Profiling shifts in protein complement in tomato fruit induced by atmospheric ozone-enrichment and/or wound-inoculation with Botrytis cinerea (2013)
Journal Article
Tzortzakis, N., Taybi, T., Antony, E., Singleton, I., Borland, A., & Barnes, J. (2013). Profiling shifts in protein complement in tomato fruit induced by atmospheric ozone-enrichment and/or wound-inoculation with Botrytis cinerea. Postharvest Biology and Technology, 78, 67-75. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.postharvbio.2012.12.005

To unravel the mechanism by which low level atmospheric ozone-enrichment (0.05 μmol mol−1) increases the shelf-life of tomato fruit (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) by suppressing the growth of pathogens (Botrytis cinerea), protein yield and compositi...

DDT Resistance and Transformation by Different Microbial Strains Isolated from DDT-Contaminated Soils and Compost Materials (2003)
Journal Article
Kantachote, D., Singleton, I., McClure, N., Naidu, R., Megharaj, M., & Harch, B. D. (2003). DDT Resistance and Transformation by Different Microbial Strains Isolated from DDT-Contaminated Soils and Compost Materials. Compost science & utilization, 11(4), 300-310. https://doi.org/10.1080/1065657x.2003.10702139

Bioremediation is a potential option to treat 1, 1, 1-trichloro-2, 2-bis (4-chlorophenyl) ethane (DDT) contaminated sites. In areas where suitable microbes are not present, the use of DDT resistant microbial inoculants may be necessary. It is vital t...

Changes in microbial properties associated with long-term arsenic and DDT contaminated soils at disused cattle dip sites (2003)
Journal Article
Edvantoro, B., Naidu, R., Megharaj, M., & Singleton, I. (2003). Changes in microbial properties associated with long-term arsenic and DDT contaminated soils at disused cattle dip sites. Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 55(3), 344-351. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0147-6513%2802%2900092-1

This work examined the effect of long-term arsenic (As) and DDT contamination on soil microbial properties at 11 cattle dip sites in northern New South Wales, Australia. Total As in the surface (0–10 cm) soils from these sites ranged from 34 to 2941...

Resistance of microbial populations in DDT-contaminated and uncontaminated soils (2000)
Journal Article
Kantachote, D., Naidu, R., Singleton, I., McClure, N., & Harch, B. (2001). Resistance of microbial populations in DDT-contaminated and uncontaminated soils. Applied Soil Ecology, 16(1), 85-90. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0929-1393%2800%2900058-5

One DDT-contaminated soil and two uncontaminated soils were used to enumerate DDT-resistant microbes (bacteria, actinomycetes and fungi) by using soil dilution agar plates in media either with 150 μg DDT ml−1 or without DDT at different temperatures...
