Australia Prize

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Australia Prize

Annual award 1990–99 for achievement internationally in science and technology. It was replaced in 2000 by the Prime Minister's Prizes for Science.

The first winners were Allen Kerr of Adelaide University, Australia; Eugene Nester of Washington University, Seattle, USA; and Jeff Schell of the Max Planck Institute in Cologne, Germany. Their studies of the genetic systems of the crown-gall bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens led to the creation of genetically engineered plants resistant to herbicides, pests, and viruses.
