Abstract:

The objective of this study was to determine the leaf water relations, gas exchange, and growth of the bedding plant salvia Salvia splendens 'Bonfire‘ as influenced by moisture stress conditioning (MSC - exposing plants to 4 sublethal dry-down cycles) and potassium (K) nutrition. Plants were fertilized with one of six K rates: 25, 75, 150, 300, 450, and 600 ppm as KCl in experiment one. Seven weeks after seeding plants were subjected to MSC. MSC and increasing K rate resulted in osmotic adjustment and increased cellular turgor potentials. Foliar K content increased as osmotic potentials decrea

Abstract:

Environmental stress conditions can drastically affect plant growth and productivity. In contrast to soil moisture or salinity that can gradually change over a period of days or weeks, changes in light intensity or temperature can occur very rapidly, sometimes over the course of minutes or seconds. So, in our study we have taken an metabolomics approach to identify the rapid response of plants to light stress. In the first part we have focused on the ultrafast (0-90 sec) metabolic response of local tissues to light stress and in the second part we analyzed the metabolic response associated wit

The high level of salinity (-0.6 Mpa osmotic potential of culture solution) resulted in substantial reduction in the N fixation percentage and total fixed N. The effect of salinity was more pronounced for later cuttings than for the earlier cutting. The N fixation percentages were substantially decreased

This thesis investigates the symptoms of leaf senescence in response to plant shoot water stress and demonstrates the effect of a non-hydraulic root signal in the senescence response of mature leaves of sunflower. The alleviation of the leaf soluble protein loss rate by excision of the root system in drying soil indicates that this signal originates in roots in dry soil and acts to promote protein loss.

The radiotracer methodology was combined with the Hoagland solution culture of growing soybean in a greenhouse to investigate the absorptions of phosphorus (P), calcium (Ca), and sodium (Na) as a function of salinity. Salt stress was varied by using zero to 120 mM NaCl. The research was initiated because of a need to increase soybean production in the saline soils of the semi-arid regions of the world. Although P absorption increased with time at each concentration of NaCl, increasing its concentrations ([NaCl]) to 120 mM reduced P uptake considerably. The addition of inorganic P (Pi) to the s

Many stress situations limit plant growth, resulting in crop production difficulties. Population growth, limited availability and over-utilization of arable land, and intolerant crop species have resulted in tremendous strain being placed on agriculturalists to produce enough to sustain the world's population. An understanding of the principles involved in plant resistance to environmental stress will enable scientists to harness these mechanisms to create stress-tolerant crop species, thus increasing crop production, and enabling the farming of previously unproductive land.

Results showed that while the rate of water loss was similar in the two species, the inhibition of amino acid incorporation was greater in B. napus than B. juncea at any given level of desiccation. Electrolyte leakage increased with the degree of desiccation and was greater in B. napus than in B. juncea. In both, the increase in leakage was much sharper after 12 hours of desiccation.

A dual-stage process, which separates the distinctive growth and secondary metabolite production stages of the alga, has been proposed. The broad aim of the research programm

In order to maximise β-carotene production, a dual-stage process which separates the distinctive growth phase from the β-carotene accumulating stress phase has recently been patented.

Abstract:

Appreciation of the ecological and economic values associated with healthy salt marshes has led to a recent rise in the number of marshes that are being targeted for restoration by dike removal. The success of restoration is often measured by the return of marsh plants, though this overlooks a key component of salt marshes, that of the invertebrate community within marsh sediments. To evaluate the short-term recovery of these invertebrates, sediment cores were collected across an elevational gradient in a recent dike removal marsh, one and two years post removal, and a nearby reference marsh.

Abstract:

The production of alumina involves the use of a process known as the Bayer process. This method involves the digestion of raw bauxite in sodium hydroxide at temperatures around 250°C. The resultant pregnant liquor then goes through a number of filtering and precipitation processes to obtain the aluminium oxide crystals which are then calcined to obtain the final product. The plant is situated in a sub tropical climate in Northern Australia and this combined with the hot nature of the process results in a potential for heat related illnesses to develop. When assessing a work environment for hea

Abstract:

Homologous recombination represents a DNA repair pathway. Its role in a plant cell is not limited to double strand break repair. It also extends to genome evolution via rearranging of DNA sequences, and has an important application in foreign DNA integration in the plant genome. Our study demonstrated that effects exerted by stress on homologous recombination and genome stability are not restricted to the exposed generation. The progeny of plants exposed to stress exhibited elevated spontaneous homologous recombination, changes in DNA methylation and higher tolerance to stress. These heritable

Abstract:

The effect of steady shear stress on somatic embryos were investigated in a flow chamber and evaluated at different time intervals using microscopy technique. The development of meristematic cell clusters, i.e. the immature embryos, into a polarized somatic embryo, and the effect on the localization of the suspensor cells that form during development of the immature embryos, were studied as a function of shear stresses. With the distribution and growth rate of the meristematic and suspensor cells, the effect of stress on the embryo development was established. Furthermore, the effect of she

Abstract:

The south-west of Western Australia has a Mediterranean climate and flora endemic to this area, including the keystone species, jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata), have adapted to the droughted summer conditions. The introduction of an exotic soil borne pathogen, Phytophthora cinnamomi, has challenged the survival of this and many other species. The expectation might be that plants stressed by drought are more susceptible to disease and this study examined the development of disease caused by P. cinnamomi in E. marginata and the significance of water status to that development.

Abstract:

Murine stress-inducible protein 1 (mSTI1) is a co-chaperone that is homologous with the human heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70)/heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90)-organizing protein (Hop). The two proteins are homologues of the highly conserved stress-inducible protein 1 (STI1) family of co-chaperones. The STI1 proteins interact directly and simultaneously at some stage, with Hsp70 and Hsp90 in the formation of the hetero-multi-chaperone complexes that facilitate the folding of signal transducing kinases and functional maturation of steroid hormone receptors. The interactions of mSTI1 with both Hsp70 a

Phytoplankton biomass, measured as chlorophyll a, was reduced by an average of 55.32% due to entrainment, and productivity was decreased by 38.30% on average, mainly due to chlorination. Zooplankton mortality averaged 22.34% for all species and 30.52% for copepods, the dominant group. The copepod Paracartia africana was used in laboratory experiments desi

Abstract:

As the population in water stressed areas increases, it is critical that wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) continue to replenish depleted water supplies, and serve as an alternative water source. WWTPs depend on microorganisms in activated sludge to remove pollutants from wastewater and therefore an understanding of how these microorganisms are affected by various conditions and pollutants is needed. Also, as consumer products and industrial processes evolve, so do the pollutants they discharge to wastewater. In order to keep pace with these changes, understanding the effects of emerging con
