Molecular Characterisation of Sex Differentiation Genes in Yellowtail Kingfish (Seriola lalandi)
(University of Waikato, 2015)Species diversification is crucial for the successful establishment and growth of a finfish aquaculture industry in New Zealand. The yellowtail kingfish Seriola lalandi is a promising candidate species with a fast growth ... -
Molecular dynamic simulations of OH-stretching overtone induced photodissociation of fluorosulfonic and chlorosulfonic acid
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2010)We investigate the OH-stretching overtone dynamics of fluorosulfonic acid (FSO₃H) and chlorosulfonic acid (ClSO₃H) using classical trajectory simulations. The initial nuclear coordinates and momenta for the trajectories ... -
Molecular dynamics decomposition of temperature-dependent elastic neutron scattering by a protein solution
(Biophysical Society, 2003-08)Molecular dynamics simulations are performed of bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor in a cryosolution over a range of temperatures from 80 to 300 K and the origins identified of elastic dynamic neutron scattering from the ... -
Molecular ecology techniques for the study of aerobic Methanotrophs
(American Society for Microbiology, 2008)Methane oxidation can occur in both aerobic and anaerobic environments; however, these are completely different processes involving different groups of prokaryotes. Aerobic methane oxidation is carried out by aerobic ... -
Molecular genetic tools for environmental monitoring of New Zealand's aquatic habitats, past, present and the future
(The Royal Society of New Zealand., 2013)The assessment of biological samples is critical for measuring the health of New Zealand aquatic environments. Analysis of these samples commonly requires species identification and enumeration, which usually involves ... -
The molecular identification of Streptococcus equi subsp. equi strains isolated within New Zealand
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)AIMS: To identify Streptococcus equi subsp. equi (S. equi) by PCR analysis and obtain isolates by culture, in order to investigate the strains of S. equi infecting horses within New Zealand. METHODS: A diagnostic PCR, ... -
Molecular imprinting of small, poorly functionalised organic compounds
(The University of Waikato, 2008)Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have been compared to natural antibodies in that they can specifically bind target compounds in a similar way that antibodies specifically bind to an antigen. The attraction of the ... -
Molecular Studies of House Mice in Southern New Zealand
(University of Waikato, 2011)The house mouse, Mus Musculus, was first introduced into New Zealand in significant numbers in the mid nineteenth century. Earlier research suggests that multiple introductions of the three subspecies of house mouse M. m. ... -
Molecular support for Pleistocene persistence of the continental Antarctic moss Bryum argenteum
(Cambridge, 2010)We examined sequence variation of ITS and phy2 for Bryum argenteum from Antarctica, sub-Antarctic, New Zealand and Australia to understand better taxonomic delimitations and resolve relationships between these geographic ... -
Molecular Systematics of the New Caledonian Cryptocaryeae (Lauraceae)
(University of Waikato, 2017)New Caledonia is an archipelago located in the southwest pacific. It has a tropical climate influenced by the surrounding sea and is recognised as a “biodiversity hotspot”. The flora of New Caledonia is poorly understood ... -
The Molecular Weight Characterisation of Pinus radiata Bark Condensed Tannins
(The University of Waikato, 2007)Crude condensed tannins extracted from Pinus radiata bark (sourced from Tokoroa) with various solvents (Hot water (HW), methanol/water/acetic acid (MWA), acetone/water (AW) and hot aqueous 2% sulphite/urea solution (SFU)) ... -
A molecular-based assessment tool for characterising New Zealand freshwater zooplankton communities
(Environmental Research Institute, Faculty of Science and Engineering, The University of Waikato, 2014)The ability to adequately assess ecosystem health is essential for informed resource management. Freshwater zooplankton respond rapidly to environmental changes in pest fish populations and nutrient loads and can therefore ... -
Momentum returns, market states and financial crises. Evidence from China and Hong Kong
(Routledge, 2017)This chapter investigates the profitability of the momentum trading strategy in the stock exchanges of Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong over the period 1994 to 2010. Our results show that there are significantly large ... -
Momentum returns, market states and market dynamics: Is China different?
(Elsevier BV, 2017)Recent studies suggest that momentum returns are conditioned by market states, but we find that China is different. First, we find that momentum returns in China exclusively follow DOWN markets contrary to the U.S. evidence. ... -
Momentum returns, market states, and market dynamics: Are Islamic stocks different?
(2016)Recent studies suggest that momentum returns are conditioned by market states and market dynamics. We ask if Islamic stocks behave differently from Non-Islamic stocks. Using data from the Malaysian stock market from 1991 ... -
Momentum, idiosyncratic volatility and market dynamics: Evidence from China
(Elsevier, 2017)Recent evidence on the relation between momentum and idiosyncratic volatility (IV) in the U.S. is mixed. We verify the relation between momentum and IV in China and find at best, no relation supporting the view that ... -
The monasteries of Putuoshan, China: Sites of secular or religious tourism?
(Routledge, 2013)The article reports an analysis derived from a sample of 640 respondents visiting the Buddhist site of Putuoshan that is sacred to the Bodhisattva of Compassion, Avalokitesvara. Drawing on literature and observation over ... -
Monetary policy and its transmission mechanisms in Eritrea
(Elsevier, 2013)The main purpose of this study is to identify the best practices of monetary policy implementation in the Eritrean economy. As such, the paper examines what kind of monetary policy and transmission mechanisms are relevant ... -
'Mong'st the furies finde just recompence': Suicide and the supernatural in William Sampson's The Vow Breaker (1636)
(Ashgate, 2015)The prevailing view on suicide in early modern England was that it was absolutely 'contrary to the Lawes and ordinances of God: 1 and contemporary theologians including John Sym, William Willymat, Robert Hill and Richard ... -
