    • The challenges of opportunistic sampling when comparing prevalence of plastics in diving seabirds: A multi-species example from Norway 

      Benjaminsen, Stine Charlotte; Dehnhard, Nina; Herzke, Dorte; Johnsen, Arild; Anker-Nilssen, Tycho; Bourgeon, Sophie; Collard, France; Langset, Magdalene; Christensen-Dalsgaard, Signe; Gabrielsen, Geir W. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-18)
      There is a need for baseline information about how much plastics are ingested by wildlife and potential negative consequences thereof. We analysed the frequency of occurrence (FO) of plastics >1 mm in the stomachs of five pursuit-diving seabird species collected opportunistically. Atlantic puffins (Fratercula arctica) found emaciated on beaches in SW Norway had the highest FO of plastics (58.8 %), ...

    • Molecular phylogeny of Allodia (Diptera: Mycetophilidae) constructed using genome skimming 

      Magnussen, Trude; Johnsen, Arild; Kjærandsen, Jostein; Struck, Torsten H; Søli, Geir Einar Ellefsen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-12)
      In this study, we use low-coverage shotgun sequencing of genomic DNA, commonly referred to as genome skimming, to investigate the phylogenetic relationships of the fungus gnat genus Allodia Winnertz (Mycetophilidae, Mycetophilinae, Exechiini). Nineteen specimens, representing 16 in-group and three outgroup taxa, were successfully sequenced and molecular markers of both mitochondrial and nuclear ...
