE colleagues,
W elcome to the March
edition of the CAIGE newsletter.
March is always a busy time of the year
for CAIGE, so we have plenty of news to
report!
One of the biggest event of the month
was our Annual CAIGE meeting, held in
Adelaide. I would like to say thanks to
the participants and attendees, who
joined us for the day. It was a pleasure to
meet you! This meeting was a great op-
portunity to catch up with the CAIGE
community and share the progress of the
project or issues. We do apologize for
the late notice for the dates and the in-
convenience it created.
Due to unforeseen events, the seed in-
crease for 2016 had some issues and was
partially increased throughout summer.
It is almost finished and is showing very
good results. We aim to deliver the seeds
as soon as possible for the next yield trial
by mid-April.
The last yield trials have been analyzed
and are available on CAIGE website for
durum, bread wheat and barley. All the
details can be found on page 4.
March is a busy season for the CAIGE
project, involving a great amount of seed
movement and trial preparation. A sum-
mary is given on page 3 and 5.
The joke section is still here at the end,
so don’t miss it! Enjoy.
A bientôt
Marine Guerret
CAIGE Coordinator

The CAIGE annual meeting was held on Monday 6th March 2017 at the Uni-
versity of Adelaide, Waite Campus. Despite the change of dates, about 30
people attended the meeting.
Dr Amer Dababat from CIMMYT-Turkey joined us and presented his work on
Soil Borne Pathogen resistance screening. He kindly represented Dr Ravi
Singh and Dr Karim Ammar from CIMMYT and delivered their presentations
( bread and durum respectively). The presentation from ICARDA (bread and
durum) was delivered by Prof Richard Trethowan on behalf of Dr Tadesse
Wuletaw and Dr Filippo Bassi.
Dr Mark Dieters could not join us physically in Adelaide but still managed to
present the CAIGE-barley report via teleconference.
Dr Ian Edwards talked about his last visit to CIMMYT and how enriching this
event is for the Australian breeders.
Dr Livinus Emebiri came from Wagga Wagga and gave us an exciting update
of his biosecurity project.
All the presentations delivered at the meeting can be found on the CAIGE
website: NEWS >> CAIGE MEETING (or click HERE ).
Please, remember to ask for permission is you wish to use any material from
the presentations. Thank you to all who attended and we hope to see you at
the next year’s meeting as well!

CAIGE Yield trial 2017
Barley– Wheat-Durum
The 2016 shipment was multiplied at Narrabri and
Esperance in 2016. The Esperance Increase was
flooded and the CIMMYT durum wheat shipped too
late to Australia. CAIGE multiplied these lines over
summer in Armidale and Tamworth, which slightly
delayed the plans for CAIGE yield trials in 2017. To
reassure you, the summer increase went very well
and with the high temperature, the harvest will take
place a bit earlier than initially planned. We hope to
have all the seeds packaged and sent to the breed-
ers by mid April. We will communicate any updates
to the breeders.
