Effects of Temperature and Photoperiod on the Flower Potential in Everbearing Strawberry as Evaluated by Meristem Dissection
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-11-10)The growing interest in using everbearing (EB) strawberry cultivars to extend the cultivation period has faced some challenges. These include poor runner production due to its perpetual flowering nature; irregular flowering ... -
Effects of Temperature and Photoperiod on Yield and Chemical Composition of Northern and Southern Clones of Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)After pollination outdoors individual bilberry plants from two Northern and two Southern clones were studied for climatic effects on berry yield and quality in a controlled phytotrone experiment at 12 °C and 18 °C. At each ... -
Effects of three short-term pasture allocation methods on milk production, methane emission and grazing behaviour by dairy cows
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-02-14)Two short-term grazing experiments were conducted with Norwegian Red cows. In Exp 1, 24 cows were randomly assigned to one of the following three pasture allocation methods (PAM): weekly pasture allowance (7RG), grazing ... -
Effects of water level regulation in alpine hydropower reservoirs: an ecosystem perspective with a special emphasis on fish
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-02-04)Sustainable development of hydropower demands a holistic view of potential impacts of water level regulation (WLR) on reservoir ecosystems. Most environmental studies of hydropower have focused on rivers, whereas environmental ... -
Efficiency drivers in harvesting operations in mixed Boreal stands: a Norwegian case study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-06-17)This paper uses Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to evaluate how the technical efficiency of forest harvesting operations is influenced by terrain conditions and forest attributes, in addition to exploring the existence of ... -
Efficiency of Livestock Carcass Detection Dogs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-10-25)There is an increasing use of carcass detection dogs to find remains of dead livestock in Norwegian rangelands. But how effective are these dogs actually? • We compared the efficiency of approved carcass detection dog ... -

Elevational treeline and forest line dynamics in Norwegian mountain areas - a review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Purpose Treelines and forest lines (TFLs) have received growing interest in recent decades, due to their potential role as indicators of climate change. However, the understanding of TFL dynamics is challenged by the complex ... -
Elucidation of the molecular responses during the primary infection of wild blueberry phenotypes with Monilinia vaccinii-corymbosi under field conditions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-10-27)Background Monilinia blight caused by Monilinia vaccinii-corymbosi (Reade) Honey (M.vc) is a major disease of wild blueberry that can result in severe crop losses in the absence of an integrated disease management programme. ... -
Emerging stability of forest productivity by mixing two species buffers temperature destabilizing effect
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-08-06)The increasing disturbances in monocultures around the world are testimony to their instability under global change. Many studies have claimed that temporal stability of productivity increases with species richness, although ... -
Endogeneity, heterogeneity, and determinants of inefficiency in Norwegian crop-producing farms
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-04-27)This paper addresses the endogeneity of inputs and output (which is mostly ignored in the stochastic frontier (SF) literature) in the SF panel data model under the behavioural assumption that firms maximize returns to the ... -
Endophytic fungi improve management of the burrowing nematode in banana (Musa spp.) through enhanced expression of defence-related genes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-03-02)The root-burrowing nematode, Radopholus similis, is reputedly the most damaging nematode pest of banana and responsible for major production losses. In this study, the endophytic potential of 13 fungal isolates was assessed ... -
