Does Gamma-aminobutyric acid function as a plant resistance mechanism against phytophagous insect activity? /

MacGregor, Kennaway Byron. (Brock University, 2000-05-21)

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GAB A) is a ubiquitous non-protein amino acid synthesized via the decarboxylation of L-glutamate in a reaction catalyzed by the cytosolic enzyme L-glutamate decarboxylase (GAD). In animals it ...
Attractive silences in cricket courtship song : mate choice using a short-range signal /

Fitzpatrick, Mark Jeffrey. (Brock University, 2000-05-21)

Matings systems using signals for sexual communication have been studied extensively and results commonly suggest that females use these signals for locating males, species-identification, and mate choice. Although ...
Effects of a hydroxy-cinnamoyl conjugate of spermidine in the neuromuscular junction of crayfish /

Klose, Markus. (Brock University, 2000-05-21)

N'-coumaroyl spermidine (NlCSpd) is a plant derived chemical which is proposed to belong to a class of low molecular weight neuroactive substances called phenolic polyamines. NlCSpd is stnicturally similar to glutamate ...
Incidence of resistance to benzimidazole fungicides in a field population of Venturia inaequalis /

Moftah, Housain Gadmoor. (Brock University, 2000-05-21)

The allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to screen for the presence of benomyl resistance, and to characterize their levels and frequencies in field populations of Venturia inaequalis during two ...
Isolation and characterization of the female sex pheromone of the sugar beet cyst nematode, heterodera schachtii, and an analysis of male precopulatory behaviour /

Jonz, Michael G. (Brock University, 2000-05-21)

The sugar beet cyst nematode, Heterodera schachtii, is a major agricultural pest. The disruption of the mating behaviour of this plant parasite in the field may provide a means of biological control, and a subsequent ...
The effects of plants(Typha Latifolia)and root-bed medium on the treatment of domestic sewage within a vertical flow constructed wetland /

Rozema, Lloyd R. (Brock University, 2000-07-14)

The effect that plants {Typha latifolia) as well as root-bed medium physical and chemical characteristics have on the treatment of primary treated domestic wastewater within a vertical flow constructed wetland system ...
Bacteriophages of Erwinia amylovora and their potential use in biological control

Gill, Jason J. (Brock University, 2000-11-04)

Forty-four bacteriophage isolates of Erwinia amy/ovora, the causal agent of fire blight, were collected from sites in and around the Niagara Region of Southern Ontario in the summer of 1998. Phages were isolated only ...
