| Dorothy joined NSW Agriculture in 1965 as a technical officer in
training in the Biology Branch of the Biological and Chemical Research Institute,
Rydalmere (BCRI). She graduated from Sydney Technical College in 1967 and, for 11 years,
worked in soil microbiology as a Technical Officer. Following a number of years raising a
family, Dorothy rejoined BCRI and worked in a number of different areas including
composting, molecular biology and bacteriology. In 1997, Dorothy spent a year at Macquarie
University working on identification of bacterial diseases of plants for NSW Agriculture
before joining the Organic Waste Recycling Unit at Richmond in Sydney's west. In 2000,
Dorothy and the bacteriology collections were moved to Orange to join ASCU. Here Dorothy
is responsible for identification of plant bacterial diseases and curating the living
bacterial culture collections. She is now Australia's leading plant bacterial
diagnostician. |
