Growth, water use efficiency and stable carbon isotopes in commercial clones of Eucalyptus
… of determining the following: (i) The extent of clonal variation in growth, dry mass allocation patterns, water use efficiency and the water cost of wood production at 16 months after planting. (ii) The influence of plant physiological traits such as patterns of dry mass allocation, canopy leaf …

Proteolytic mechanisms involved in the metastasis of human melanoma cells
… of unforeseen problems arose. Firstly, the clonal variation within the cell population, and secondly, my inability to obtain antisense transfectants. I have speculated that a possible reason for the latter may be that the cells are in fact unable to grow in the absence of tPA.

The molecular ecology of Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton, the American cranberry
… in temperate bogs in North America. It spreads clonally by runners, and reproduces sexually predominantly by self-fertilization on upright stems. The objective of this project was to investigate genetic and clonal variation and phenotypic plasticity of V. macrocarpon. Specifically, I wanted to …

Engineering mammalian cell line to improve sialylation
… by sialidase knock down. This could be due to clonal variation of parent cells or due to sialic acid salvage pathway disruption by reduced sialidase activity. At the third stage of the studies, we develop a GFP-based method to rapidly and effectively isolate cells which express high amounts of …

Studies on the Complement Receptor of a Human Lymphoblastoid Cell Line
… variant with a growth advantage. The ability of clonally derived cells to alter their degree of receptor expression indicates that the CR- cells are not mutants deficient in the structural gene necessary for the production of the receptor, nor are they bearers of a mutant structural gene which …
