Differential expression analysis of oil palm fatty acid biosynthetic enzymes with gel-free quantitative proteomics
(Malaysian Palm Oil Board, 2017-03)The control mechanisms of de novo fatty acid biosynthesis continue to intrigue, particularly at protein level. The cross talk between transcriptional and metabolic regulatory networks remains undefined. In order to understand ... -
Comparison of biochemical characteristics of Lactobacilli isolates from food and bovine rumen sources under low pH and bile salt stress conditions
(The Italian Association of Chemical Engineering, 2017-04)In this study, two lactobacilli isolates, from dairy food and bovine rumen, were used to investigate the differences in their biochemical characteristics when exposed to low pH and bile salt stress conditions. Production ... -
Second stage ecological restoration near Te Roto o Wairewa/Lake Forsyth and Little River, Horomaka (Banks Peninsula)
(Lincoln University, 2018)Most revegetation and ecological restoration projects throughout New Zealand are planted with a limited selection of native plant species. Funding restrictions often do not allow additional time for forward planning of ... -
Urinary nitrogen concentration from dairy heifers grazing kale supplemented with either plantain or perennial ryegrass baleage in winter
(NZ Grassland Association, 2016)The effect of feeding two different supplements (perennial ryegrass or plantain baleage) on urinary nitrogen (N) excretion from dairy heifers (8 months old, 180 kg liveweight (LW)) grazing kale was examined in two successive ... -
The biological effects of Lupinus polyphyllus on soil nitrogen in acid high country soils
(Lincoln University, 2018)Many high country soils in South Island have low soil pH and possibly high exchangeable aluminium (Al) concentrations, which limit establishment and persistence of pasture legumes for nitrogen (N) contribution. Lupinus ...
