Magazine Design Brief

Each year our esteemed research group (based at Murdoch University in Western Australia) compiles and prints an annual report of all our research outcomes. A copy of the report is given to our research partners, collaborators and investors. We would like to have a cover and back page designed for the annual report that is professional, eye-catching and visually appealing, containing appropriate photographs. The colour scheme is green. I can provide high resolution photographs for the selected design.

A bit of background: Since its inception in 1997, the Centre for Rhizobium Studies (CRS) has become an internationally recognised hub for research and training in the science of the root nodule bacteria. These organisms are unique in their ability to convert atmospheric nitrogen to plant-available nitrogen by forming symbiotic associations with legumes. In farming systems, this biological nitrogen fixation allows for inputs of nitrogen without the need for using energy-expensive and CO2-producing industrially synthesised fertilisers.

A key focus of the research at the CRS is the application of root nodule bacteria to legumes in agriculture, and to identify and solve problems which compromise nitrogen fixation. This involves understanding and integrating root nodule bacterial ecology, physiology, molecular genetics and symbiotic capacity. In addition, researchers at the CRS are working to identify, characterise and describe new root nodule bacteria from Australia and all over the world.
