Design of a microscopy-based screening method for stomatal development genes in <i>arabidopsis thaliana</i>
… are microscopic pores in the epidermis of plants that regulate gas exchange and transpiration. Regulation of stomatal behavior offers opportunity for crop improvement; stomata are also useful for research into cell patterning, differentiation, and development. The purpose of this project …

Cloning of novel low and high molecular weight heat shock genes in wheat
… heat shock proteins play a vital role in the plant's ability to survive high temperature stress. Cloning low and high molecular weight HSPs from a thermotolerant variety of wheat will provide a building block for later studies of their function. Moreover, once significance of a HSP gene in …

Genetic analysis of tissue culture responses in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.).
The overall objectives of this thesis were to screen barley genotypes for in vitro culture response; and to use the double haploid (DH) lines derived from the cross between responsive and unresponsive parental lines to confirm the location of previously reported QTL that control barley tissue …

Spatio-temporal regulation of pre-symbiotic signalling in arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis
… is a ubiquitous and ancient interaction between plant roots and Glomeromycotina fungi, underpinned by a mutualistic nutrient exchange. In this intimate partnership, the fungus dynamically and asynchronously colonises the plant root system and cortex cells. Symbiosis development must therefore …
