(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The current study provides an in vivo analysis of the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans following exposure to EU reference silver nanoparticles NM300K ... -
In vivo function of Pgβglu-1 in the release of acetophenones in white spruce
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-07-07)Eastern spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferiana Clemens) (ESBW) is a major forest pest which feeds on young shoots of white spruce (Picea glauca) and can cause landscape level economic and ecological losses. Release of ... -
In-depth characterization of Trichoderma reesei cellobiohydrolase TrCel7A produced in Nicotiana benthamiana reveals limitations of cellulase production in plants by host-specific post-translational modifications
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Sustainable production of biofuels from lignocellulose feedstocks depends on cheap enzymes for degradation of such biomass. Plants offer a safe and cost‐effective production platform for biopharmaceuticals, vaccines and ... -
Incentivising open ecological data using blockchain technology
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-09-07)Research centred on understanding scientists’ attitudes towards open data in ecology and evolution point to an increased acceptance of and willingness to engage in open data practices1,2, but also identifies common threads ... -
An increase in food production in Europe could dramatically affect farmland biodiversity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-09-02)Conversion of semi-natural habitats, such as field margins, fallows, hedgerows, grassland, woodlots and forests, to agricultural land could increase agricultural production and help meet rising global food demand. Yet, the ... -
Increased above‐ground resource allocation is a likely precursor for independent evolutionary origins of annuality in the Pooideae grass subfamily
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-05-18)Semelparous annual plants flower a single time during their 1‐yr life cycle, investing much of their energy into rapid reproduction. By contrast, iteroparous perennial plants flower multiple times over several years, and ... -
Indigenous Green Microalgae for Wastewater Treatment: Nutrient Removal and Resource Recovery for Biofuels and Bioproducts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-05-19)Microalgae biotechnology can strengthen circular economy concepts in the wastewater treatment sector. This study investigated the Norwegian microalgae strains of Tetradesmus wisconsinensis, Lobochlamys segnis, and Klebsormidium ... -
Individuals’ personality and consumption of organic food
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This paper adds to the debate on sustainable food consumption by probing the relation between individuals’ personality and choice of organic foods. We make use of the Big Five personality model which consists of the ... -
Industrial storage of root vegetables: Energy and quality aspects of existing cold-storages
(Chapter, 2019)After harvesting, the Norwegian root vegetables are normally stored at refrigerated temperatures for 5 to 7 months. During this period, up to 30% of the products are lost. The goal is to reduce the diseases, the product ... -
Inequality in health versus inequality in lifestyles
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Repeated Norwegian cross-sectional data for the period 2005 to 2011 are used to compare sources of inequality in health, as represented by self-assessed health and obesity, with sources of inequality in lifestyles that are ... -
Infection biology as the basis of integrated control of apple canker (Neonectria ditissima) in Northern Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-01-25)Background: European canker, caused by Neonectria ditissima, is a disease of worldwide importance in apple production, yet knowledge about it is limited, highly regional and sometimes contradictory. This is an obstacle to ... -
Inferring Surface Albedo Prediction Error Linked to Forest Structure at High Latitudes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-05-17)Predicting the surface albedo of a forest of a given species composition or plant functional type is complicated by the wide range of structural attributes it may display. Accurate characterizations of forest structure are ... -
Influence of Arctic light conditions on crop production and quality
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-04-10)The natural light conditions above the Arctic Circle are unique in terms of annual variation creating special growth conditions for crop production. These include low solar elevations, very long daily photosynthetic light ... -
Influence of Baltic Agro-Environmental Conditions on Yield and Quality of Fava Bean Crops in Conventional Systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-10-23)Fava bean (Vicia faba L.) yields are featured by high variability, influenced by the agro-environmental conditions during the growing seasons. These legume crops are sensitive to hydric and heat stresses. The adaptation ... -
