Felton, Grimwade and Bickford Pty Ltd will collaborate with us to develop plant material and methods for establishing profitable plantations of blue mallee (Eucalyptus polybractea) for eucalyptus oil production. This is important because, as a result of recent legislation, the forest patches currently used in oil production will soon be unavailable to the company. We will also investigate the physiological and biochemical mechanisms underlying oil quality and quantity in blue mallee. This knowledge will assist the industry in the longer term by allowing them to improve and modify their products in response to changes in market demands.

Felton、Grimwade 和 Bickford Pty Ltd 将与我们合作开发植物材料和方法，以建立有利可图的蓝桉（Eucalyptus polybractea）种植园来生产桉树油。 这一点很重要，因为根据最近的立法，该公司很快将无法使用目前用于石油生产的森林斑块。 我们还将研究蓝桉中油脂质量和数量的生理和生化机制。 从长远来看，这些知识将使行业能够改进和修改其产品以响应市场需求的变化，从而为该行业提供帮助。
