Macronutrient balancing in free-ranging populations of moose
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-07-15)At northern latitudes, large spatial and temporal variation in the nutritional composition of available foods poses challenges to wild herbivores trying to satisfy their nutrient requirements. Studies conducted in mostly ... -
Maize straw application as an interlayer improves organic carbon and total nitrogen concentrations in the soil profile: A four-year experiment in a saline soil
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-06-09)Soil salinization is a critical environmental issue restricting agricultural production. Deep return of straw to the soil as an interlayer (at 40 cm depth) has been a popular practice to alleviate salt stress. However, the ... -
Major shifts in species' relative abundance in grassland mixtures alongside positive effects of species diversity in yield: a continental-scale experiment
(Journal article, 2017)1. Increased species diversity promotes ecosystem function; however, the dynamics of multi-speciesgrassland systems over time and their role in sustaining higher yields generated by increased diver-sity are still poorly ... -
Major transcriptomic differences are induced by warmer temperature conditions experienced during asexual and sexual reproduction in Fragaria vesca ecotypes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-07-14)A major challenge for plants in a rapidly changing climate is to adapt to rising temperatures. Some plants adapt to temperature conditions by generating an epigenetic memory that can be transmitted both meiotically and ... -
Mammalian community responses in relation to anthropogenic disturbances and resource gradients in the shade coffee forest ecosystem of Southwestern Ethiopia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-05-24)Understanding the effects of variation in resource availability and habitat disturbance on the ecology of mammals is vital for successful conservation management. In this study, we examined how human disturbances, resource ... -
Management of rented farmland in Norway: Factors impacting on tenants’ decisions to make investments
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-10-31)Renting agricultural land is a common practice in many countries. The possibility to rent land provides farmers with increased flexibility in terms of production volume. Land renting may have various effects on farmland ... -
Management of seed-borne Sirococcus conigenus on Norway spruce by fungicide seed treatment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-04)Seedling blight caused by Sirococcus conigenus was recently reported on Norway spruce (Picea abies) from Norwegian forest nurseries. The inoculum source was found to be infected seeds. In a Petri dish assay, the fungicide ... -
Management Strategies to Improve the Economics of Sheep Farms in Norwegian Coastal and Fjord Areas—The Effect of Animal Size and Capacities for Rangeland Utilisation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-05-04)The morphological and productive aspects of Norwegian sheep have developed over time and adapted to the diverse environment of the country. Before 1900, native Norwegian sheep were crossed with UK breeds to attain higher ... -
