      Præbel, Kim; Knudsen, Rune; Siwertsson, Anna; Karhunen, Markku; Kahilainen, Kimmo K.; Ovaskainen, Otso; Østbye, Kjartan; Peruzzi, Stefano; Fevolden, Svein-Erik; Amundsen, Per-Arne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Understanding how a monophyletic lineage of a species diverges into several adaptive forms has received increased attention in recent years, but the underlying mechanisms in this process are still under debate. Postglacial fishes are excellent model organisms for exploring this process, especially the initial stages of ecological speciation, as postglacial lakes represent replicated discrete ...
    • Fauna crime: elucidating the potential source and introduction history of European smelt (Osmerus eperlanus L.) into Lake Storsjøen, Norway 

      Hagenlund, Mari; Østbye, Kjartan; Langdal, Kjell; Hassve, Marius Hagen; Pettersen, Ruben Alexander; Anderson, Eric; Gregersen, Finn; Præbel, Kim (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-05-01)
      The ability to accurately determine the original source of invading species offers several powerful applications in invasive species ecology and management and may enable important information on the invading species in its native habitat. Lake Storsjøen in South-Central Norway was recently found to have been subjected to an illegal translocation of the European smelt (Osmerus eperlanus). The ...
