Project Title: Searching for novel antimicrobials

With Pacific island researchers, we have recently reported successful culturing of bioactive bacteria, including Streptomyces and rare Actinomycetes from a limestone cave in Fiji. We have shown that the bacteria cultured are only a small fraction of the diversity present in the cave. Using portable DNA and RNA sequencing technology we will genetically screen the bacteria already cultured for novel antimicrobials. We will also use this technology to directly look for novel bioactivity in further biological samples taken from the cave. To isolate and culture bioactive bacteria, we are using pre-treatments that select against fast-growing bacteria and selective growing conditions that mimic the cave environment. We do this because the World Health Organisation has recently emphasised the importance of identifying novel antibiotics to combat the frightening rise of multidrug-resistant micro-organisms. This emerging global problem of Antimicrobial Resistance has the potential to cripple the health system in New Zealand.

Project Title: Tracing the influence of cultivation on the whakapa of endemic NZ plants with molecular markers

The domestication of plants and animals was the most important development in human history during the past 13 000 years. Most crops are thousands of years old, with aspects of their initial domestication indeterminable. However, the relatively recent settlement of New Zealand by Maori provides a unique opportunity to investigate the early phase of crop domestication. We shall use genetic analyses of four endemic New Zealand plants cultivated by Maori to examine recent domestication: karaka, rengarenga, whau, and coastal kowhai. Prior to human arrival these species are thought to have been restricted to the northern North Island. Their occurrence in the southern North Island, the South Island, and distant Chatham and Kermadec Island groups, which is strongly associated with M?ori archaeological sites, is considered to result from translocations as part of their cultivation. Our analyses will reveal information about the number of times each species was brought into cultivation and the way in which domestication has reduced genetic diversity in the cultivated populations. Our genetic data, combined with traditional oral histories, where available, will reflect and illuminate pre-European Maori settlement routes and mobility.
