Includes bibliographical references (p. 116-137). The work outlined in this thesis aimed to further our understanding of jasmonate signalling by identifying specific promoter elements and associated transcription factors important for gene regulation by methyl jasmonate. A cDNA encoding a β-glucosidase, PYK10, was previously isolated using the differential display technique in an attempt to isolate methyl jasmonate-induced genes in Arabidopsis thaliana. β-glucosidases catalyse the breakdown of glucosinolates into glucose and sulphate releasing toxic by-products which play a role in plant defence against insects and pathogens. 2014-07-30T17:42:20Z 2014-07-30T17:42:20Z 2008 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/4350 eng application/pdf Department of Molecular and Cell Biology Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
