Population Structure of Sclerotinia subarctica and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in England, Scotland and Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Sclerotinia species are important fungal pathogens of a wide range of crops and wild host plants. While the biology and population structure of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum has been well-studied, little information is available ... -
Living inside termites: an overview of symbiotic interac-tions, with emphasis on flagellate protists
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)To degrade lignocellulose efficiently, lower termites rely on their digestive tract’s specific features (i.e., hysiological properties and enzymes) and on the network of symbiotic fauna harboured in their hindgut. This ... -
Vitality and in vitro pollen germination of different ‘Oblačinska’ sour cherry clones
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Vitality of pollen, in vitro pollen germination and pollen tube growth (pollen tube length and pollen tube growth rate) were investigated in Oblačinska sour cherry in order to determine the differences between clones which ... -
Hydrological Responses and Flow Pathways in an Acrisol on a Forested Hillslope with a Monsoonal Subtropical Climate
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The nature of subsurface flow depends largely on hydraulic conductivity of the vadoze zone, the permeability of the underlying bedrock, the existence of soil layers differing in hydraulic properties and macropore content, ... -
Prosjekt ENGKALL: Tilpasset skjøtsel av verdifulle slåtteenger.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Semi-natural habitats are key habitats for biodiversity in agricultural landscapes, but are threatened due to structural change and decline in agriculture. In Norway, the Action Plan for Hay Meadows (APHM) was implemented ... -
Mitotic catastrophe in BC3H1 cells following yessotoxin exposure
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The marine toxin yessotoxin (YTX) can cause various cytotoxic effects depending on cell type and cell line. It is well known to trigger distinct mechanisms for programmed cell death which may overlap or cross-talk. The ... -
Composition and spatial structure of dwarf shrub heath in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Detailed descriptions of individual vegetation types shown on vegetation maps can improve the ways in which the composition and spatial structure within the types are understood. The authors therefore examined dwarf shrub ... -
Changing contributions of stochastic and deterministic processes in community assembly over a successional gradient
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Successional dynamics in plant community assembly may result from both deterministic and stochastic ecological processes. The relative importance of different ecological processes is expected to vary over the successional ... -
Progression of Ash Dieback in Norway Related to Tree Age, Disease History and Regional Aspects
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Ash dieback, caused by the ascomycete Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, has been spreading throughout Europe since the early 1990s, threatening European ash at a continental scale. Little is known about the development of the disease ... -
Biochar as a tool to reduce the agricultural greenhouse-gas burden – knowns, unknowns and future research needs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Agriculture and land use change has significantly increased atmospheric emissions of the non-CO2 green-house gases (GHG) nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4). Since human nutritional and bioenergy needs continue to increase, ... -
Animal Successional Pathways for about 200 Years Near a Melting Glacier: A Norwegian Case Study
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2017)Here, we explore 200 years of arthropod succession by using dated moraines in a Norwegian glacier foreland. Surface active beetles (Coleoptera) and spiders (Aranea) were sampled by pitfall trapping, and springtails ... -
A synthesis of the arctic terrestrial and marine carbon cycles under pressure from a dwindling cryosphere
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Abstract The current downturn of the arctic cryosphere, such as the strong loss of sea ice, melting of ice sheets and glaciers, and permafrost thaw, affects the marine and terrestrial carbon cycles in numerous interconnected ... -
Estimating unconsolidated sediment cover thickness by using the horizontal distance to a bedrock outcrop as secondary information
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Unconsolidated sediment cover thickness (D) above bedrock was estimated by using a publicly available well database from Norway, GRANADA. General challenges associated with such databases typically involve clustering and ... -
Botanical survey of two Norwegian forest fields, dominated by European blueberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In a project focusing on semi-cultivation of European blueberry (EB) from 2008 to 2011, a botanical survey was undertaken in two experimental fields in the municipalities of Snåsa and Lierne in the county of Nord-Trøndelag, ... -
The epigenetic memory of temperature during embryogenesis modifies the expression of bud burst-related genes in Norway spruce epitypes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Main conclusion Epigenetic memory affects the timing of bud burst phenology and the expression of bud burstrelated genes in genetically identical Norway spruce epitypes in a manner usually associated with ecotypes. In ... -
Local resources, linear elements and mass-flowering crops determine bumblebee occurrences in moderately intensified farmlands
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)There is consensus that land-use change is a main driver behind the recent declines of many pollinator populations in Europe. However, it is still not adequately understood how the local resource quality and landscape ... -
A comparison of nonlinear mixed models and response to selection of tick-infestation on lambs
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Tick-borne fever (TBF) is stated as one of the main disease challenges in Norwegian sheep farming during the grazing season. TBF is caused by the bacterium Anaplasma phagocytophilum that is transmitted by the tick Ixodes ... -
A Novel Recombined Potato virus Y Isolate in China
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)This study reports the findings of a distinct Potato virus Y (PVY) isolate found in Northeast China. One hundred and ten samples (leaves and tubers) were collected from potato plants showing mosaic symptoms around the city ... -
The effect of different test methods on durability classification on modified wood
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In order to encourage increased use of wood more empirical data on the performance of wood products are needed from different exposure situations and geographical locations. In the current study modified Scots pine sapwood ... -
