(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background: Reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydrogen peroxide and superoxide, trigger biodegradation of polymer-based nanoparticles (NPs) bearing pinacol-type boronic ester groups. These NPs may selectively release ...

Paleorecords reveal the increased temporal instability of species diversity under biodiversity loss (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Ongoing climate change threatens biodiversity and directly affects the stability of plant-animal communities. However, it is unclear how the species diversity of biological communities responds to natural climate warming, ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)Degradation-specific processes and variation in laboratory protocols can bias the DNA sequence composition from samples of ancient or historic origin. Here, we identify a novel artifact in sequences from historic samples ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Diapause at depth is considered an integral part of the life cycle of Calanus copepods, but few studies have focused on the Arctic species Calanus glacialis and Calanus hyperboreus. By analyzing a large set of pan-arctic ...

Parallel Evolution of Complex Centipede Venoms Revealed by Comparative Proteotranscriptomic Analyses (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Centipedes are among the most ancient groups of venomous predatory arthropods. Extant species belong to five orders, but our understanding of the composition and evolution of centipede venoms is based almost exclusively ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2015)Dinoflagellates are microscopic aquatic eukaryotes with huge genomes and an unusual cell regulation. For example, most genes are present in numerous copies and all copies seem to be obligatorily transcribed. The consequence ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2024)Molecular phylogenetics has revolutionized the taxonomy of crustose lichens and revealed an extensive amount of cryptic diversity. Resolving the relationships between genera in the crustose lichen family Tephromelataceae ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Lipids generally represent the major matrix contributing to the absorptive capacity for hydrophobic organic contaminants in aquatic ecosystems. The aim of the present study was to determine whether contaminants partition ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2013)Precise estimation of toxicity is essential in the risk assessment of hydrophobic organic compounds (HOCs). Toxicity testing of HOCs in aquatic bioassays is particularly challenging due to loss of substance from the water ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Scientists have warned decision-makers about the severe consequences of the global environmental crisis since the 1970s. Yet ecological degradation continues and little has been done to address climate change. We investigated ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)The genomes of hybrids often show substantial deviations from the features of the parent genomes, including genomic instabilities characterized by chromosomal rearrangements, gains, and losses. This plastic genomic ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2013)The lack of recovery in Norwegian populations of the kelp Saccharina latissima (Linnaeus) C. E. Lane, C. Mayes, Druehl & G. W. Saunders after a large-scale disturbance that occurred sometime between the late 1990s and early ...
