Ghost fishing by self-baited lost, abandoned or discarded pots in snow crab (Chionoecetes opilio) fishery
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-11-14)Unintended continuous capture or so-called “ghost fishing”, by abandoned, lost, or otherwise discarded fishing gear produces negative environmental impact on marine life and nature conservation. The risk of ghost fishing in pots could be high due to potential self-baiting resulting from mortality of ghost fished catch. Self-baiting may increase ghost fishing by further attracting marine organisms, ... -

On the origin of bird's nest fungi: Phylogenomic analyses of fungi in the Nidulariaceae (Agaricales, Basidiomycota)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-07)Nidulariaceae, also known as bird’s nest fungi, is an understudied group of mushroom-forming fungi. The common name is derived from their nest-like morphology. Bird’s nest fungi are ubiquitous wood decomposers or saprobes on dung. Recent studies showed that species in the Nidulariaceae form a monophyletic group with five sub-clades. However, phylogenetic relationships among genera and placement ... -
Bioprospecting of inhibitors of EPEC virulence from metabolites of marine actinobacteria from the Arctic Sea
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-30)A considerable number of antibacterial agents are derived from bacterial metabolites. Similarly, numerous known compounds that impede bacterial virulence stem from bacterial metabolites. Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is a notable human pathogen causing intestinal infections, particularly affecting infant mortality in developing regions. These infections are characterized by microvilli ... -
Efficient and sustainable: innovative pot design for a Mediterranean small-scale fishery
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-06-28)Pots are traditional fishing gear type largely employed in Mediterranean Small Scale Fisheries (SSFs). Their often higher species selectivity and catch quality compared to other gear types such as passive set nets or trawls are appealing characteristics for reducing the impact on benthic communities and diversifying fishing effort in the region. Despite this, in some SSFs, pots are still rarely used ... -
