(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-12-12)Six species of Ips de Geer (Coleoptera: Curculionidae; Scolytinae) occur in Europe. They attack weakened or dead conifers but may become aggressive and mass-attack living trees. All species have expanded their ranges in ... -
Transcriptome analysis of Phytophthora cactorum infecting strawberry identified RXLR effectors that induce cell death when transiently expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-05-24)Phytophthora cactorum is a plant pathogenic oomycete that causes crown rot in strawberry leading to significant economic losses every year. To invade the host, P. cactorum secretes an arsenal of effectors that can manipulate ... -
Effects of dry matter concentration in grass silage on milk production of dairy cows fed concentrates high or low in metabolizable protein concentration
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Studies have shown that extended wilting of grass before ensiling can improve the metabolizable protein (MP) value of the grass silage, both from increased rumen microbial crude protein (MCP) yield and ruminally undegraded ... -
Asynchronous recovery of evaporation and transpiration following extreme snow damage in a subtropical forest
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-09-04)Study region: The Ailaoshan National Nature Reserve forest is a mountainous water catchment area for the Lancang River basin and a subtropical ecological conservation area in southwest China. Study focus: The study aimed ... -
Lessons to learn for better safeguarding of genetic resources during tree pandemics: The case of ash dieback in Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-10-02)Ash dieback (ADB) has been threatening populations of European ash (Fraxinus excelsior & F. angustifolia) for more than three decades. Although much knowledge has been gathered in the recent past, practical conservation ... -
Adjuvants used in fungicide spraying on soybean plants
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-06-13)Aim of study: An adjuvant is a material that is added to a spray carrier to improve the application technology's efficiency but lacks phytosanitary qualities. Our objective was to determine the best option of combining ... -
Evidence of River Otter (Lontra canadensis) recolonization of Prince Edward Island, Canada
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-01-15)River Otter (Lontra canadensis) was extirpated from Prince Edward Island (PEI) in the early 1900s as a result of habitat loss and overexploitation. Although there were isolated and sporadic occurrences in PEI coastal and ... -
Conservation and Avoided Deforestation: Evidence from Protected Areas of Tanzania
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-09-10)Tanzania dedicates a substantial proportion (38%) of its territory to conservation, with a large number of Protected Areas (PAs) managed under various regimes. Nevertheless, the country still experiences high rates of ... -
Climatic and management-related drivers of endemic European spruce bark beetle populations in boreal forests
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-02-15)1. Climate change is already reducing carbon sequestration in Central European forests dramatically through extensive droughts and bark beetle outbreaks. Further warming may threaten the enormous carbon reservoirs in the ... -
Plant metabolic responses to soil herbicide residues differ under herbivory in two woodland strawberry genotypes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-06-26)The use of glyphosate-based herbicides (GBHs) to control weeds has increased exponentially in recent decades, and their residues and degradation products have been found in soils across the globe. GBH residues in soil have ... -
Apple Values—What Determines the Decision to Buy Apples?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-09-20)Apples are a healthy and environmentally friendly snack, but the consumption of apples in many countries, including Norway, has decreased in the last fifteen years. This trend has a potential negative impact on public ... -
The use of interval censored data to assess the timing of early field infestation of fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae) in maize fields
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-07-18)The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, situation in Africa remains a priority threat despite significant efforts made since the first outbreaks in 2016 to control the pest and thereby reduce yield losses. Field surveys ... -
Small Ruminant Parturition Detection Based on Inertial Sensors—A Review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-10-07)The birth process in animals, much like in humans, can encounter complications that pose significant risks to both offspring and mothers. Monitoring these events can provide essential nursing support, but human monitoring ... -
Impact of Cellulose Modification by Expandable Graphite and Carbon Nanotubes on Flammability and Thermal Properties
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-06-10)The flammability of cellulosic material restricts its use in insulation and packaging applications. This study examined carbon-based additives to protect cellulose paper against thermal degradation. Carbon nanotubes (CNT) ... -
Diversity and Chemical Characterization of Apple (Malus sp.) Pollen: High Antioxidant and Nutritional Values for Both Humans and Insects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-11-09)Pollen represents a reward for pollinators and is a key element in plant–insect interactions, especially in apples, which are entomophilous species and require cross-pollination to produce economically valuable yields. The ... -
Climate change and deer in boreal and temperate regions: From physiology to population dynamics and species distributions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-09-25)Climate change causes far-reaching disruption in nature, where tolerance thresholds already have been exceeded for some plants and animals. In the short term, deer may respond to climate through individual physiological ... -
