• Host-parasitoid avoidance behaviour in the context of contemporary evolution in insect classical biological control : A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University 

  Shields, Morgan William (Lincoln University, 2019)

  Pests are increasingly invading novel environments due to global trade and travel and their management requires a greater emphasis on classical biological control than has previously been the case. This approach has been ...

• Dissecting the events of the Trichoderma-plant interaction through proteomics and metabolomics approaches: Trichoderma virens and maize as model systems 

  Nogueira Lopez, Guillermo (Lincoln University, 2019)

  In nature, almost every plant is colonised by fungi. Trichoderma virens is a biocontrol fungus which has the capacity to behave as an facutaltive plant endophyte. Even though many plants are colonised by this symbiont, the ...

• Effectiveness of Vetiver grass versus other plants for phytoremediation of contaminated water 

  Darajeh, N.; Truong, P.; Rezania, S.; Alizadeh, Hossein; Leung, D. W. M. (Dorma Trading Est., 2019-08-29)

  Worldwide water pollution level in the last few decades has been exponentially increased as a result of industrialisation. This global increase occurs in both developed and developing countries, but more significantly in ...

• Effect of pollen source and stigma receptivity on seed production in ten cultivars of Dianthus plumarius L. 

  Hewage, N. P.; Hampton, John G.; Hill, Murray J. (New Zealand Seed Technology Institute on behalf of the International Herbage Seed Group, 1999)

  Dianthus plumarius L. is usually propagated vegetatively, but seed propagation is an option. However, erratic and often poor seed setting can be a problem in Dianthus spp. Pollen viability, stigma receptivity and the effect ...

• Effects of plant density on seed yield in Caucasian clover (Trifolium ambiguum Bieb.) cv. Monaro 

  Fu, S. M.; Hampton, John G.; Hill, Murray J. (New Zealand Seed Technology Institute on behalf of the International Herbage Seed Group, 1999)

  A radial trial design was used to determine the effect of plant density on seed yield of Caucasian clover (Trifolium ambiguum Bieb.) cv. Monaro, and the seed yield response of twelve genotypes selected from within cv. ...
