Interactive <strong>Variety</strong> Description System (IVDS)<br />
For preparing the detailed description, the <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder’s Rights Office (PBRO) has<br />
released the Interactive <strong>Variety</strong> Description System (IVDS) in the Internet<br />
(https://pbr-ivds.ipaustralia.plantbreeders.gov.au/pbr_ivds/) for the Qualified Persons<br />
(QPs).<br />
In the beginning of April 2005, all QPs have officially been notified of this new<br />
system giving them access to IVDS with their individual user name and<br />
password. The main purpose of the system is to harmonise variety descriptions at both<br />
national and international level and make the PBR application process as smooth and<br />
efficient as possible.<br />
The IVDS allows QPs to fill in descriptions on-line by accessing relevant test<br />
guidelines and selecting specific characteristics with their various states of<br />
expressions from the options provided. The IVDS incorporated all of the approved<br />
UPOV test guidelines (and some national equivalents where a UPOV test guideline is<br />
not available) into interactive forms with easy to use drop-down menus. QPs can<br />
“build” their own additional/special characteristics if they are not available in the<br />
guideline. The IVDS also accepts statistical information.<br />
The IVDS emphasises the use of “grouping characteristics” in selecting comparator<br />
varieties. Finally, it allows QPs to lodge the completed variety descriptions on-line.<br />
There is a minimum typing involved in the process.<br />
The PBRO anticipates that the QPs had the opportunity to familiarise themselves with<br />
IVDS during the testing and demonstration phase (August – Dec 2004) and could<br />
operate the system comfortably. There are step by step on-screen instructions with<br />
examples in each step of IVDS, which will assist the QPs to complete the process<br />
smoothly. In addition, PBRO is ready to help QPs, if they encounter any problem.<br />
Please send an e-mail to pbr@ipaustralia.gov.au if there is a problem in completing<br />
the description using IVDS.<br />

Objections and revocations<br />
Objections to Applications and Requests for Revocation of a Grant or of a<br />
Declaration that a <strong>Plant</strong> <strong>Variety</strong> is Essentially Derived from Another <strong>Plant</strong><br />
<strong>Variety</strong><br />
The <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder’s Rights scheme is administered consistent with the model law of<br />
the International Convention for the Protection of New <strong>Plant</strong> Varieties 1991 (UPOV<br />
91), that is, applicants are entitled to protection, in the absence of proof to the<br />
contrary.<br />
The <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder’s Rights Office (PBRO) is not required to advocate for the views,<br />
assertions, and opinions of persons challenging an application for plant breeder’s<br />
rights. Those objecting to applications, requesting revocation of a grant, or seeking a<br />
declaration that a plant variety is essentially derived from another plant variety should<br />
provide sufficient probative evidence to enable the Secretary to be satisfied of their<br />
validity of their claims. It cannot be stressed too strongly that all available evidence<br />
ought to accompany the application for objection/revocation/declaration at the outset.<br />
Occasionally the PBRO receives comments on applications. The PBRO seeks to give<br />
effect to the processes set out in the PBR Act. The Act provides for a formal objection<br />
process, and comments are not formal objections. Where members of the public<br />
genuinely believe their commercial interests would be affected and that PBR for a<br />
proposed variety ought not to be granted, they are encouraged to use the Act's<br />
processes, eg. lodging an objection. Comments are simply informal information from<br />
the public to a governmental decision maker. The PBRO will generally not engage in<br />
further communication with the commentator regarding their comment, although the<br />
comment may be valuable in alerting the PBRO to an important matter of which it<br />
was previously unaware.<br />
Objections to Applications<br />
A person may make objections to applications for PBR if (i) their commercial<br />
interests would be affected adversely, and (ii) the application will not fulfil all the<br />
conditions required by the <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder’s Rights Act.<br />
Objections to applications must be lodged with the Registrar no later than six months<br />
after the date the description of the variety is published in this journal. The objector<br />
must provide evidence of adverse affect on their commercial interests and that the<br />
application should not be granted.<br />
The Registrar of the <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder’s Rights Office (PBRO) is required to give a copy<br />
of the objection to the applicant. The objection is also available to the general public<br />
on request. The applicant has the opportunity to respond to the evidence<br />
presented. The Registrar then decides whether or not the objection will be upheld and,<br />
subsequently, whether the application will be granted. The PBRO is under no<br />
obligation to enter into further dialogue regarding an objection or to communicate<br />
reasons why an objection is not upheld. If an objection is upheld it will be notified in<br />
this journal.<br />
Page 4 of 550<br />
<strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong> Vol. 21 No.3
A payment of $100 is required on lodgement of the objection. Additional costs of $75<br />
per hour for work undertaken in relation to the objection will be billed to the objector.<br />
Requests for Revocation, (where an individual’s interests are affected) of:<br />
· a Grant<br />
· a Declaration that a <strong>Plant</strong> <strong>Variety</strong> is Essentially Derived<br />
A person may, when their interests are affected adversely, apply for the revocation of:<br />
· a grant of PBR; or<br />
· a declaration that a plant variety is essentially derived from another plant variety.<br />
The person requesting revocation is required to lodge a revocation payment fee of<br />
$500. The person seeking revocation of a grant or declaration that a plant variety is<br />
essentially derived from another plant, must provide conclusive evidence of adverse<br />
affect on their interests and that the grant should be revoked.<br />
The PBRO also accepts information regarding revocation of grants and declarations<br />
of essentially derived plant varieties. Such information must demonstrate conclusively<br />
that a grant or declaration should not have been made. All written information will be<br />
acknowledged. The PBRO is under no obligation to enter into further communication<br />
regarding information provided.<br />

Report on Breeding Issues<br />
A report providing greater clarification of certain ‘difficult’ and sometimes<br />
controversial plant breeding issues has been finalised by a panel of experts. The report<br />
defines ‘discovery’, ‘selective propagation’ and ‘eligible breeding’ methodologies as<br />
well as canvassing questions and answers to a range of situations. The principal areas<br />
covered are the source population and associated issues relating to ownership,<br />
location, homogeneity, parentage, boundaries, and selection from variable material.<br />
The issue of essentially derived varieties and the relationship between the first and the<br />
second breeder(s) is also explored. The final report of the expert panel is<br />
available now.<br />

Overseas Testing/Data<br />
Use of Overseas Data<br />
The PBR Act allows DUS data produced in other countries (overseas data) be used in<br />
lieu of conducting a comparative trial in <strong>Australia</strong> provided certain conditions are<br />
met; relating to the filing of applications, sufficiency of the data and the likelihood<br />
that the candidate variety will express the distinctive characteristic(s) in the same way<br />
when grown locally. Briefly the overseas data could be considered where:<br />
• The first PBR application relating to the candidate variety has been lodged<br />
overseas, and<br />
• the variety has previously been test grown in a UPOV member country using<br />
official UPOV test guidelines and test procedures, (i.e. equivalent to a<br />
comparative trial in <strong>Australia</strong>) and<br />
• either, all the most similar varieties of common knowledge (including those in<br />
<strong>Australia</strong>) have been included in the overseas DUS trial, or<br />
• the new overseas variety is so clearly distinct from all the <strong>Australia</strong>n varieties<br />
of common knowledge that further DUS test growing is not warranted, and<br />
• sufficient data and descriptive information is available to publish a description<br />
of the variety in an accepted format in <strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong>; and to satisfy<br />
the requirements of the PBR Act.<br />
Taxa that must be trailled in <strong>Australia</strong><br />
It is the policy of PBR office to not accept overseas data for the following taxa due to<br />
the wide genotype by environment interactions that have been previously<br />
experienced. Varietal descriptions from overseas trials have consistently been<br />
different from those obtained from trials grown under <strong>Australia</strong>n conditions.<br />
Consequently, for the following taxon a full PBR trial must be conducted in <strong>Australia</strong>:<br />
Solanum tuberosum Potato<br />
The Qualified Person, in consultation with the agent/applicant, and perhaps other<br />
specialists and taxonomists, will need to evaluate the overseas data, test report and<br />
photographs to see if the application does fulfil all PBR Office requirements, and then<br />
advise the agent/applicant:<br />
• either, to submit Part 2 incorporating a description for publication, any<br />
additional data and photographs and to pay the examination fee;<br />
• or, to conduct a DUS trial in <strong>Australia</strong>, recommending to the applicant/agent<br />
which additional varieties of common knowledge to include;<br />
Page 7 of 550<br />
<strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong> Vol. 21 No.3
• or, submit Part 2 including additional data (information about similar varieties<br />
in <strong>Australia</strong> to show that they are clearly distinct from the candidate variety<br />
that a further DUS test growing including the similar varieties is not warranted<br />
and that the variety displays the distinctive characteristics when grown in<br />
<strong>Australia</strong>)<br />
Please note that the PBR office does not obtain overseas DUS test reports on behalf of<br />
applicants. It is the sole responsibility of the applicants to obtain these reports directly<br />
from the relevant overseas testing authorities. Where applicants already have the<br />
report they are advised to submit a certified true copy of the report with the Part 1<br />
application. Applicants, or those duly authorised, may certify the copy.<br />
If you do not have the test report available at the time of Part-1 application then you<br />
are advised to submit the Part-1 application without the test report. However, you<br />
should make arrangements to procure the DUS test report directly from the relevant<br />
testing authority. When the report becomes available, a certified copy should be<br />
supplied to the QP and the PBR office.<br />
When the trial is based on an UPOV technical guideline and test report in an official<br />
UPOV language (English, German or French), it can be lodged in support of the<br />
application. In other cases the test reports must be in English.<br />
The applicant/agent and Qualified Person should use the overseas test report to<br />
complete Part 2 of the application, making a decision on how to proceed in view of<br />
the completeness of the information, the comparators (if any) used in the overseas<br />
DUS trial and their knowledge of similar <strong>Australia</strong>n varieties that may not have been<br />
included in the overseas test report.<br />
If a description is based on an overseas test report, <strong>Australia</strong>n PBR will not be granted<br />
until after the decision to grant PBR in the country producing the DUS test is made.<br />
The final decision on the acceptability of overseas data rests with the PBR office.<br />

PBR Infringement<br />
Grantees should be aware of recent revisions to infringement provisions of the <strong>Plant</strong><br />
Breeder’s Rights Act 1994 (see section 54) and related provisions of the Federal Court<br />
Rules (see order 58 rule 27) both of which can be found at the ComLaw site<br />

On-line Database for PBR Varieties<br />
The PBR Office has a comprehensive service for Internet users ~ a searchable<br />
database for all <strong>Australia</strong>n PBR varieties, both past and present. The database features<br />
a detailed description and image for every variety granted full rights and basic<br />
information for other PBR varieties. Searches by genus, species, common name,<br />
variety name and titleholder are some of its many advantages. Varieties for which an<br />
application has been lodged but not yet accepted in the PBR scheme are not included<br />
in this database. Please browse the <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder's Rights on-line database and<br />
provide your feedback.<br />

Cumulative Index to <strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong><br />
The cumulative index to the <strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong> has been updated to include<br />
variety information from all hardcopy versions up to volume 16 issue 3. After that<br />
issue the <strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong> is only published in the electronic format and there is<br />
no need for a cumulative index, as the variety information can be easily searched in<br />
the PBR online database and also by downloading the <strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong><br />
electronically.<br />
The final updated version of the cumulative index is available in PBR website. This<br />
document has information up to <strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong> volume 16 issue 3. The PBR<br />
office recommends use its PBR online database to get most updated information on<br />
variety registration. The online database is updated on a weekly basis.<br />

Applying for <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder's Rights<br />
Applications are accepted from the original breeder of a new variety (from their<br />
employer if the breeder is an employee) or from a person who has acquired ownership<br />
from the original breeder. Overseas breeders need to appoint an agent to represent<br />
their interests in <strong>Australia</strong>. Interested parties should contact the PBR office and an<br />
accredited Qualified Person experienced in the plant species in question.<br />
Steps in Applying for <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder's Rights<br />
• Obtain from the breeder a signed Authorisation to act as their agent in<br />
<strong>Australia</strong> for the variety in question if your role is as the <strong>Australia</strong>n agent of an<br />
overseas breeder;<br />
• Complete Part 1 of the application form, supplying a photograph of the new<br />
variety, paying the application fee, nominating an accredited 'Qualified Person'<br />
and, if the variety is an <strong>Australia</strong>n species, despatch as soon as possible<br />
a herbarium specimen;<br />
• Engage the services of the nominated accredited 'Qualified Person' to plan and<br />
supervise the comparative growing trial;<br />
• Conduct a comparative growing trial to demonstrate Distinctness, Uniformity<br />
and Stability (DUS), complete Part 2 of the application form and paying the<br />
examination fee;<br />
• Deposit propagating material in a Genetic Resources Centre.<br />
• Examination of the application by the PBR Office, which may include a field<br />
examination of the comparative growing trial; and including<br />
• Publication of a description and photograph comparing the new variety with<br />
similar varieties in <strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong>, followed by a six-month period for<br />
objection or comment.<br />
• Upon successful completion of all the requirements, resolution of objections<br />
(if any) and payment of certificate fee, the applicant(s) receive a Certificate of<br />
<strong>Plant</strong> Breeder's Rights.<br />

<strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong> Vol. 21 No.3
Requirement to Supply Comparative Varieties<br />
Once an application has been accepted by the PBR office, it is covered by provisional<br />
protection. Also it immediately becomes a ‘variety of common knowledge’ and thus<br />
may be required by others as a comparator for their applications with a higher<br />
application number.<br />
Applicants are reminded that they are required to release propagative material for<br />
comparative testing provided that the material is used for no other purpose and all<br />
material relating to the variety is returned when the trial is complete. The expenses<br />
incurred in the provision of material for comparative trials are borne by those<br />
conducting the trials.<br />
As the variety is already under provisional protection, any use outside the conditions<br />
outlined above would qualify as an infringement and would be dealt with under<br />
section 53 of the <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder’s Rights Act 1994.<br />
Applicants having difficulties procuring varieties for use in comparative trials are<br />
urged to contact the PBR office immediately<br />

UPOV Developments<br />
The UPOV Convention provides the international legal framework for the granting of<br />
plant breeders’ rights which are a key element in encouraging breeders to pursue and<br />
enhance their search for improved varieties with benefits such as higher yield and<br />
quality and better resistance to pests and diseases. <strong>Plant</strong> breeders’ rights thereby help<br />
to enhance sustainable agriculture, productivity, income, international trade and<br />
economic development in general.<br />
The members of UPOV are (as of November 18, 2007):<br />
Albania, Argentina, <strong>Australia</strong>, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil,<br />
Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark,<br />
Dominican Republic, Ecuador, European Community, Estonia, Finland, France,<br />
Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Jordan, Kenya, Kyrgyzstan,<br />
Latvia, Lithuania, Mexico, Morocco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Norway,<br />
Panama, Paraguay, Poland, Portugal, Republic of Korea, Republic of Moldova,<br />
Romania, Russian Federation, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain,<br />
Sweden, Switzerland, Trinidad and Tobago, Turkey, Tunisia, Ukraine, United<br />
Kingdom, United States of America, Uruguay, Uzbekistan and Vietnam. (Total 65).<br />
On October 18, 2007 Turkey deposited with the Office of the Union its instrument of<br />
accession to the 1991 Act of the UPOV Convention. The 1991 Act entered into force<br />
for Turkey on November 18, 2007. On that day, Turkey became the 65 th member<br />
state of UPOV.<br />
Further Information on UPOV and its activities is available on the website located at<br />

European Developments<br />
Community plant variety rights within the European Union are administered by the<br />
Community <strong>Plant</strong> <strong>Variety</strong> Office (CPVO) in Angers, France. With more than 2,600<br />
applications per year, the CPVO receives the highest number of requests for variety<br />
protection among the 63 members of UPOV. The CPVO provides for one application,<br />
one examination and one title of protection that is valid and enforceable in all 25<br />
members of the European Union.<br />
The potential applicants for <strong>Plant</strong> <strong>Variety</strong> Rights within European Union are<br />
requested to consult Notes for Applicants published by the Community <strong>Plant</strong> <strong>Variety</strong><br />
Office (CPVO). This note aims to answer legal, administrative and financial<br />
questions that one may have when requesting Community plant variety rights. Further<br />
information is available from CPVO website.<br />

Obligation under the International Convention for the Protection of<br />
New Varieties of <strong>Plant</strong>s 1991 (UPOV91)<br />
Consistent with <strong>Australia</strong>’s membership of UPOV 1991, the criteria for the granting<br />
of protection under the <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder’s Rights Act 1994 (PBRA) is that the variety:<br />
has a breeder; is new, distinct, uniform and stable; has an acceptable name; and that<br />
application formalities are completed and relevant fees payed.<br />
Applicants for protection need to be aware of the existence of any other <strong>Australia</strong>n<br />
legislation, which could impact on their intended use of the registered variety.<br />
Administrators of other <strong>Australia</strong>n legislation may have an interest in applications for<br />
registration notified in this journal.<br />
It is feasible for a new variety to be registered under the PBRA, but, as the PBRA coexists<br />
with other laws of the land, the exercise of the breeder’s right may be restricted<br />
by such legislation. For example, current legislation may prohibit the use of that<br />
variety in food, or, the growing of that variety as a noxious weed.<br />
The <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder’s Rights Office (PBRO) advises that it is the responsibility of the<br />
applicant and of administrators of legislation to take these matters up directly between<br />
the responsible parties and not with the PBRO.<br />

Instructions to Qualified Persons<br />
Instruction to Qualified Persons: Interactive <strong>Variety</strong> Description System (IVDS) for<br />
Preparing Detailed Description for <strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong><br />
For preparing the detailed description, the <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder’s Rights Office (PBRO) has<br />

Please send an e-mail to pbr@ipaustralia.gov.au if there is a problem in completing<br />
the description using IVDS.<br />
The detailed descriptions are accepted only in the IVDS format.<br />
Also, please note that the after finalising the description through IVDS, the QPs will<br />
still need to submit the signed hardcopies of the Part 2 documentations in order to<br />
complete the application process. Please contact the PBRO (pbr@ipaustralia.gov.au)<br />

Details of Comparative Trial<br />
Location Charlick Experimental Station, Strathalbyn, South <strong>Australia</strong><br />
Descriptor Barley (Hordeum vulgare) TG/19/10<br />
Period 2004<br />
Conditions The seeding rate was 60kg/ha, corresponding to approximately<br />
150 seeds per square metre. Each replicate contained<br />
approximately 500 plants.<br />
Trial Design Three replicates of each genotype were sown on 29th Jun 2004<br />
in a Randomised Complete Block Design in plots of 5 rows by<br />
3.2 metres.<br />
Measurements The trial was assessed on 3 Aug 2004, 10 Sep 2004, 27 Oct 2004<br />
and 29 Oct 2004 for a number of qualitative and quantitative<br />
traits. Fifteen randomly selected plants were assessed<br />
individually for each trait.<br />
RHS Chart - edition N/A<br />
Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: Initial crosses were made between ‘Chieftan’ and ‘Barque’ and<br />
also between ‘Manley’ and ‘VB9104’, resulting in single cross F1 plants. These F1 plants<br />
were then intercrossed, and 841 doubled haploid (DH) lines were derived from nine<br />
different intercross F1 plants. The number of these DH lines generated per plant ranged<br />
from four to 332 with 206 lines and 332 lines being the two largest sets. Of the 841 DH<br />
lines produced, 837 were evaluated in double row summer nursery trials in 1999. All<br />
lines were harvested, and data collected on screenings and quality traits were assessed by<br />
near infra-red spectroscopy (NIR). 350 selected individuals were promoted to Stage 1<br />
yield trials in 1999, grown as one replicate at three sites, with seven cultivars as grid<br />
checks. Agronomic observations were recorded, yield measured and IOB wet-chemistry<br />
quality data obtained. 70 individuals were advanced to Stage 2 yield trials in 2000 and<br />
evaluated in unreplicated trials at eight sites. Data was collected as in Stage 1 but with<br />
more detailed quality analyses. A further three individuals showing exceptional promise<br />
were promoted directly into Stage 3 yield trials in 2000 and grown in replicated trials at<br />
eleven sites. Based on results from 2000 season Stage 2 trials, seven individuals of the 70<br />
assessed were advanced to Stage 3 yield trials in 2001 and evaluated in replicated trials at<br />
eleven sites. Of the three lines grown in 2000 Stage 3 trials, the best two (WI 3407 and<br />
WI 3408) were promoted into Stage 4 variety trials in 2001 and evaluated in replicated<br />
trials at 21 sites. The third line remained in Stage 3 trials alongside the seven promoted<br />
from 2000 Stage 2. Based on 2001 trial results, WI 3408 was chosen as the most<br />
promising individual, and in 2002 and 2003 seasons was grown in replicated trials at 32<br />
sites. Initial seed multiplication was carried out over summer in 2002/2003 at Mundulla<br />
in South <strong>Australia</strong>. No off-types were present. Subsequent seed multiplication was<br />
conducted in the 2004 season at Turretfield Research Station, Rosedale, SA. Again, no<br />
off-types were present.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled cross pollination between ‘Thunder TT’, female parent, and ‘AV-Ruby’,<br />
male parent. The cultivar was produced by backcrossing ‘AV-Ruby’ into a triazine<br />
tolerant cultivar (‘Thunder TT’). The initial cross was made in Jun 2005 and<br />
backcrossing continued to BC2 during 2005. In 2006 three generations of selfing were<br />
conducted (F1, F2, F3). Selections were made at this time based on similarity to the<br />
recurrent parent. Seed increase and evaluation followed in 2007. Breeder: Andrew<br />

Details of Comparative Trial<br />
Location Mt Pleasant Laboratories, Launceston, TAS.<br />
Descriptor Caucasian clover (Trifolium ambiguum) PBR CAUC.<br />
Period Apr 2006 to Mar 2008.<br />
Conditions Seed was germinated on pads 07 Apr 2006 and pricked into<br />
64 cell Yates Rite-Gro Kwik trays and grown in glasshouse<br />
conditions under natural light. After 90 days the seedlings<br />
were transplanted into 200mm pots in a pine bark/loam based<br />
potting mix with premixed slow release fertiliser and<br />
transferred to an outside trial site under overhead irrigation.<br />
<strong>Plant</strong>s were given soluble fertiliser as required. No fungicides<br />
were used during the trial period. Snail bait was applied at<br />
regular intervals and RLEM was controlled with Astound in<br />
the first year of the trial. Weeds were controlled by hand.<br />
Trial Design Randomised block, 5 treatments, 8 replicates, 12 plants per<br />
plot.<br />
Measurements Ninety-six plants of each variety were grown and measured.<br />
RHS Chart - edition N/A.<br />
Origin and Breeding<br />
5 cycles of recurrent phenotypic selection for vigour, anthocyanin leaf marking,<br />
winter activity and a strong leaf crescent and 7 cycles of natural selection in the field.<br />
Cross-pollination of selections occurred in isolation. ‘Kuratas’ was developed from<br />
breeding line ‘Townsend’ donated by Dr. C E Townsend through the USDA North<br />
East Regional <strong>Plant</strong> Introduction Station, Geneva, New York, USA June 1986. Held<br />
by the Department of Primary Industries, Water and Environment, Mt. Pleasant<br />
Laboratories, Launceston, TAS as accession Tas 389. In 1993 60 plants were selected<br />
for seedling vigour and grown in field plots at Mt. Pleasant Laboratories, Launceston.<br />
In 1997 after 4 years of natural selection in the field, seed was harvested from<br />
surviving plants. In 1998 3500 plants were established at University of Tasmania<br />
Research Farm, Cambridge in perennial legume trial plots. In 2001 after 3 years of<br />
natural selection in the field, 20 of the surviving plants were selected from Cambridge<br />
trial for survival, vigour and anthocyanin leaf marking and transplanted into pots and<br />
grown in isolation at Mt. Pleasant Laboratories. In 2002 3 plants were selected having<br />
gone through the following selection process: 20 plants were selected for strong leaf<br />
crescent and re-selected for anthocyanin pigmentation. Those plants that did not show<br />
resistance to mildew were removed and from those that remained 3 plants were<br />
selected for winter activity. The plants were inter-pollinated in isolation at Mt Pleasant<br />
Laboratories. In 2003 the 4th phenotypic selection was carried out with 320 seedlings<br />

grown. Selection was made for vigour, anthocyanin pigmentation, winter activity and<br />
a strong leaf crescent, 60 were plants retained and inter-pollinated in isolation. In 2004<br />
the 5th phenotypic selection was carried out. 640 seedlings were grown and reselection<br />
was carried out for vigour, strong leaf crescent, winter activity and<br />
anthocyanin pigmentation. Off-types removed. Mode of propagation: seed.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: seed parent ‘DeltaEMERALD’ crossed with pollen parent ‘DP<br />
50BX’ followed by 3 backcross cycles to the recurrent parent ‘DeltaEMERALD’. The<br />
seed parent is the non GMO conventional recurrent parent variety and the pollen<br />
parent is used to introduce the transgenic Cry 1A(c) and Cry2Ab Bt insect tolerance<br />
genes. Hybridisation took place in Deltapine <strong>Australia</strong>’s greenhouse located at<br />
Locharba, Narrabri, NSW. Single plants were selected under field conditions at<br />
Locharba in the F3 generation. Progeny rows were selected in the F4 generation and<br />
the final selection was tested in replicated yield and fibre quality trials from 2003/05.<br />
Selection criteria included expression of the Cry1A(c) and Cry IIA Bt traits, disease<br />
tolerance to bacterial blight and yield and fibre quality. Propagation: by seed.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: seed parent line 98030F2 x pollen parent line 97006F3 in a<br />
planned breeding program at the <strong>Australia</strong>n Cotton Research Institute (ACRI),<br />
Narrabri NSW. The seed parent line 98030F2 is distinguished from ‘Sicot 75’ by its<br />
shorter fibre length. The pollen parent line 97006F3 is distinguished from ‘Sicot 75’<br />
by its lower lint proportion. Single plant selection followed by progeny row and<br />
multiple environment trials were carried out. Selection criteria: plant habit, resistance<br />
to bacterial blight, verticillium and Fusarium wilt, leaf hair, lint %, fibre quality and<br />
yield. Breeder: Mr Peter Reid, CSIRO, Narrabri, NSW.<br />

Descriptor Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) PBR COWP.<br />
Period 16 Feb – 27 May 2008.<br />
Conditions Seeds sown on 16 Feb 2008 in 40 x 40mm tubes (one seedling<br />
per tube); watered with a slurry of cowpea inoculant.<br />
Seedlings planted out on a red volcanic (ferrosol) soil on 5-6<br />
Mar 2008 arranged in plots each consisting of 3 rows with 7<br />
seedlings per row; plants not defoliated; weed control by preplant-incorporated<br />
trifluralin (Trifluralin) @ 2.1 L/ha plus<br />
subsequent manual roguing; 571 kg pre-plant Q5 mixed<br />
fertiliser (N:P:K:S = 5.3:5.8:5.0:13.3) applied and<br />
incorporated on 5 Mar 2008, giving 30.3 kg N, 33.1 kg P,<br />
28.6 kg K, and 76.0 kg S per hectare. Sprayed to control<br />
aphids and cutworms with pirimicarb (Piramor WG) +<br />
chlorpyrifos (Lorsban 500EC) on 19 Mar 2008. Sprayed to<br />
protect flowers and pods with thiodicarb (Larvin 375) +<br />
dimethoate (Dimethoate) + imidacloprid (Spectrum 200SC)<br />
on 23 April, 10 May and 25 May 2008.<br />
Trial Design Individual plots consisted of 3 rows (a central datum row<br />
surrounded by a guard row on either side) each with 7 plants,<br />
including 2 guard plants at the outer ends of the central datum<br />
row. Measurements were taken from sixty (60) spaced plants<br />
of each cultivar (‘BlackStallion’, ‘Ebony PR’) arranged in<br />
twelve (12) randomised blocks with five (5) plants per plot<br />
located in the central datum row; 50 cm plant spacing within<br />
and between plot rows; 1.5 m between plots.<br />
Measurements Numbers of lateral branches were counted on each of the 60<br />
datum plants on 15 Apr 2008; date of first flowering on each<br />
plant was determined progressively (6-24 Apr 2008); leaf<br />
characteristics were measured on 24 Apr 2008 (one trifoliate<br />
leaf per plant sampled from the 5th visible node below the<br />
apex of the main stem); flowers (standard petal width)<br />
measured on 23 Apr 2008 (‘BlackStallion’) and 27 Apr 2008<br />
(‘Ebony PR’); inflorescence, pod and seed measurements<br />
were taken 27 May 2008 (one inflorescence and 2 pods per<br />
plant).<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Spontaneous mutation: identified by the breeder as a single black seed in a sample of<br />
‘Red Caloona’ cowpea in 2000. He propagated this genotype repeatedly for 4 years on<br />
his own property at Burbank (QLD) to confirm its characteristics and genetic stability.<br />
Seed multiplication of ‘BlackStallion’ began in 2005 on Biloela Research Station,<br />
QLD, with 2 crops to date further confirming the genetic stability of this new cultivar.<br />
Relative to other cowpea cultivars, ‘BlackStallion’ is a dual-purpose type, producing<br />
both high forage yields and high seed yields. Its black seeds store well and are also<br />
attractive to culinary markets seeking different flavours. Breeder: Brian Algate,<br />

Location Charles Sturt University<br />
Descriptor Lavandula (Lavandula) TG/194/1,<br />
Period May 2008 – Nov 2008.<br />
Conditions All plants were produced from cuttings obtained from stock<br />
plants held by Larkman’s Nurseries, Lilydale Melbourne.<br />
Cuttings were taken at the same time in March 2008 for all<br />
varieties and these were dipped in rooting hormone and<br />
placed in a proprietary seed-raising/Perlite mix. Cuttings were<br />
placed on misting beds at 25ºC until roots developed<br />
following which plants were transfer to 5cm square tubes and<br />
acclimatised to ambient conditions over the next 4 weeks.<br />
Tubes were transferred to Charles Sturt University, Wagga<br />
Wagga by the Nigel Urwin in May 2008. <strong>Plant</strong>s were<br />
transplanted into 9cm diameter pots in Debco Terracotta<br />
and Tub potting mix. <strong>Plant</strong>s were watered every alternate day<br />
and were transferred to 20cm diameter pots in same potting<br />
mix on 2nd Aug. <strong>Plant</strong>s were grown under automatic<br />
overhead irrigation and were fertilised and treated with a<br />
fungicide as required.<br />
Trial Design The trial consisted of 8 plants of ‘Riverina Eunice’, 9 plants<br />
of ‘Hidcote’, 10 of ‘Lady’ and 10 of ‘Imperial Gem’. <strong>Plant</strong>s<br />
were arranged in a completely randomised block design.<br />
Measurements Observations were made between the 14 th and 17 th Nov and<br />
all varieties were in flower. Data on corolla colour were taken<br />
on the 22 nd of Nov 2008 when more flowers had opened.<br />
RHS Chart - edition Fifth.<br />
Origin and Breeding<br />
The starting material was a batch of seed (L. angustifolia) purchased from Gippsland<br />
seed (ABN.57027073558) 181 Queens Road, Silvan, VIC 3795 <strong>Australia</strong>. This was<br />
from L. angustifolia plants of unspecified varieties. It was sold under the common<br />
name ‘Lavender Vera’. There is no know variety of L. angustifolia called ‘Vera’ and<br />
the name ‘Lavender Vera’ is an old name synonymous with L. angustifolia (see<br />
UPOV guidelines for DUS tests for Lavandula TG/194/1 page 3 or Upson, T and<br />
Andrews, S 2004 The Genus Lavandula. Timber Press. Oregon page 124). The seed<br />
used was therefore of no known variety. The variety which is the subject of this<br />
application ‘Riverina Eunice’ came out of an experiment in which seed was<br />
germinated in the presence of colchicine to induce polyploidy. Seed was sown in Petri<br />
Page 209 of 550<br />
<strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong> Vol. 21 No.3
dishes (0.2g per dish ~200 seeds) on 2 layers of Whatman number 1 filter paper. The<br />
filters were wetted with 4 ml of 0.5 mg/ml gibberellic acid (GA3) potassium salt<br />
(Sigma) containing various amounts of colchicine. Two dishes were initiated per<br />
colchicine concentration. Colchicine solutions were made by ½ serial dilutions of a<br />
1g/L stock in the GA3 solution. Petri-dishes were sealed with Parafilm and were<br />
incubated at 22ºC in an incubator in 12 hours light/12 hours dark at 25 uE/ m 2 /s for 7<br />
days. Petri-dishes were removed to the glasshouse and plants were acclimatised to<br />
natural lighting in shade two days prior to transfer to potting mix. Seedlings were<br />
transferred to potting mix (Debco) in trays which consisted of individual cells<br />
which were 3x3 cm. <strong>Plant</strong>s were sub-irrigated by standing in a shallow tray of water<br />
for 3 weeks. Trays were then placed on misting beds and plants were finally<br />
transferred to 10cm diameter pots. Considerable variation was observed between<br />
seedlings from this seed batch, in the absence or presence of colchicine treatment.<br />
<strong>Plant</strong>s varied in habit, size, flower colour (calyx and petals), peduncle length and<br />
spike length. This variation between lavenders grown from seed is recorded in the<br />
literature and is likely due to considerable crosspollination. Lavender varieties are<br />
therefore generally propagated vegetatively to maintain the phenotype. Over 100<br />
plants were grown from the above seed batch, including ones which had been treated<br />
with colchicine and control untreated plants. From these a small, compact plant with<br />
the deepest purple flowers of all of the plants was selected. This plant survived<br />
0.0078g/L of colchicine. This plant was subsequently propagated by cuttings and was<br />
designated C7/103 and named ‘Riverina Eunice’.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Seedling selection: the present variety of Prunus originated as a seedling selection<br />
grown at Oakville, NSW. In 1998 the applicant chose the present variety for<br />
propagation based on its desirable strong upright growth habit. Further observation<br />
and propagations onto plum rootstock have proven the desirable attribute of strong<br />
upright habit as being not only distinct but stable. Selection criteria: fastigate tree<br />
habit. Breeder: Vic John Ciccolella, Oakville, NSW.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Self-pollinated seedling: the breeder has created his own breeding environment by<br />
careful planting certain Grevillea hybrids in his garden beds. Not all Grevilleas are<br />
compatible. As soon as the new seedling was noticed the breeder checked the foliage<br />
for differences, growth habit, flower buds and their size. This particular seedling was<br />
most probably from ‘Majestic’, however it showed some differences from its seed<br />
parent in flower size and colour. Cuttings were taken from this seedling and grown<br />
for 3 generations. The characteristics of the new variety remained stable and uniform.<br />
Selection criteria: larger flower size, unique red colour. Breeder: Mervyn William<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Single plant selection: In 2001, 35 single plants selected from heterogenous breeding<br />
line (DBL326) by Dr Margaret Campbell. 2002: seed from selected plants sown in<br />
double rows at Shenton Park Field Station WA. Four of these lines were selected<br />
based on erucic acid profile, grain yield, seed colour consistency and earlier maturity.<br />
2003: selected lines sown in regional trials at Meckering and New Norcia WA. Two<br />
of these lines were selected for further testing and bulked at Medina Research Station<br />
WA in 1 ha plots under irrigation. Breeders seed was produced at Shenton Park in<br />
0.04 ha plots in parallel to bulk plots. Off types were removed and erucic acid levels<br />
checked. 2004: two lines sown in commercial size 50 ha plots at four regional<br />
locations in WA. One line (selection 21) was progressed based on selection criteria.<br />
Breeders seed produced at Shenton Park where off types were removed and erucic<br />
acid levels checked. 2005: Final selection (Selection 21) tested in regional trials by<br />
Western <strong>Australia</strong>n Agricultural Dept and herbicide tolerance trials conducted by<br />

Descriptor Hemp (Cannabis sativa) TG/Hemp (DRAFT).<br />
Period 2008-2009.<br />
Conditions Trial 1 (Autumn 2008): the trial was sown in a well prepared<br />
red ferrisol kraznozem on 28th Feb 2008. Growth conditions<br />
were not conducive for plant measurements as we<br />
subsequently discovered that the area had previously been<br />
band treated with diuron two years before planting, too soon<br />
for a sensitive crop like industrial hemp, and this made the<br />
trial quite variable. Also the autumn time of sowing meant<br />
maturity was earlier and less spread out than the normal<br />
spring planting time. Leaf measures and plant heights were<br />
affected by the short day length and differences were slight<br />
compared to a spring planting. Weeds were removed at a<br />
young age by hand throughout the trial period. Watering was<br />
by trickle irrigation and plants were never stressed for water.<br />
Pest and diseases were controlled as necessary with<br />
insecticides and fungicides before there was any damage.<br />
Trial Design Randomised factorial complete block with 4 replicates with<br />
100 plants per variety per replicate.<br />
Measurements For leaf 30 samples per replicate, for plant height 20 samples.<br />
RHS Chart - edition 2001.<br />
Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: the pollination was controlled to the extent that male plants<br />
were removed before anthesis from the maternal parent while several paternal parents<br />
of unknown origin to the applicant pollinated the maternal parent. The source F1<br />
hybrid seed coded ‘Guelph 3-64’ was imported through quarantine under licence from<br />
Mr Peter P. Dragla (now deceased), University of Guelph, Ridge Town College,<br />
Ontario, Canada in Dec, 2003. The breeding line ‘Guelph 3-64’ was from very late<br />
maturing parents under Canadian conditions (matured in 160 days from sowing). The<br />
F1 source seed and subsequent generations were then grown in isolation until final<br />
selection. Open pollination from individual plants selected for low THC content was<br />
carried out in the first three generations from the F1 source seed. Male plants were<br />
screened before anthesis, small males discarded and female plants screened for low<br />
THC content at half seed fill using an in-house colorimetric test. The Government<br />
analyst also monitored populations with a random 30 plant sample. Achenes of<br />
‘Tegege’ were tasted when semi-hard mature at F3 generation and tasted very good.<br />
‘Tegege’s fatty acid profile was determined by SGS Toowoomba, Queensland a<br />
NATA accredited laboratory. Bast fibre strength by breaking stalks was low for<br />
‘Tegege’. Bast fibre content was however high at 31% while ‘Carmen’ measured 30%<br />
bast fibre content and ‘Anka’ 18% bast in previous experiments. Seed yields of<br />
individual plants were recorded with the highest seed yielding plants retained that had<br />
low THC content. Final selections were taken at the F5 generation.<br />

Controlled pollination: the pollination was controlled to the extent that male plants were<br />

unknown origin to the applicant pollinated the maternal parent. The source F1 hybrid<br />
seed coded ‘Guelph 3-23’ was from very late maturing material (harvested 151 days from<br />

(whole stalk weighed and then bast fibre weighed and expressed as a percentage) after<br />
seed harvest. ‘Ruby’ measured 18% bast fibre content, while ‘Carmen’ measured 30%<br />
bast fibre content in previous experiments. Seed yields of individual plants are recorded<br />
with the highest yielding plants retained that have low THC content. Selection of grain<br />
types also involves taste tests at firm seed stage. Analysis of fatty acid content of good<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Open-pollination: during the 1996 blooming season Lowell Glen Bradford isolated an<br />
entire ‘Angeleno’ plum tree by covering it with a plastic covered house. He placed a<br />
hive of bees inside the house and brought various bouquets of plum, apricot and plumapricot<br />
interspecific trees to hybridize the ‘Angeleno’ plum tree. Upon completion of<br />
the bloom, the house and bees were removed and the resulting fruit was allowed to<br />
ripen. Upon maturity, the fruit was harvested and their seeds were germinated and<br />
grown as seedlings on their own roots in a greenhouse. Upon reaching dormancy the<br />
seedlings were transplanted to a cultivated area of the experimental orchard at<br />
Bradford Farms, Le Grand, California. The group of seedlings was labelled “House<br />
8”. During the 2000 evaluation season he selected the new variety as a single tree<br />
from the group of seedlings described above because it produced a heavy crop of firm<br />
fruit that was very sweet in flavour. The new variety exhibited several indications that<br />
it was itself an interspecific, such as pubescent skin, orange yellow flesh, and leaves<br />
that resembling apricots. Subsequent to origination of the new variety it was asexually<br />
reproduced and such reproduction of plant and fruit characteristics were true to the<br />
original in all respects. Breeder: Lowell G. Bradford, Le Grand, CA, USA.<br />

‘Angeleno’ ‘Sweetcot’ interspecific is similar to its seed parent, ‘Angeleno’ plum by being selfunfruitful<br />
and by producing fruit that is globose in shape, firm in texture and dark<br />
purple to black in skin colour, but is very distinguished from ‘Angeleno’ by having<br />
apricot type leaves and blossoms and by producing fruit that has pubescent skin, that is<br />
orange yellow in flesh colour and much sweeter in flavour and matures in mid season<br />
and not late season.<br />

Conditions <strong>Plant</strong>s were propagated from cuttings collected from the CSU<br />
lavender collection in Sep 2007. Cuttings were dipped in<br />
Clonex rooting hormone gel (3g/L Indole butyric acid) and<br />
placed in Debco seed raising mix. Cuttings were rooted on<br />
raised misting beds at 25 o C for 6 weeks. Rooted cuttings were<br />
transferred to Debco Terracotta and Tub potting mix and<br />
were grown in 9cm diameter pots. <strong>Plant</strong>s were transferred to<br />
same medium in 20cm diameter pots on the 1 Jan 2008.<br />
<strong>Plant</strong>s were fertilised and grown with daily watering either by<br />
hand or fixed overhead sprayers as required.<br />
Trial Design Ten plants of five varieties including the test variety,<br />
comparators and maternal parent were grown. Individual<br />
plants were numbered and they were arranged in a completely<br />
randomised block design (10 x 5 block).<br />
Measurements The trial was scored on 7 Nov 2008 and corolla colour was<br />
again scored 25 th November when more flowers had opened<br />
using an RHS colour chart. On examination of the trial the<br />
maternal parent ‘Meg’ and comparator ‘Derwent Grey’ were<br />
excluded on the basis of pronounced leaf indentation and<br />
pronounced leaf pubescence respectively.<br />
RHS Chart - edition Fifth .<br />
Origin and Breeding<br />
The maternal parent was a L. dentata var. candicans plant given to the breeder by<br />
Mrs. Meg Bilney from the <strong>Australia</strong>n Lavender Growers Association (TALGA). This<br />
plant had been growing in her garden for many years and was originally found on a<br />
roadside on the York peninsula. The plant is not of a known variety. It is L. dentata<br />
var. candicans and it was given the name ‘Meg’. This plant was placed in the lavender<br />
collection at Charles Sturt University in 2002 where it was allowed to be freely cross<br />
pollinated by other plants in the collection. Seed was collected from L. dentata ‘Meg’<br />
in 2003 and 160 seedlings were grown. <strong>Plant</strong>s were examined when they reached the<br />
stage of having 3 or 4 true sets of leaves. <strong>Plant</strong>s with reduced leaf margin indentations<br />
were selected and this indicated that these seedlings were of hybrid origin. Seedlings<br />
arising from self pollination or pollination by another L. dentata variety were easily<br />
identified by obvious and pronounced leaf margin indentations typical of L. dentata<br />
Page 247 of 550<br />
<strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong> Vol. 21 No.3
plants. Ten plants were selected with reduced leaf margin indentation (unlike L.<br />
dentata). Of these ten plants the majority looked similar to L. x heterophylla ‘Anzac<br />
Pride’ which is a sterile hybrid of L. dentata and L. latifolia. These seedlings had<br />
reduced leaf indentation, vigorous growth and grey green foliage. One of the plants<br />
had much more pronounced leaf margin indentation but not as much as L. dentata<br />
varieties including the maternal parent ‘Meg’. This differentiated the plant from the<br />
maternal parent and the other seedlings. The plant was propagated vegetatively and all<br />
plants derived from this single seedling were called Lavandula ‘Riverina James’. This<br />
plant has breeder’s codes of D2 and CSU100.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: ‘Nipper’ was derived from a crossing program between the<br />
Canadian forage lentil ‘Indianhead’ and ‘Northfield’ (‘Indianhead’/ ‘Northfield’//<br />
‘Northfield’). The final cross was made in 1995 (95-002L). ‘Nipper’ was selected as a<br />
single plant from an F3 bulk derived a single F1 plant. ‘Nipper’ was evaluated under<br />
the breeding names 95-002L*96G3-98H002 and C<strong>IP</strong>AL203. ‘Nipper’ was selected to<br />
replace the red lentil variety ‘Northfield’ in the more favourable medium rainfall lentil<br />
growing areas of <strong>Australia</strong>. ‘Nipper’ has a similar seed size and shape to ‘Northfield’<br />
for premium export markets but it has a grey seed coat suited to Indian subcontinent<br />
markets. ‘Nipper’ is mid to late flowering and like ‘Northfield’ is resistant to<br />
ascochyta blight and the exotic disease fusarium wilt. ‘Nipper’ has improved botrytis<br />
grey mould resistance derived from ‘Indianhead’ and improved tolerance to soil<br />
salinity. Breeder: Michael Materne, Department of Primary Industries, Horsham, VIC.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: ‘Boomer’ was derived from a cross (94-004) between the<br />
ICARDA line ILL5722, released in <strong>Australia</strong> as ‘Digger’, and the green lentil variety<br />
‘Palouse’ bred by Washington State University (‘Digger’/ ‘Palouse’). ‘Boomer’ is<br />
derived from a single plant selection made from an F4 bulk population sown at<br />
Rosebery, VIC in 1999 (94-004L*99RO35). ‘Boomer’ was selected for large green<br />
seed, increased plant height and early vigour and resistance to botrytis grey mould and<br />
ascochyta blight. ‘Boomer’ has a high yield potential across lentil production regions<br />
of <strong>Australia</strong>, similar to the best red lentil varieties. Breeder: Michael Materne,<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Leucadendron 'Wilfire' was selected from a seedling growing in a cultivated<br />
population of mixed Leucadendron species. The seedling resulted from natural<br />
pollination. The female parent is considered to be Leucadendron salignum and the<br />
male parent Leucadendron discolor. In October 2004, 60 cuttings were taken from the<br />
seedling. All resulting plants were true to form of the original propagation material.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: unnamed seed parent by unnamed pollen parent was crossed in<br />
1995. ‘Zanlorsanna’ is the result of the random crossing of the proprietary seedlings<br />
and this selection underwent testing from 1997 to 2003. All work conducted under<br />
greenhouse conditions. Selection criteria: vigorous growth, erect flowers, attractive<br />
flower colour, bud number per bulb size, and length of growth cycle. ‘Zanlorsanna’<br />
has been flowered for a minimum of three generations and proved genetically stable.<br />
Multiplication achieved by twin scaling of mature bulbs and in-vitro propagation.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Seedling selection: seed parent Liriope muscari. The seed parent is characterised by a<br />
broad leaf width, medium leaf thickness and medium shoot density. Approximately<br />
30,000 seedlings were grown in 1999. In 2001 4 plants were selected as having<br />
desirable traits including narrow leaf width and dense growth habit. Finally in 2002<br />
one of these plants was selected due to its narrow leaf width combined with purple<br />
flower colour and dense, compact growth habit. Selection took place in Clarendon,<br />
NSW. Selection criteria: narrow leaf width, purple flower colour, dense, compact<br />
growth habit. Propagation: vegetative, micropropagation and division is found to be<br />
uniform and stable. Breeder: Todd Layt, Clarendon, NSW.<br />

Seedling selection: seed parent ‘Big Blue’. The seed parent is characterised by a broad<br />
leaf width and a light violet coloured flower. Approximately 20,000 seedlings were<br />
grown in 2002 and then 600 grown on in the ground. In 2003 7 plants were selected as<br />
having desirable traits including narrow leaf width. Finally in 2005 one of these plants<br />
was selected due to its narrow leaf width combined with tall inflorescence height,<br />
purple flower colour and upright flowering habit. Selection took place in Clarendon,<br />
NSW. Selection criteria: narrow leaf width, tall inflorescence height, purple flower<br />
colour and upright flowering habit. Propagation: vegetative, micropropagation and<br />
division is found to be uniform and stable. Breeder: Todd Layt, Clarendon, NSW.<br />

Descriptor Lucerne (Medicago sativa) TG/6/5.<br />
Period 10 Sep 2006 – 30 May 2007.<br />
Conditions The spaced plants were raised as seedlings and transplanted<br />
into raised beds of alluvial black soil, with overhead<br />
irrigation. Pre-emergent herbicide was applied at the<br />
recommended rate prior to transplanting and seeding rows.<br />
Fungicide and herbicide treatments were applied as required<br />
during the trial.<br />
Trial Design Spaced plants in a randomised complete block design with 4<br />
replicates; each replicate comprising a row with 33 plants at<br />
0.5m spacing between plants, and 0.5m between rows. The<br />
seeded rows were in a 4 replicate design with 3m of row per<br />
replicate, establishing 200 seeds/m and 0.75m row spacings.<br />
Measurements 60 spaced plants per cultivar were measured for plant height 2<br />
weeks after the spring and autumn equinoxes, after being cut<br />
2 weeks before the equinoxes; plant height was also assessed<br />
at full flowering. Flower colour was determined on 60 spaced<br />
plants, using the terminology of Barnes (1972).<br />
RHS Chart - edition N/A<br />
Origin and Breeding<br />
In 2002, 60 clones of ‘Wisfal’ (Crop Science 33:217-218) were used as pollen parents<br />
in a polycross performed by hand, without vacuum emasculation. The pollen<br />
recipients were selected from the lucerne cultivars ‘Hunter River’, ‘Aquarius’, ‘UQL-<br />
1’, ‘Sequel HR’, ‘Hallmark’, ‘Rippa’ and ‘Sequel’ based on disease resistance and<br />
persistence after 3 years in the field. The resultant seed was bulked to give syn 1. The<br />
syn 1 seed was increased through another two generations in the field at Gatton<br />
without intentional selection pressure being applied. Seed from these generations is<br />
referred to as gen 1 and gen 2 for the DUS tests. Breeders: J.M. Mackie, D.J. Armour<br />
and J.A.G. Irwin, University of Queensland, Brisbane, QLD.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: The candidate cultivar was generated by closed pollination<br />
using hand pollination techniques (Bally et al. 2000) with ‘Irwin’ as the maternal<br />
parent and ‘Kensington Pride’ as the paternal (pollen) parent. Selection of the<br />
candidate from other progeny of this and other families was done at two sites:<br />
Southedge Research Station, Mareeba, QLD and Coastal plains Research Farm,<br />
Darwin, NT. The candidate cultivar was selected after comparative evaluation of tree<br />
and fruit characteristics over several seasons. Bally ISE, Kulkarni VJ, Johnson PR,<br />

Descriptor Mango (Mangifera indica) TG/112/4.<br />
Period 2000-2008.<br />
Conditions The field site has soil of the Morganbury sub-type of red<br />
kandosos with deep to very deep brown sandy loam to sandy<br />
clay grading to red apedial sandy clay loam to sandy clay,<br />
moderately acid to neutral (pH 5.8-7.5) and gravely. Scions of<br />
the candidate and comparator varieties were grafted onto<br />
polyembryonic ‘Kensington Pride’ seedling rootstocks and<br />
planted at 4 meters in the row and 7 meters between rows.<br />
Trial Design The comparative trial design was a randomised complete<br />
block design with five single tree replicates of the candidate,<br />
parents and comparator cultivars.<br />
Measurements 10-20 random measurements were made of each character<br />
assessed on each of the five single tree replicates.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: The candidate cultivar was generated by closed pollination<br />
using hand pollination techniques (Bally et al. 2000) with ‘Van Dyke’ as the maternal<br />
parent and ‘Kensington Pride’ as the paternal (pollen) parent. Selection of the<br />
candidate from other progeny of this and other families was done at two sites:<br />
Southedge Research Station, Mareeba, QLD and Coastal plains Research Farm,<br />
Darwin, NT. The candidate cultivar was selected after comparative evaluation of tree<br />
and fruit characteristics over several seasons - Bally ISE, Kulkarni VJ, Johnson PR,<br />

Trial Design 10 trees of the proposed variety and the comparator were<br />
planted at 1.5M x 5m tree spacing. Irrigation was applied and<br />
industry standard management practice was used.<br />
Measurements Observations of tree and fruit characteristics were made to<br />
confirm the variety is true to type and to see if there were any<br />
climatic or geographic variations.<br />
RHS Chart - edition N/A<br />
Origin and Breeding<br />
Open-pollination: during the spring and summer of 1997 Lowell Glen Bradford<br />
gathered fruit from several different unnamed seedlings in his experimental orchard at<br />
Le Grand, California. One particular group of nectarines were white in flesh colour,<br />
clingstone in type and sub-acid in flavour, and were thus designated as “WNC (OP)”<br />
The seeds from this fruit were removed, cracked, stratified, germinated and grown as<br />
seedlings on their own root in a greenhouse, and upon reaching dormancy were<br />
transplanted to a cultivated area in the experimental orchard described above. During<br />
the fruit evaluation season of 2000 Lowell Glen Bradford selected several nectarines<br />
that exhibited desirable qualities, and the present variety was selected as a single tree<br />
from the group of “WNC (OP)” described above. Subsequent to the selection of the<br />
new nectarine variety it was asexually reproduced by budding and grafting and such<br />
reproduction of plant and fruit characteristics was true to the original in all respects.<br />

‘June Pearl’ ‘Spring Pearl’(USPP 9360) nectarine is most similar to ‘June Pearl’ nectarine by<br />
producing fruit that is very firm in texture, sub-acid and sweet in flavour, clingstone<br />
and nearly full red in skin colour. But is distinguished by producing fruit that is more<br />
globose in shape, has virtually no protruding tips at the apex, is larger in size and<br />
matures about five days later.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: in 1995, the variety ‘Glider’ was control pollinated to the<br />
breeder’s line OX89;019-137. F2 seed of the cross was sown as populations at<br />
Kingsford Research Centre (near Gawler, SA) in 1996 and single heads selected. The<br />
F5 seed of these panicles was reselected in 1999 from stage 2 trials sown at Kingsford<br />
Research Centre due to maturity differences in the population. The reselected lines<br />
were again sown as populations over summer in 1999/2000 in the bird-proof enclosure<br />
at the Waite Institute, Urrbrae, SA and single heads selected. SV95137-6-3 was the<br />
third population from the sixth selection of the cross 95137. It was promoted to unreplicated<br />
trials in winter 2000 and to replicated trials in 2002. SV95137-6-3 was<br />
promoted to stage 4 replicated hay trials in 2003 and has remained in these trials since<br />
that time. Selection criteria: hay yield, maturity, disease resistance. Propagation: seed.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Cross pollination: the new and distinct variety of peach tree was developed by<br />
Zaiger’'s Inc. Genetics at their experimental orchard near Modesto, California as a<br />
first generation seedling. The seed was collected from a cross of two proprietary<br />
parents with the field identification numbers ‘174LE309’ as the seed parent and<br />
‘2LD470’ as the pollen parent. These seedlings were planted and observed growing on<br />
their own roots. The present variety displayed desirable fruiting characteristics and<br />
was chosen for asexual propagation and commercialisation. Breeder: Zaiger’s Inc.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: The variety was developed as a first generation cross using an<br />
unnamed white nectarine as the selected seed parent and an unnamed yellow fleshed<br />
peach as the selected pollen parent. The unnamed seed parent was a first generation<br />
cross of ‘Spring Bright’ nectarine by an unnamed white fleshed nectarine. The<br />
unnamed pollen parent was a first generation cross of ‘Spring Bright’ nectarine by an<br />
unnamed yellow peach. A single tree was selected from the stated cross and claimed<br />
as the new variety. Subsequent to the origination of the new variety it was asexually<br />
reproduced by budding and grafting and such reproduction of plant and fruit<br />
characteristics were true to the original in all respects. Breeder: Lowell G. Bradford,<br />

‘Ivory Princess’ ‘Ivory Duchess’ peach is most similar to ‘Ivory Princess’ peach by<br />
producing fruit that is clingstone in type, white in flesh colour, mostly red in<br />
skin colour, firm in texture, and sub-acid in flavour. It is distinguished from<br />
‘Ivory Princess’ by requiring less chilling hours and producing fruit that is<br />
about eight days earlier in maturity.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: seed parent line 99469F1 x pollen parent ‘Pima A8’ in a<br />
planned breeding program at the <strong>Australia</strong>n Cotton Research Institute (ACRI),<br />
Narrabri, NSW. The seed parent line 99469F1 is distinguished from ‘Sipima 280’ by<br />
its segregation for resistance to bacterial blight. The pollen parent ‘Pima A8’ is<br />
distinguished from ‘Sipima 280’ by its susceptibility to bacterial blight. Single plant<br />
selection followed by progeny row and multiple environment trials were carried out.<br />
Selection criteria: plant habit, resistance to bacterial blight, verticillium and Fusarium<br />
wilt, leaf hair, lint %, fibre quality and yield. Breeder: Dr Greg Constable, CSIRO,<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: maternal parent ‘Rooster’ and paternal parent ‘Ambo’ were<br />
manually crossed in 1996 at Oak Park Research Centre, Carlow, Ireland. True seed<br />
was used to raise individual tubers of the resultant genetically different progeny.<br />
Seedling T2637-12 selected after 12 years of clonal trials in the UK and Spain.<br />
Selection was based upon earliness, skin finish quality, disease resistance, yield and<br />
taste. The variety ‘Romeo’ was released in 2007. Breeder: Teagasc Oak Park<br />

Controlled pollination: Flower of maternal parent ‘Maris Piper’ emasculated and<br />
pollinated by pollen transferred from male parent DHS 70 1034 9. Berries harvested<br />
and seed extracted. Seeds grown under protected conditions and one minituber<br />
harvested from each plant (= genotype). Minitubers planted in a field trial representing<br />
several thousands of unique genotypes. Tubers harvested from selected genotypes (by<br />
eye selection for tuber size, shape, maturity time and disease freedom. Tubers planted<br />
of selected genotypes for more intensive selection. Replicated and multi-site<br />
evaluation and selection trials conducted in the United Kingdom in subsequent years<br />
culminating in the selection of this individual variety, Seedling AV1, for commercial<br />
release. Breeder: John Cockram, Malahide, Country Dublin, Ireland.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollnation: maternal parent ‘Famosa’ and paternal parent ‘Atlantic’ were<br />
manually crossed in 1992 at Oak Park Research Centre, Carlow, Ireland. True seed<br />
was used to raise individual tubers of the resultant genetically different progeny.<br />
Seedling T1544/6 selected after 12 years of clonal trials in the UK and Spain.<br />
Selection was based upon earliness, skin finish quality, disease resistance, yield and<br />
taste. The variety ‘Savanna’ was released in 2006. Breeder: Teagasc Oak Park<br />
Research Centre, Carlow, Ireland.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
A batch of 251 seeds collected from a population of Ptilotus nobilis initiated into<br />
tissue culture on 22 Mar 2004. ‘Purity’ was identified as vigorous in tissue culture on<br />
6 May 2004. After being maintained in tissue culture for approximately 20<br />
subcultures, plantlets were deflasked on 19 Apr 2005 and grown in the nursery.<br />
Evaluation of six mature specimens was conducted on 13 Jul 2006. ‘Purity’ was<br />
selected for good plant form (upright stems and multiple branching) and pure greencream<br />
inflorescence colour. Breeders: Margaret Johnston, Melinda Perkins, Dion<br />

were deflasked on 25 Jan 2006 and grown on in the nursery. Evaluation of six mature<br />
specimens was conducted on 29 Mar 2006. The selection was identified as having the<br />
following unique characteristics: upright plant form, high basal branching, numerous<br />
inflorescences, acutely tapered inflorescence shape, and mid-purple inflorescence<br />
colour. Further evaluation in tissue culture found the genotype could be consistently<br />
multiplied at a faster rate than other genotypes. Breeders: Margaret Johnston, Melinda<br />

Seed was derived from controlled pollination between cream-pink flowering genotypes<br />
obtained from a population of Ptilotus nobilis with brownish cream to brownish pink<br />
coloured inflorescences. The seed was initiated into tissue culture on 9 Nov 2004.<br />
Resulting seedlings were transferred to multiplication medium on 29 Nov 2004.<br />
Genotypes exhibiting vigorous growth and high multiplication rates were maintained in<br />
tissue culture. After approximately 10 subcultures, plantlets were deflasked on 4 May<br />
2005 and grown in the nursery. Evaluation of mature specimens was conducted on 13 Jul<br />
2005. Poise was selected on the basis of a unique and attractive two-toned inflorescence<br />
colour (cream to tan/pink) and upright plant form. Breeders: Margaret Johnston, Melinda<br />

Descriptor Raspberry (Rubus idaeus) TG/43/7.<br />
Period 1998-2005.<br />
Conditions Traditional cultural practices employ rooted cuttings planted<br />
into raised ridges of soil in winter, the plants are then trellised<br />
and primocane harvest commences approximately 7 months<br />
later in summer and autumn. At the end of the primocane<br />
harvest the plants are pruned and the floricane harvest<br />
commences in the following spring. Test plots for verification<br />
were planted in late winter 2007 at Stanthorpe and verified in<br />
2008.<br />
Trial Design After asexual propagation by in vitro shoot tip culture was<br />
used to produce root cuttings of ‘Estrella’ and ‘Heritage’<br />
which were compared in plots side by side under standard<br />
commercial raspberry production conditions.<br />
Measurements Measurements were taken of plant, flower and fruit<br />
characteristics approximately 7 months after planting for<br />
primocane production and approximately 17 months after<br />
planting for floricane production. All measurements were<br />
made in accordance with UPOV technical guidelines and<br />
colours are described and most similar colour designations are<br />
provided from Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Colour<br />
Charts.<br />
RHS Chart - edition 2001<br />
Origin and Breeding<br />
The new variety of raspberry ‘Estrella’ was developed from the hybridization of<br />
‘Q481.7’ (an unpatented variety) as the seed parent and ‘S826.3’ (an unpatented<br />
variety) as the pollen parent. In 1998 the parents were cross pollinated, and fruit and<br />
seed were collected to produce seedlings for selection in field planting in Watsonville,<br />
California USA. The variety ‘Estrella’ was selected for its yellow colour, productivity<br />
and flavour in 2000. ‘Estrella’ has been maintained for at least 6 generations in its<br />
present form by clonal reproduction without loss of distinctive characteristics.<br />

in the open and grown in a well structured loamy clay soil.<br />
Sound farm management practices ensured the plants grew to<br />
their full potential with minimum stress and under high health<br />
conditions. ‘Kortraste’ was budded in early summer onto well<br />
established 10 month-old Rosa multiflora rootstock.<br />
Trial Design<br />
Examination was conducted in mid-autumn 2008 on one and<br />
two year old budded plants growing in double rows along<br />
with other varieties of Kordes roses.<br />
Observations and measurements were taken from a minimum<br />
of ten plants, selected at random in mid autumn.<br />
Measurements Measurements made on terminal leaflet of first five-leaflet<br />
leaf down flower stem, flower diameter when first fully open,<br />
and sepal length excluding leafy extension if present.<br />
RHS Chart - edition 1986<br />
Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: in 1991 seed parent ‘The Fairy’ was crossed with pollen parent<br />
unnamed seedling. Hips produced remained on the bush until Oct (autumn) when<br />
harvested and shelled. The following year, seeds were planted under controlled<br />
greenhouse condition. Germination commenced in Feb, and the seedlings first<br />
bloomed in Apr (Northern Hemisphere). From this seedling population, the best were<br />
selected for further trials. After these trials, the seedling, now known as ‘Kortraste’,<br />
was selected for further evaluation. Budding eyes were taken in Jul 1992 and budded<br />
to root stock R. canina and planted out in the open. Multiplication and testing<br />
continued until 2002. ‘Kortraste’ was released in 2003. This new variety was<br />
multiplied in number by vegetative propagation over numerous generations.<br />
‘Kortraste’ has proved to be genetically stable. Selection criteria: improved garden<br />
rose variety. Breeding directed by William Kordes, of W.Kordes' Sohne Rosenschulen<br />

Descriptor TG/11/7.<br />
Period 2003.<br />
Conditions The comparative study was conducted at Portland (Latitude<br />
38.15S, Longitude 141.37E), VIC. The roses were maintained<br />
in the open and grown in a well structured loamy clay soil.<br />
Sound farm management practices ensured the plants grew to<br />
their full potential with minimum stress and under high health<br />
conditions. ‘Kormamtiza’ was budded in early summer onto<br />
well established 10 month-old Rosa multiflora rootstock.<br />
Examination was conducted in mid autumn 2008 on one and<br />
two year old budded plants growing in double rows along<br />
with other varieties of Kordes roses.<br />
Trial Design Observations and measurements were taken from a minimum<br />
of ten plants, selected at random in mid autumn.<br />
Measurements Measurements made on terminal leaflet on the first fiveleaflet<br />
leaf down the flower stem; flower diameter made when<br />
flower first fully open, and sepal length excludes the terminal<br />
leafy extension if present.<br />
RHS Chart - edition 1986<br />
Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: seed parent unnamed seedling (Roseromatica x Heckenfeuer),<br />
crossed with pollen parent ‘Taneitber’ in May 1993. Hips produced remained on bush<br />
until Oct (autumn) when harvested and shelled. Seeds planted under controlled<br />
greenhouse conditions: germination commenced in Feb 1994, and the seedlings first<br />
bloomed in May (Northern Hemisphere). From this seedling population, the best<br />
seedlings were selected for further trials. Budding eyes were taken in Jul 1994 and<br />
budded to understock of R. canina and planted in the open. From these the seedling,<br />
now known as ‘Kormamtiza’, was selected for further testing until 2002, and first<br />
sales were made in 2003. This new variety was multiplied in number by vegetative<br />
propagation, and has flowered for over five generations and appears to be genetically<br />
stable. Selection criteria: improved garden rose variety. Breeding directed by William<br />

Descriptor Rose (Rosa hybrid) TG/11/7.<br />
Period 2003.<br />
Conditions The comparative study was conducted at Portland (Latitude<br />
38.15S, Longitude 141.37E), VIC. The roses were maintained<br />
in the open and grown in a well structured loamy clay soil.<br />
Sound farm management practices ensured the plants grew to<br />
their full potential with minimum stress and under high health<br />
conditions. ‘Korstarnow’ was budded in early summer onto<br />
well established 10 month-old Rosa multiflora rootstock.<br />
Examination was conducted in mid autumn 2008 on one and<br />
two year old budded plants growing in double rows along<br />
with other varieties of Kordes roses.<br />
Trial Design Observations and measurements were taken from a minimum<br />
of ten plants, selected at random in mid autumn.<br />
Measurements Measurements made on terminal leaflet of first seven-leaflet<br />
leaf down flower stem, flower diameter when first fully open,<br />
and sepal length excluded leafy extension if present.<br />
RHS Chart - edition 1986<br />
Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: in May 1993 Seed parent unnamed seedling was crossed with<br />
pollen parent ‘Noaschnee’. Hips produced remained on bush until Oct (autumn) when<br />
harvested and shelled. In Feb 1994 seeds were planted under controlled greenhouse<br />
conditions: germination commenced in Feb, and seedlings first bloomed in Apr<br />
(Northern Hemisphere). Out of this seedling population, the best seedlings were<br />
selected for further trials. From these the seedling, now known as ‘Korstarnow’, was<br />
selected for further testing. This new variety was multiplied in number by vegetative<br />
propagation via shoot cuttings, flowered for over five generations and appeared<br />
genetically stable. Selection criteria: improved garden rose variety. Breeding directed<br />

propagated in McArthur, California USA and<br />
transported and held in refrigerated storage until<br />
planting in Hillsborough County, Florida USA for 3<br />
successive generations of asexual reproduction to<br />
confirm stability and uniformity of traits. <strong>Plant</strong>s<br />
were grown in raised beds of soil under conditions<br />
typical of commercial strawberry production in<br />
central Florida USA. Fruits were harvested twice<br />
weekly from November to March.<br />
Trial Design <strong>Plant</strong>s of ‘Driscoll Destin’, ‘Biscayne’ and ‘Key<br />
Largo’ were grown in side by side comparison in<br />
2003-2004 winter strawberry season in full sunlight.<br />
Measurements Detailed descriptions of the new variety ‘Driscoll<br />
Destin’ were based on observations taken of plants<br />
and fruit grown in Hillsborough County, Florida<br />
USA. This description is in accordance with UPOV<br />
guidelines and terminology. Colour designations,<br />
colour descriptions and other phenotypic<br />
descriptions may deviate from the stated values<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
Controlled pollination: The new variety ‘Driscoll Destin’ originated as a result of a<br />
controlled cross pollination between the strawberry plants ‘73D144’ (unpatented<br />
variety) seed parent and ‘88E94’ (unpatented variety) as pollen parent in an ongoing<br />
breeding program and was discovered as a seedling in Monterey County, California<br />
USA in 2000. The original seedling of the new variety was asexually propagated by<br />
stolons and transplanted in to a field in Monterey County, California USA where the<br />
variety was identified and selected for further evaluation. ‘Driscoll Destin’ was<br />
subsequently asexually propagated and tested in Hillsborough County Florida USA<br />
for three successive years. Breeder: Kristie L. Gilford (Dover, Florida USA), Bruce D.<br />
Mowrey (Watsonville, California USA), and JoAnne Cross (Salinas, California USA)<br />

Conditions Vines for comparative trial purposes were grown in pots<br />
under shadehouse conditions. Ampelographic data were<br />
collected from vines growing under vineyard conditions.<br />
Trial Design ‘Merbein 5489’ was compared with 14 other rootstock<br />
varieties or selections, viz. Borner (Vitis riparia x V. cinerea),<br />
‘Freedom’ [a complex multi-species hybrid (V. labrusca, V.<br />

194-1) and ‘M61-36’ (V. cinerea 55 x V. cinerea 194-1). The<br />
trial included three other Vitis rootstock varieties for which<br />
Part 1 PBR applications have been submitted. As a result, the<br />
comparators for these other varieties were also included and<br />
the data were analysed together. Vines were propagated from<br />
dormant cuttings collected during winter 2005. They were<br />
struck in a sand/perlite mix in a cold mist house over bottom<br />
heat. Rooted cuttings were potted into a standard potting mix<br />
and transferred to a shadehouse in 12l pots. The vines were<br />
allowed to grow as single shoots by removing lateral shoots<br />
as they developed. When shoots had grown to a length<br />
exceeding 1m, they were pruned to two buds and the<br />
youngest bud was allowed to develop. The vines were again<br />
allowed to grow as single shoots by removing lateral buds as<br />
they developed. When shoots had reached a length exceeding<br />
1.5m, they were again pruned and leaves at nodes 5-10<br />
retained for measurements to be recorded. There were 14<br />
comparator varieties with 15 vines per variety. The trial was<br />
laid out as a randomised block design with one replicate vine<br />

Measurements Ampelographic data following the descriptors provided by<br />
UPOV TG/50/8 Grapevine (Vitis L.) were recorded for vines<br />
grown under vineyard conditions as well as for those grown<br />
in the pot trial. Leaf measurements were recorded for vines<br />
grown in the pot trial. Leaf lamina length (L1) was recorded<br />
from the point at which the petiole attached to the mid-apex<br />
of the leaf. Similar measurements were made between the<br />
point at which the lamina attached to the apices of the other<br />
lobes (L2, L3, R2 and R3). Leaf widths were also recorded<br />
between the two proximal (R3 and L3) and the two distal (R2<br />
and L2) lobes. Petiole length was also recorded. These<br />
measurements were used to calculate a number of ratios.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
A series of controlled crosses was devised by CSIRO vine breeder Dr. A. J. Antcliff<br />
(deceased) to re-combine the characteristics of American Vitis species for selection<br />
under <strong>Australia</strong>n conditions. The crosses, which involved many different species<br />
combined either through inter- or intra-specific hybridisations, were conducted in<br />
1967 at the University of Illinois by Dr. H. C. Barrett, who was an employee of<br />
CSIRO and acted under the direction of Dr. Antcliff. Merbein 5489 was selected from<br />
a cross made between V. berlandieri Ressequier No. 1 (female parent) x V. berlandieri<br />
7651 (male parent). The seeds from the crosses were introduced to <strong>Australia</strong> in 1967<br />
and germinated at CSIRO <strong>Plant</strong> Industry’s laboratories at Merbein in NW Victoria.<br />
Emergent seedlings were rowed out in progeny groups in the experimental vineyard at<br />
CSIRO Merbein in 1968 and trained to a single wire trellis. These seedlings have been<br />
maintained using standard viticultural practices. The progeny from which ‘Merbein<br />
5489’ was selected was screened for a range of essential and desirable rootstock<br />
characteristics under the direction of Dr. Ernst Ruhl and Mr. Peter Clingeleffer,<br />
former and current employees of CSIRO <strong>Plant</strong> Industry, respectively. Based on its<br />
nursery and propagation characteristics, which were measured using dormant cuttings<br />
taken from the original seedling, coupled with the mineral status of its shoot tissues<br />
measured over several seasons, ‘Merbein 5489’ was multiplied via dormant cuttings in<br />
1988. Rootlings, produced from dormant cuttings propagated under mist over bottom<br />
heated beds, were grafted with V. vinifera cv. Shiraz scions for further screening as a<br />
rootstock in a replicated trial conducted at CSIRO’s Koorlong property in NW<br />
Victoria from 1989 until present. Under the supervision of Mr Peter Clingeleffer, vine<br />
performance and winemaking data were collected and analysed for this trial from<br />
1995 until 2003. These data, along with additional information concerning its<br />
nematode and Phylloxera tolerance collected under the guidance of Dr Steve Sykes<br />
(CSIRO <strong>Plant</strong> Industry) and Dr Kevin Powell (DPI Victoria), respectively, were used<br />
to select ‘Merbein 5489’ as a potential new rootstock for the wine industry. ‘Merbein<br />
5489’ was selected because of: its very high rate of propagation by rooting dormant<br />
cuttings; its graft compatibility with a major wine grape variety, viz. V. vinifera cv.<br />
Shiraz; its tolerance to both the Rutherglen and King Valley strains of Phylloxera; its<br />
ability to withstand infestation by three biotypes of root-knot nematode, viz.<br />
Meloidogyne incognita, M. javanica (a) and M. javanica (b); its ability to regulate<br />
potassium uptake into Shiraz berries such that optimum levels were attained for<br />
premium winemaking; its ability to impart an appropriate level of vigour in Shiraz<br />
scions matched by yield and fruit quality which are reflected in juice and wine quality;<br />
its ability to impart good oenological characteristics to Shiraz grapes such that wine<br />
quality in terms of colour density, total anthocyanins and total phenolics exceeded<br />
those imparted by ‘1103 Paulsen’ and ‘Ramsey’ rootstocks, which are commonly used<br />

heated beds, were grafted with V. vinifera cv. Shiraz scions for further screening as a<br />
rootstock in a replicated trial conducted at CSIRO’s Koorlong property in NW Victoria<br />
from 1989 until present. Under the supervision of Mr Peter Clingeleffer, vine performance<br />
and winemaking data were collected and analysed for this trial from 1995 until 2003. These<br />
data, along with additional information concerning its nematode and Phylloxera tolerance<br />
collected under the guidance of Dr Steve Sykes (CSIRO <strong>Plant</strong> Industry) and Dr Kevin<br />
Powell (DPI Victoria), respectively, were used to select ‘Merbein 5512’ as a potential new<br />
rootstock for the wine industry. ‘Merbein 5512’ was selected because of: its very high rate<br />
of propagation by rooting dormant cuttings; its graft compatibility with a major wine grape<br />
variety, viz. V. vinifera cv. Shiraz; its tolerance to both the Rutherglen and King Valley<br />
strains of Phylloxera; its ability to withstand infestation by three biotypes of root-knot<br />
nematode, viz. Meloidogyne incognita, M. javanica (a) and M. javanica (b); its ability to<br />
regulate potassium uptake into Shiraz berries such that optimum levels were attained for<br />
premium winemaking; its ability to impart an appropriate level of vigour in Shiraz scions<br />
matched by yield and fruit quality which are reflected in juice and wine quality; its ability<br />
to impart good oenological characteristics to Shiraz grapes such that wine quality in terms<br />
of colour density, total anthocyanins and total phenolics exceeded those imparted by 1103<br />
Paulsen and Ramsey rootstocks, which are commonly used industry standards. To date, no<br />
off-types have been observed following vegetative propagation of ‘Merbein 5512’.<br />

Details of Comparative Trial<br />
Location Merbein, VIC.<br />
Descriptor Grapevine (Vitis) TG/50/8.<br />
Period 2005-2006.<br />
Conditions Vines for comparative trial purposes were grown in pots<br />
under shadehouse conditions. Ampelographic data were also<br />
collected from vines growing under vineyard conditions.<br />
Trial Design ‘Merbein 6262’ was compared with 14 other rootstock<br />
varieties or selections, viz. ‘Borner’ (V. riparia x V. cinerea),<br />
‘Freedom’ [a complex multi-species hybrid (V. labrusca, V.<br />
riparia, V. vinifera) complex hybrid) x (V. rupestris x V.<br />
candicans)], ‘41B’ (V. vinifera Cv. Chasselas x V.<br />
berlandieri), ‘125AA Kober’ (V. berlandieri x V. riparia),<br />
‘5C Teleki’ (V. berlandieri x V. riparia), ‘K48-38 Lider’ [V.<br />
rupestris x V. candicans (aka Vitis champini) x V. vinifera Cv.<br />
Sultanina], ‘K48-45 Lider’ [V. rupestris x V. candicans (aka<br />

[V. rupestris x V. candicans (aka Vitis champini) x V. vinifera<br />
Cv. Sultanina], ‘Cosmos 10A’ (V. berlandieri x V. riparia),<br />
‘Dogridge’ [V. rupestris x V. candicans (aka Vitis champini)],<br />
CSIRO selections ‘Merbein 5489’ (V. berlandieri Ressequier<br />
No. 1 x V. berlandieri 7651), ‘Merbein 5512’ (V. berlandieri<br />
Ressequier No. 1 x V. berlandieri Mazade), ‘M61-19’ (V.<br />
cinerea 55 x V. cinerea 194-1) and ‘M61-36’ (V. cinerea 55 x<br />
V. cinerea 194-1). The trial included three other Vitis<br />
rootstock varieties for which Part 1 PBR applications have<br />
been submitted. As a result, the comparators for these other<br />
varieties were also included and the data were analysed<br />
together. Vines were propagated from dormant cuttings<br />
collected during winter 2005. They were struck in a<br />
sand/perlite mix in a cold mist house over bottom heat.<br />
Rooted cuttings were potted into a standard potting mix and<br />
transferred to a shadehouse in 12l pots. The vines were<br />
allowed to grow as single shoots by removing lateral shoots<br />
as they developed. When shoots had grown to a length<br />
exceeding 1m, they were pruned to two buds and the<br />
youngest bud was allowed to develop. The vines were again<br />
allowed to grow as single shoots by removing lateral buds as<br />
they developed. When shoots had reached a length exceeding<br />
1.5m, they were again pruned and leaves at nodes 5-10<br />
retained for measurements to be recorded. There were 14<br />
comparator varieties with 15 vines per variety. The trial was<br />
Page 478 of 550<br />
<strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong> Vol. 21 No.3
laid out as a randomised block design with one replicate vine<br />
per variety per block.<br />
Measurements Ampelographic data following the descriptors provided by<br />
UPOV TG/50/8 Grapevine (Vitis L.) were recorded for vines<br />
grown under vineyard conditions as well as for those grown<br />
in the pot trial. Leaf measurements were recorded for vines<br />
grown in the pot trial. Leaf lamina length (L1) was recorded<br />
from the point at which the petiole attached to the mid-apex<br />
of the leaf. Similar measurements were made between the<br />
point at which the lamina attached to the apices of the other<br />
lobes (L2, L3, R2 and R3). Leaf widths were also recorded<br />
between the two proximal (R3 and L3) and the two distal (R2<br />
and L2) lobes. Petiole length was also recorded. These<br />
measurements were used to calculate a number of ratios.<br />

Origin and Breeding<br />
A series of controlled crosses was devised by CSIRO vine breeder Dr. A. J. Antcliff<br />
(deceased) to re-combine the characteristics of American Vitis species for selection<br />
under <strong>Australia</strong>n conditions. The crosses, which involved many different species<br />
combined either through inter- or intra-specific hybridisations, were conducted in<br />
1967 at the University of Illinois by Dr. H. C. Barrett, who was an employee of<br />
CSIRO and acted under the direction of Dr. Antcliff. ‘Merbein 6262’ was selected<br />
from a cross made between V. cinerea 55 (female parent) x V. cinerea 194-1 (male<br />
parent). The seeds from the crosses were introduced to <strong>Australia</strong> in 1967 and<br />
germinated at CSIRO <strong>Plant</strong> Industry’s laboratories at Merbein in NW Victoria.<br />
Emergent seedlings were rowed out in progeny groups in the experimental vineyard at<br />
CSIRO Merbein in 1968 and trained to a single wire trellis. These seedlings have been<br />
maintained using standard viticultural practices. The progeny from which ‘Merbein<br />
6262’ was selected was screened for a range of essential and desirable rootstock<br />
characteristics under the direction of Dr. Ernst Ruhl and Mr. Peter Clingeleffer,<br />
former and current employees of CSIRO <strong>Plant</strong> Industry, respectively. Based on its<br />
nursery and propagation characteristics, which were measured using dormant cuttings<br />
taken from the original seedling, coupled with the mineral status of its shoot tissues<br />
measured over several seasons, ‘Merbein 6262’ was multiplied via dormant cuttings in<br />
1988. Rootlings, produced from dormant cuttings propagated under mist over bottom<br />
heated beds, were grafted with V. vinifera cv. Shiraz scions for further screening as a<br />
rootstock in a replicated trial conducted at CSIRO’s Koorlong property in NW<br />
Victoria from 1989 until present. Under the supervision of Mr Peter Clingeleffer, vine<br />
performance and winemaking data were collected and analysed for this trial from<br />
1995 until 2003. These data, along with additional information concerning its<br />
nematode and Phylloxera tolerance collected under the guidance of Dr Steve Sykes<br />
(CSIRO <strong>Plant</strong> Industry) and Dr Kevin Powell (DPI Victoria), respectively, were used<br />
to select ‘Merbein 6262’ as a potential new rootstock for the wine industry. ‘Merbein<br />
6262’ was selected because of: its very high rate of propagation by rooting dormant<br />
cuttings; its graft compatibility with a major wine grape variety, viz. V. vinifera cv.<br />
Shiraz; its tolerance to both the Rutherglen and King Valley strains of Phylloxera; its<br />
ability to withstand infestation by three biotypes of root-knot nematode, viz.<br />
Meloidogyne incognita, M. javanica (a) and M. javanica (b); its ability to regulate<br />
potassium uptake into Shiraz berries such that optimum levels were attained for<br />
premium winemaking; its ability to impart an appropriate level of vigour in Shiraz<br />
scions matched by yield and fruit quality which are reflected in juice and wine quality;<br />
its ability to impart good oenological characteristics to Shiraz grapes such that wine<br />

Controlled pollination: development of material followed by pedigree selection. The<br />
early cycles of pedigree selection (F1-F3) included seedling and adult plant selection<br />
for disease resistance. Subsequent further selection for disease resistance (F3-F7)<br />
coupled with selection for agronomic plant type, grain quality and grain yield were<br />
undertaken. Final evaluation for yield, quality and disease resistance was conducted<br />
by agencies involved in the Northern Wheat improvement program. Breeder: The<br />

Controlled pollination: The final cross was made in 1995 at the QDPI Leslie Research<br />
Centre, Toowoomba. Initial cycles of single plant selection for yellow leaf spot<br />
tolerance were conducted at Leslie Research Centre. Subsequent selections (F4-F7)<br />
for rust resistance, agronomic type, grain quality and grain yield were undertaken at<br />
PBI Cobbitty and PBI Narrabri. Further testing in northern NSW and QLD for grain<br />
yield, end-use quality and disease resistance was conducted up to 1995, followed by<br />
AGT national and NVT evaluation experiments. Breeder: The University of Sydney,<br />

‘Jel01’<br />
Application No: 2005/063<br />
<strong>Journal</strong> Reference: PVJ20.4<br />
The Origin and Breeding section for Cordyline australis ‘Jel01’ (App. No: 2005/063)<br />
published in PVJ 20.4 should read as follows:<br />
Open pollination: Cordyline australis ‘Jel01’ was selected in Otaki, New Zealand as a<br />
seedling selection from a wild population of Cordyline australis ‘Purpurea’, by Geoff<br />
Jewell. The new variety was selected from amongst thousands of seedlings that had<br />
been cultivated from seeds collected in the wild. Selection criteria: upright growth<br />
habit, foliage colour. Propagation: all future generations have been propagated by<br />
tissue culture, and have remained true to type with no recordings of variation from the<br />
initial selection. Breeder: All work has been conducted by Geoff Jewell, settlement<br />
Road, Otaki, New Zealand.<br />

APPENDIX 1<br />
FEES<br />
Two fee structures exist as a result of the transition from <strong>Plant</strong> <strong>Variety</strong> Rights to <strong>Plant</strong> Breeders Rights.<br />
For new applications (those lodged on or after 11 November 1994) the PBR fees apply. For older<br />
applications lodged before 11 November 1994 and not finally disposed of (Granted, Withdrawn,<br />
Refused etc.) the PVR fees in force at the time apply.<br />
The Treasurer has determined that all statutory fees under PBR regulations will be exempted from<br />
GST.<br />
Payment of Fees<br />
All cheques for fees should be made payable and sent to:<br />
Collector of Public Monies<br />
C/-<strong>Plant</strong> Breeders Rights Office, <strong>IP</strong> <strong>Australia</strong><br />
GPO Box 200<br />
Woden, ACT 2606<br />
The application fee ($300) must accompany the application at the time of lodgement.<br />
Consequences of not paying fees when due<br />
Application fee<br />
Should an application not be accompanied by the prescribed application fee the application will be<br />
deemed to be ‘non-valid’ and neither assigned an application number nor examined for acceptance<br />
pending the payment of the fee.<br />
Examination fee<br />
Non-payment of the examination fee of an application will automatically result, at the end of 12<br />
months from the date of acceptance 1 , in a refusal of the application. The consequences of refusal are<br />
the same as for applications deemed to be inactive (see ‘inactive applications’ below).<br />
Consideration of a request for an extension of the period of provisional protection from the initial 12month<br />
period may require the prior payment of the examination fee.<br />
Certificate fee<br />
Following the successful completion of the examination, including the public notice period, the<br />
applicant will be required and invoiced to pay the certification fee. Payment of the certification fee is a<br />
prerequisite to granting PBR and issuing the official certificate by the PBR office. Failure to pay the<br />
fee may result in a refusal to grant PBR.<br />
Annual fee<br />
Should an annual renewal fee not be paid within 30 days after the due date, the grant of PBR will be<br />
revoked under Section 50 of the PBR Act. To assist grantees, the PBR office will invoice grantees or<br />
their <strong>Australia</strong>n agents for renewal fees.<br />
Inactive applications<br />
An application will be deemed inactive if, after 24 months of provisional protection (or 12 months in<br />
the case of non-payment of the examination fee) the PBR Office has not received a completed<br />
application or has not been advised to proceed with the examination or an extension of provisional<br />
protection has not been requested or not granted or a certificate fee has not been paid. Inactive<br />
applications will be examined and, should they not fully comply with Section 44 of the PBR Act 1994,<br />
they will be refused. As a result provisional protection will lapse, priority claims on that variety will be<br />
1 The time limit to pay examination fees on imported varieties can be deferred for a maximum of 12<br />
months after the variety has been released from quarantine. Contact the PBR Office for further details.<br />
Page 515 of 550<br />
<strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong> Vol. 21 No.3
lost and should the variety have been sold, it will be ineligible for plant breeders rights on<br />
reapplication. Continued use of labels or any other means to falsely imply that a variety is protected<br />
after the application has been refused is an offence under Section 75 of the Act.<br />

APPENDIX 3 - INDEX OF ACCREDITED CONSULTANT ‘QUALIFIED PERSONS’<br />
The following persons have been accredited by the PBR office based on information provided by these persons. From<br />
the information provided by the applicants, the PBR office believes that these people can fulfil the role of ‘qualified<br />
person’ in the application for plant breeder’s rights. Neither accreditation nor publication of a name in the list of persons<br />
is an implicit recommendation of the person so listed. The PBR office cannot be held liable for damages that may arise<br />
from the omission or inclusion of a person’s name in the list nor does it assume any responsibility for losses or damages<br />
arising from agreements entered into between applicants and any person in the list of accredited persons. Qualified<br />
persons charge a fee for services rendered.<br />
A guide to the use of the index of consultants:<br />
• locate in the left column of Table 1 the plant group for which you are applying;<br />
• listed in the right column are the names of accredited qualified persons from which you can choose a consultant;<br />
• in Table 2 find that consultant’s name, telephone number and area in which they are willing to consult (they may<br />
consult outside the nominated area);<br />
• using the “Nomination of Qualified Person” form as a guide, agree provisionally on the scope and terms of the<br />
consultancy; complete the form and attach it to Part 1 of the application form;<br />
• when you are notified that your nomination of a consultant qualified person is acceptable in the letter of acceptance<br />
of your application for PBR you should again consult the qualified person when planning the rest of the application<br />
for PBR.<br />

APPENDIX 6<br />
CENTRALISED TESTING CENTRES<br />
Under <strong>Plant</strong> Breeder’s Rights Regulations introduced in 1996, establishments may be officially authorised by<br />
the PBR office to conduct test growings. An authorised establishment will be known as Centralised Test Centre<br />
(CTC).<br />
Usually, the implementation of PBR in <strong>Australia</strong> relies on a ‘breeder testing’ system in which the applicant, in<br />
conjunction with a nominated Qualified Person (QP), establishes, conducts and reports a comparative trial. More<br />
often than not, trials by several breeders are being conducted concurrently at different sites. This makes valid<br />
comparisons difficult and often results in costly duplication.<br />
While the current system is and will remain satisfactory, other optional testing methods are now available which<br />
will add flexibility to the PBR process.<br />
Centralised Testing is one such optional system. It is based upon the authorisation of private or public<br />
establishments to test one or more genera of plants. Applicants can choose to submit their varieties for testing by<br />
a CTC or continue to do the test themselves. Remember, using a CTC to test your variety is voluntary.<br />
The use of CTCs recognises the advantages of testing a larger number of candidate varieties (with a larger<br />
number of comparators) in a single comprehensive trial. Not only is there an increase in scientific rigour but also<br />
there are substantial economies of scale and commensurate cost savings. A CTC will establish, conduct and<br />
report each trial on behalf of the applicant.<br />
The PBR office has amended its fees so that cost savings can be passed to applicants who choose to test their<br />
varieties in a CTC. Accordingly, when 5 or more candidate varieties of the same genus are tested<br />
simultaneously, each will qualify for the CTC examination fee of $800. This is a saving of nearly 40% over the<br />
normal fee of $1400.<br />
Trials containing less than 5 candidate varieties capable of being examined simultaneously will not be<br />
considered as Centralised test trials regardless of the authorisation of the facility. Candidate varieties in nonqualifying<br />
small trials will not qualify for CTC reduction of examination fees.<br />
Establishments wishing to be authorised as a CTC may apply in writing to the PBR office outlining their claims<br />
against the selection criteria. Initially, only one CTC will be authorised for each genus. Exemptions to this rule<br />
can be claimed due to special circumstances, industry needs and quarantine regulations. Authorisations will be<br />
reviewed periodically.<br />
Authorisation of CTCs is not aimed solely at large research institutions. Smaller establishments with appropriate<br />
facilities and experience can also apply for CTC status. There is no cost for authorisation as a CTC.<br />
APPLICATIONS FOR AUTHORISATION AS A ‘CENTRALISED TESTING CENTRE’<br />
Establishments interested in gaining authorisation as a Centralised Testing Centre should apply in writing<br />
addressing each of the Conditions and Selection Criteria outlined below.<br />
Conditions and Selection Criteria<br />
To be authorised as a CTC, the following conditions and criteria will need to be met:<br />
<strong>Plant</strong> Varieties <strong>Journal</strong> Vol. 21 No.3<br />
Appropriate facilities<br />
While in part determined by the genera being tested, all establishments must have facilities that allow the<br />
conduct and completion of moderate to large-scale scientific experiments without undue environmental<br />
influences. Again dependent on genera, a range of complementary testing and propagation facilities (e.g.<br />
outdoor, glasshouse, shadehouse, tissue culture stations) is desirable.<br />
Experienced staff<br />
Adequately trained staff, and access to appropriately accredited Qualified Persons, with a history of successful<br />
PVR/PBR applications will need to be available for all stages of the trial from planting to the presentation of the<br />
Page 542 of 550
analysed data. These staff will require the authority to ensure timely maintenance of the trial. Where provided by<br />
the PBR office, the protocol and technical guidelines for the conduct of the trial must be followed.<br />
Substantial industry support<br />
Normally the establishment will be recognised by a state or national industry society or association. This may<br />
include/be replaced by a written commitment from major nurseries or other applicants, who have a history of<br />
regularly making applications for PBR in <strong>Australia</strong>, to use the facility.<br />
Capability for long-term storage of genetic material<br />
Depending upon the genus, a CTC must be in a position to make a long-term commitment to collect and<br />
maintain, at minimal cost, genetic resources of vegetatively propagated species as a source of comparative<br />
varieties. Applicants indicating a willingness to act as a national genetic resource centre in perpetuity will be<br />
favoured.<br />
Contract testing for 3rd Parties<br />
Unless exempted in writing by the PBR office operators of a CTC must be prepared to test varieties submitted<br />
by a third party.<br />
Relationship between CTC and 3rd Parties<br />
A formal arrangement between the CTC and any third party including fees for service will need to be prepared<br />
and signed before the commencement of the trial. It will include among other things: how the plant material will<br />
be delivered (e.g. date, stage of development plant, condition etc); allow the applicant and/or their agent and QP<br />
access to the site during normal working hours; and release the use of all trial data to the owners of the varieties<br />
included in the trial.<br />
One trial at a time<br />
Unless exempted in writing by the PBR office, all candidates and comparators should be tested in a single trial.<br />
One CTC per genus<br />
Normally only one CTC will be authorised to test a genus. Special circumstances may exist (environmental<br />
factors, quarantine etc) to allow more than one CTC per genus, though a special case will need to be made to the<br />
PBR office. More than one CTC maybe allowed for roses.<br />
One CTC may be authorised to test more than one genus.<br />
Authorisations for each genus will be reviewed periodically.<br />
Authorised Centralised Test Centres (CTCs)<br />
Following publication of applications for accreditation and ensuing public comment, the following<br />

APPENDIX 7 List of Classes for <strong>Variety</strong> Denomination Purposes<br />
UPOV <strong>Variety</strong> Denomination Classes: (UPOV/INF/12/1: ANNEX I )<br />
A <strong>Variety</strong> Denomination Should not be Used More than Once in the Same Class<br />
For the purposes of providing guidance on the third and fourth sentences of paragraph 2 of<br />
Article 20 of the 1991 Act and of Article 13 of the 1978 Act and the 1961 Convention, variety<br />
denomination classes have been developed. A variety denomination should not be used more<br />
than once in the same class. The classes have been developed such that the botanical taxa<br />
within the same class are considered to be closely related and/or liable to mislead or to cause<br />
confusion concerning the identity of the variety.<br />
The variety denomination classes are as follows:<br />
(a) General Rule (one genus / one class): for genera and species not covered by the<br />
List of Classes in this Annex, a genus is considered to be a class;<br />
Part II.<br />
(b) Exceptions to the General Rule (list of classes):<br />
(i) classes within a genus: List of classes in this Annex: Part I;<br />
(ii) classes encompassing more than one genus: List of classes in this Annex:<br />
