The characterization of vacuolar pyrophosphatase expression in sugarcane

Swart, Johannes Cornelius (Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2005-03)

Vacuolar Pyrophosphatase (V-PPase) has never been studied in sugarcane before and to date nothing is known about V-PPase in sugarcane, except for the sequences of a few expressed sequence tags (ESTs). The aim of this project ...
Identification of molecular markers for the diagnostic identification of the intracellular prokaryote associated with the appearance of withering syndrome in the abalone Haliotis midae

Ockert, Candice (Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2005-03)

Withering syndrome is a severe disease of abalone, Haliotis species that has been associated with mortality ranging from 99% in black, H. cracherodii Leach and 30% in red abalone, H. rufescens Swainson. The disease was ...
The influence of genetic manipulation of cytosolic aldolase (ALDc) on respiration in sugarcane

Scheepers, Ilana (Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2005-03)

Previous studies indicated that cytosolic aldolase (ALDc) could be a rate limiting step in glycolysis and thus play a role in the regulation of carbon partitioning in sink tissues. In this study the role of ALDc in sugarcane ...
Isolation and characterisation of a culm-specific promoter element from sugarcane

Goshu Abraha, Tsion (Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2005-03)

Sugarcane (Saccharum spp) is an important crop worldwide and is cultivated for the high level of sucrose in its mature internodes. Because of the exhaustion of the genetic potential in the commercial sugarcane germplasm ...
Mapping of chromosome arm 7DL of Triticum aestivum L.

Heyns, I.C. (Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2005-03)

The Russian wheat aphid, Diuraphis noxia (Mordvilko), is a serious insect pest of wheat and barley. It affects the quality and yield of grain by sucking plant sap from the newest growth whilst toxic substances are injected ...
