Abstract

In Australia, only prospective seedbeds are routinely screened for ratoon stunting disease (RSD). As seedbeds
may reasonably be considered to be the healthiest cane available to a grower, it may be expected that there would
be a higher incidence of RSD in commercial fields. The novel RSD diagnostic, LSB-PCR, was used to screen 154 grower
seedbeds during the 2015 seedbed inspections, in addition to 24 fields that were nominated for plough-out, and 15
fields that were being assessed as part of harvest best-practice trials. While the disease was detected in 10 (6.5%)
grower seedbeds, it was found in 6 (25%) plough-out fields and 5 (33%) harvest best-practice trial fields. The overall
28.2% RSD incidence in the 39 commercial fields screened is statistically significantly higher than the incidence
observed in 154 seedbed inspections (p=0.0001). This paper discusses the role of possible sampling bias, sampling
strategy and diagnostic technique employed in determining the incidence and impact of RSD in the Australian sugar
industry, in addition to improvements in RSD management at Harwood.
