    • Dimorphism in cryptophytes—The case of Teleaulax amphioxeia/Plagioselmis prolonga and its ecological implications 

      Altenburger, Andreas; Blossom, Hannah E.; Garcia-Cuetos, Lydia; Jakobsen, Hans H.; Carstensen, Jacob; Lundholm, Nina; Hansen, Per Juel; Haraguchi, Lumi (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-11)
      Growing evidence suggests that sexual reproduction might be common in unicellular organisms, but observations are sparse. Limited knowledge of sexual reproduction constrains understanding of protist ecology. Although <i>Teleaulax amphioxeia</i> and <i>Plagioselmis prolonga</i> are common marine cryptophytes worldwide, and are also important plastid donors for some kleptoplastic ciliates and ...

    • Estimating selectivity of experimental diamond (T0) and turned mesh (T90) codends in multi-species Mediterranean bottom trawl 

      Petetta, Andrea; Herrmann, Bent; Virgili, Massimo; De Marco, Rocco; Canduci, Giovanni; Veli, Daniel Li; Bargione, Giada; Vasapollo, Claudio; Lucchetti, Alessandro (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-11)
      This paper evaluates the effect of changing from a diamond mesh codend (T0) to a 90° turned mesh codend (T90) on the size selectivity of seven commercially important species in the Mediterranean bottom trawl fishery. In sea trials conducted in the north-western Adriatic, two experimental codends made of 54 mm nominal mesh size netting and differing only in mesh configuration were alternately mounted ...

    • Temperature-dependent egg production and egg hatching rates of small egg-carrying and broadcast-spawning copepods Oithona similis, Microsetella norvegica and Microcalanus pusillus 

      Barth-Jensen, Coralie Marie Christine; Koski, Marja; Varpe, Øystein; Glad, Peter; Wangensteen, Owen Simon; Præbel, Kim; Svensen, Camilla (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-07)
      Reproductive rates of copepods are temperature-dependent, but poorly known for small copepods at low temperatures, hindering the predictions of population dynamics and secondary production in high-latitude ecosystems. We investigated egg hatching rates, hatching success and egg production of the small copepods <i>Oithona similis</i> and <i>Microsetella norvegica</i> (sac spawners) and <i>Microcalanus ...

    • Prey consumption rates and growth of piscivorous brown trout in a subarctic watercourse 

      Jensen, Hallvard; Amundsen, Per-Arne; Elliott, J. Malcolm; Bøhn, Thomas; Aspholm, Paul Eric (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2006-02-28)
      Prey consumption rates of piscivorous brown trout <i>Salmo trutta</i> were studied in the Pasvik watercourse, which forms the border between Norway and Russia. Estimates of food consumption in the field were similar to or slightly less than maximum values from a bioenergetic model. The piscivore diet consisted mainly of vendace <i>Coregonus albula</i> with a smaller number of whitefish <i>Coregonus ...

    • Predation by brown trout (Salmo trutta) along a diversifying prey community gradient 

      Jensen, Hallvard; Kahilainen, Kimmo K.; Amundsen, Per-Arne; Gjelland, Karl øystein; Tuomaala, Anti; Malinen, Tommy; Bøhn, Thomas (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2008-08-07)
      Predation has a fundamental role in aquatic ecosystems, but the relative importance of factors governing prey selection by predators remains controversial. In this study, we contrast five lakes of a subarctic watershed to explore how prey community characteristics affect prey selection and growth rate of the common top predator, brown trout (<i>Salmo trutta</i>). The lakes constitute a distinct ...

      Alsos, Inger Greve; Lavergne, Sebastien; Merkel, Marie Kristine Føreid; Boleda, Marti; Lammers, Youri; Alberti, Adriana; Pouchon, Charles; Denoeud, France; Pitelkova, Iva; Pușcaș, Mihai; Roquet, Cristina; Hurdu, Bogdan-Iuliu; Thuiller, Wilfried; Zimmermann, Niklaus E.; Hollingsworth, Peter M.; Coissac, Eric (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-04-01)
      Genome skimming has the potential for generating large data sets for DNA barcoding and wider biodiversity genomic studies, particularly via the assembly and annotation of full chloroplast (cpDNA) and nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) sequences. We compare the success of genome skims of 2051 herbarium specimens from Norway/Polar regions with 4604 freshly collected, silica gel dried specimens mainly from ...

      <i>Background</i> - The cysteine protease legumain is increased in patients with atherosclerosis, but its causal role in atherogenesis and cardiovascular disease is still unclear. The aim of the study was to investigate the association of legumain with clinical outcome in a large cohort of patients with acute coronary syndrome.<p><p> <i>Methods and Results</i> - Serum levels of legumain were ...

    • An assessment on potential long-term health effects caused by antibiotic resistance marker genes in genetically modified organisms based on antibiotic usage and resistance patterns in Norway. 

      Nes, Ingolf; Berdal, Knut G; Kruse, Hilde; Mikalsen, Arne; Nielsen, Kaare Magne; Sundsfjord, Arnfinn; Yazdankhah, Siamak Pour (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2005-11-25)
      Usage of antibiotics selects for resistant bacteria, resulting in reduced treatment options, and increased morbidity and mortality from microbial infections. Development of resistance in susceptible bacteria can occur through spontaneous mutation or horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Our current understanding of resistance development in bacterial pathogens is more descriptive ...

    • Oxidative stress levels and oral bacterial milieu in the saliva from pregnant vs. non-pregnant women 

      Wagle, Madhu; Basnet, Purusotam; Vårtun, Åse; Trovik, Tordis A; Acharya, Ganesh (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-03)
      <i>Background</i> - Saliva plays a significant role in maintaining oral health and oral bacterial milieu. Difference in oxidative stress (OS) levels in saliva in conjunction with bacterial load between pregnant and non-pregnant women has not been studied previously. We hypothesized that the physiological changes in pregnancy alter oral bacterial milieu by promoting growth of <i>Streptococcus mutans</i> ...

    • Unique stable isotope signatures of large cyclonic events as a tracer of soil moisture dynamics in the semiarid subtropics 

      Skrzypek, Grzegorz; Dogramaci, Shawan; Page, Gerald; Rouillard, Alexandra; Grierson, Pauline (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-09-09)
      Evaporative flux from soils in arid and semi-arid climates can be very high and may substantially reduce soil moisture retained between infrequent rainfall events. Direct measurement of the evaporative losses from soils is technically challenging. However, environmental tracers such as water stable hydrogen and oxygen isotope composition can be used to calculate evaporation rates if the initial ...
