Annotation of Non-Model Species’ Genomes
… characterization of the genetic make-up of both model and non-model species, which has led to a surge in the use of genomics in fields which were previously considered unfeasible. These advances have greatly expanded the realm of possibilities in the fields of ecology and conservation. It is now …

Investigating photosynthetic mechanisms in model and non-model species
The impact of climate change is already evident, with record-breaking extreme temperatures, droughts, and altered rainfall patterns across the world. With these climate extremes and the need to supply food for the world, it is important to find novel ways to improve crop resilience. One approach is …

Estimation of Spacecraft Attitude Motion and Vibrational Modes Using Simultaneous Dual-Latitude Ground-Based Data
… of spacecraft attitude estimates, and of a non-model-based approach to the detection of vibrational modes. Because attitude observability from photometric data is angle-based, dual-site simultaneous photometric observations of a resident space object are predicted to improve the convergence …

Landscape genomics of tropical high altitude plant species
… has become feasible to obtain genomic data for non-model organisms and large sample sizes. The present thesis spans the transition years between phylogeographic studies being restricted to low resolution molecular markers, and new methods facilitating the generation of genomic data for non-model …

Events that shape genomes
… new possibilities for exploring the genomes of non-model organisms. For this thesis, a diverse range of non-model species from both plants and animals were used to identify and answer questions of evolutionary interest in four case studies. In doing so, a wide assortment of methodologies were …

Analysis of the effect of genetic heterogeneity on de novo genome assembly using Xylocopa virginica as a model.
… de novo genome sequencing and assembly for non-model organisms has now become a common task in genome research. However, the integral properties of a genome such as ploidy, mutations, and repeat content impose issues for current genome assemblers. In this work, we used Xylocopa virginica …

The Model Diet: Building a tailored dietary intervention for fashion models to meet the needs of the individual and the occupational and social constraints of the fashion industry
Fashion models have long been an example of low body weight (BMI under 18.5 kg/m 2 ), unhealthy eating practices and unrealistic beauty ideals. While much research has examined the effect fashion models have on body dissatisfaction, body dysmorphia, body-ideal and disordered eating, their …

The waiting game : a survival analysis of unemployment duration in South Africa 2001-2004
… Results from the analysis support a ranking model of unemployment, as proposed by Blanchard and Diamond (1990), with divergent unemployment exit rates between high and low ranked work seekers. The ranking given to a given educational level is found to be strongly related to race, indicating …
