(Lincoln University, 1991)
Spider mite (Tetranychidae) outbreaks often occur following pyrethroid insecticide applications, although there is considerable variation between the response to different pyrethroids. Recent reviews suggested that differences ...
Gene expression in Vicia faba L. under regulation of the SV40 enhancer
(Lincoln University, 1991)
The similarities and differences between plants and other organisms can be studied by introducing non-plant regulatory sequences into the plant genome. Experiments were carried out to study gene expression under the ...
An investigation of the antifertility effects of medroxyprogesterone acetate in rabbits
(Lincoln University, 1991)
A series of studies was carried out to investigate feasibility of chemical fertility control in wild rabbit populations. Initial trials were designed to investigate in vivo kinetics and bioavailability properties of MPA ...
Metabolism of triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins in sheep
(Lincoln University, 1991)
This thesis describes two approaches for studying of lipoprotein metabolism in sheep. The first approach involves the assay of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity to determine the role of lipoprotein-triacylglycerol fatty ...
