Flowering physiology and cold resistance of Potentilla palustris (L.) Scop., a wild relative of the strawberry
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Environmental control of growth and flowering and the freezing tolerance of two Norwegian populations of Potentilla palustris (L.) Scop. were studied under controlled environment conditions. Under short day (SD; 10 h) ... -
Modification of sunlight radiation through colored photo-selective nets affects anthocyanin profile in Vaccinium spp. berries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Objectives In recent years, the interest on the effects of the specific wavelengths of the light spectrum on growth and metabolism of plants has been increasing markedly. The present study covers the effect of modified ... -
Harmful Effects of Nanoparticles on Animals
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Since several years nanoparticles (NPs) are produced by industries and used in several fields of activities. They are finally found in aquatic and terrestrial environments, where they are ingested by living organisms in ... -
Forest Parameter Prediction Using an Image-Based Point Cloud: A Comparison of Semi-ITC with ABA
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Image-based point clouds obtained using aerial photogrammetry share many characteristics with point clouds obtained by airborne laser scanning (ALS). Two approaches have been used to predict forest parameters from ALS: the ... -
Anthocyanin Profile in Berries of Wild and Cultivated Vaccinium spp. along Altitudinal Gradients in the Alps
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Vaccinium spp. berries provide some of the best natural sources of anthocyanins. In the wild bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.), a clear increasing trend in anthocyanin biosynthesis has been reported toward northern latitudes ... -
Investigating individual preferences in rating and ranking conjoint experiments. A case study on semi-hard cheese
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-01)Stated preference conjoint experiments and self-explicated measures based on rating and ranking approaches were conducted to investigate Norwegian consumers’ choices among healthier and organically produced semi-hard ... -
A carbon balance of Norway: terrestrial and aquatic carbon fluxes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-02-07)Northernlandscapes accumulate carbon in vegetation and soils while rivers transport significant amounts of land-derived carbon to coastal areas. Here, we quantify carbon sources and sinks in main ecosystems (forests, ... -
Variation in gluten quality parameters of spring wheat varieties of different origin grown in contrasting environments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-02-15)The aim of this study was to investigate variation in protein content and gluten viscoelastic properties in wheat genotypes grown in two mega-environments of contrasting climates: the southeast of Norway and Minnesota, ... -
Effects of supplementing mid-lactation dairy cows with seaweed and vitamin E on plasma and milk α-tocopherol and antibody response to immunization
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-03-18)The objective of the current experiment was to compare the effects of supplementing mid-lactation dairy cows with all-rac-α-tocopheryl acetate (SyntvE), RRR-α-tocopheryl acetate (NatvE) or seaweed meal (Seaweed) in the ... -
Radiative forcing bias of simulated surface albedo modifications linked to forest cover changes at northern latitudes

Marine ecotoxicity of nitramines, transformation products of amine-based carbon capture technology
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-05-14)In the context of reducing CO2 emissions to the atmosphere, chemical absorption with amines is emerging as the most advanced technology for post-combustion CO2 capture from exhaust gases of fossil fuel power plants. Despite ... -
Associational relationships at multiple spatial scales affect forest damage by moose
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-07-15)Increasing abundance of large herbivores combined with changes in forestry practices has led to increased forest damage in many temperate and boreal forest areas. The role of alternative forage as a driver for browsing ... -
Performance of the Endemic Alpine Herb Primula scandinavica in a Changing European Mountain Landscape
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-08)This paper reports on the performance of the red-listed Primula scandinavica, endemic to Scandinavia. The study took place in Jotunheimen, Norway. We evaluated occurrence, density and sexual reproduction variables (number ... -
Fungal symbionts of the spruce bark beetle synthesize the beetle aggregation pheromone 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-08-25)Tree-killing bark beetles depend on aggregation pheromones to mass-attack their host trees and overwhelm their resistance. The beetles are always associated with phytopathogenic ophiostomatoid fungi that probably assist ... -
