(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Abstract Tight control of gene expression networks required for adipose tissue formation and plasticity is essential for adaptation to energy needs and environmental cues. However, the mechanisms that orchestrate ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2021)We exposed the microbiome derived from two species of cod, from the outer and inner Oslo fjord to extracts derived from car tire rubber. To determine toxicity we look at growth rate and bacterial diversity as endpoints. ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2013)The WEE1-inhibitor MK-1775 is currently in clinical trials as an anti-cancer drug. In response to DNA damage, human cells activate cell cycle checkpoints to temporarily halt cell cycle progression, and this helps facilitating ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Little is known about the evolution of cold tolerance in polar plant species and how they differ from temperate relatives. To gain insight into their biology and the evolution of cold tolerance, we compared the molecular ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Examining the supposition that local-scale competition drives macroevolutionary patterns has become a familiar goal in fossil biodiversity studies. However, it is an elusive goal, hampered by inadequate confirmation of ...

-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)In this study, we analyzed long‐term trends in calcium (Ca) concentrations for 70 Norwegian lakes spanning a broad geographical range and for a wide range of ambient drivers. A striking decline in Ca concentrations was ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2016)Genetic assimilation emerges from selection on phenotypic plasticity. Yet, commonly used quantitative genetics models of linear reaction norms considering intercept and slope as traits do not mimic the full process of ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Abstract Human activity and associated landscape modifications alter the movements of animals with consequences for populations and ecosystems worldwide. Species performing long‐distance movements are thought to be ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2019)Reproductive output in alpine plants depend on abiotic and biotic factors. Alpine topography creates microhabitats for plants, with abiotic factors, like temperature, snow cover and soil moisture playing an important role ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)Teleost fishes comprise more than half of all vertebrate species, yet genomic data are only available for 0.2% of their diversity. Here, we present whole genome sequencing data for 66 new species of teleosts, vastly expanding ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Atlantic cod has lost the Major Histocompatibility complex class II pathway – central to pathogen presentation, humoral response and immunity. Here, we investigate the immunological response of Atlantic cod subsequent to ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)By whole-genome sequencing of resistant mutants, a putative receptor for plantaricin JK, a two-peptide bacteriocin produced by some Lactobacillus plantarum strains, was identified in Lactobacillus plantarum NCFB 965 and ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Calcium (Ca) is an essential element for almost all living organisms. Here, we examined global variation and controls of freshwater Ca concentrations, using 440 599 water samples from 43 184 inland water sites in 57 ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Abstract In recent years, unexplained declines in lake total phosphorus (TP) concentrations have been observed at northern latitudes (> 42°N latitude) where most of the world's lakes are found. We compiled data from 389 ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Wildlife-vehicle collision (WVC) is one of the major causes of wildlife mortality and a concern for conservationists worldwide. The study of roadkill data that can be used to develop appropriate measures and strategies for ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)Elevated temperature causes metabolism and respiration to increase in poikilothermic organisms. We hypothesized that invertebrate consumers will therefore require increasingly carbon-rich diets in a warming environment ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)The Antarctic ecosystem represents a remote region far from point sources of pollution. Still, Antarctic marine predators, such as seabirds, are exposed to organohalogen contaminants (OHCs) which may induce adverse health ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Bumblebees can be exposed to neonicotinoid pesticides through nectar and pollen collected from treated crops, which can cause lethal and sublethal effects in these nontarget pollinators. However, the body distribution of ...
