Analysis of the proteome of red and green leaf phenotypes of 'Bon Rouge' pear trees \trus communrls L. by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis
(University of the Western Cape, 2007)
The 'Bon Rouge' pear is a red pear cultivar derived from a rare, spontaneous bud
mutation which occurred on the green pear 'William's Bon Chretien' (Bartlett). 'Bon
Rouge' pear cultivar was observed to be reverting back ...
Genome-wide identification and comprehensive analysis of transcriptionsl desert regions
(University of the Western Cape, 2009)
The initiation of transcription in mammalian genomes predominatly occurs
at 5' promoter regions, however increasingly initiation events have been
observed within introns, coding exons and 3' UTRs. Nevertheless there ...
Isolation and identification of PNP-A homologues from Xerophyta viscosa Baker
(University of the Western Cape, 2004)
Maintenance of growth, development and normal physiological processes remains crucial
for the survival of plants. Plant hormones are described as integrators of external signal
and internal developmental process in plants. ...
An investigation of the plants used medicinally In self-care in the Bredasdorp / Elim region
(University of the Western Cape, 2004)
Much of the traditional medicinal plant knowledge is to a large extent known by the
older generations. This knowledge is at risk of disappearing due to not being passed
down to younger members of the respective families ...
identification of Quantitative Tralt Locl Controlling the Requirement for chilling ln Vegetative budbreak in apple (malus x domestica Borkh')
(University of the Western Cape, 2007)
The domesticated apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.) has been distributed into diverse climatic conditions worldwide for commercial
production of fruit. Apple trees need exposure to cold temperatures, referred to as chill ...
Isolation, identification and characterization of novel actinomycetes from Antarctic soil samples
(University of the Western Cape, 2008)
Actinomycetes are Gram-positive bacteria that form filamentous branching hyphae with asexual spores. They occur in a variety of environments and are important industrially and pharmaceutically. The aims of this study were ...
The molecular characterization of trichoplusia ni single nucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus: a study on early regulatory features
(University of the Western Cape, 2003)
With the development of biological insecticides, many research efforts have been made in baculoviruses to investigate fundamental molecular aspects of these viruses, such as the function and regulation of genes, genome ...
A proteomic analysis of drought and salt stress responsive proteins of different sorghum varieties
(University of the Western Cape, 2009)
Sorghum (Sorghum bicolorï, a drought tolerant cereal crop, is not only an important food source in the semi arid/arid regions but also a potential model for studying and gaining a better understanding of the molecular ...
