Identification and characterisation of Vitis vinifera pathogenesis-related proteins that accumulate during berry ripening / David Bruce Tattersall.

Bibliography: leaves 138-158. / x, 158 leaves : ill. ; 30 cm. / Title page, contents and abstract only. The complete thesis in print form is available from the University Library. / This study identified and investigated the properties, functions and patterns of accumulation of prominent berry proteins associated with white wine haze. Detailed analysis was conducted on two PR-like proteins of V. vinifera, VVPR-4a and VVTL1. In vitro fungal growth inhibition assays suggested that berry PR-like proteins may play an important role in plant defence, particularly against fungal attack. Results of this study also have future implications for controlling the ripening process of grapes. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Adelaide, Dept. of Horticulture, Viticulture and Oenology, 1999
