Abstract:
Stress is one of the most critical influences on behavior, performance and disease. Recent findings from our laboratory have shown that stress represents a major modulator of motor function in the intact and damaged brain. The mechanisms by which stress and stress hormones affect motor system function, however, have not yet been determined. The objective of this thesis was to determine the route of action of stress and stress hormones on the motor system in a rat model. The first experiment investigates whether corticosterone is involved in mediating stress-induced motor impairments. The secon

Stress has been shown to exacerbate cell death and cognitive deficits after ischemic injury in rodents, however, little is known of the effects of stress on motor recovery.

It was found that pre-lesion stress induced the most behavioural impairments, while post-lesion stress exacerbated infarct volume. The effects of chronic multiple stress on skilled motor recovery after lesion was also examined. Chronic multiple stress did not modulate skilled mot

This thesis sets out to explore the process of motor skill acquisition and presents a thorough investigation of the role played by imagery ability in the recall and reproduction of a motor task.

Children who enter into preschool with developmental delays struggle to keep up with their peers. These developmental delays often perpetuate into later school years, with negative effects. Visual-motor integration (VMI) is a hugely important skill that children need to develop before formal schooling commences. It forms the basis for academic skills like reading and writing, as well as many sport skills. Having a VMI and/or gross mot

Abstract:
Exercise induced fatigue can have a negative impact on motor skill performance. While part of the decline is attributable to physiological factors that directly influence the coordination of movement, psychological factors may also contribute. Typically, motor learning environments encourage the accumulation of task-relevant declarative knowledge, which can be depended on to consciously support performance. The literature suggests that skills learnt in this way are vulnerable to demanding performance environments, including those in which the performer is fatigued. Recent empirical work has de

Abstract:
Maize (Zea mays L.) is an important crop in the world; however, its yield is compromised by new production challenges leading to poor yield in sub-Saharan Africa. This calls for a need to enhance maize adaptation to changing climate and challenging environments. The new maize varieties should be richly endowed with high frequency of genes that confer high yield under stress and non-stress conditions. Currently, such maize is not available, prompting research into development of new germplasm lines for use in developing new hybrids. The objective of the study was to determine i) the level of ge
