    • Recruitment to the Norwegian fishing fleet: storylines, paradoxes, and pragmatism in Norwegian fisheries and recruitment policy 

      Sønvisen, Signe Annie (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      The majority of actors in the Norwegian fisheries consider recruitment of fishers to be the main future challenge for the Norwegian fishing fleet. As fleet recruitment is a highly politicized field, the problem of how to mitigate the recruitment problem is a subject of heavy debate. Some argue that recruitment problems are caused by low fleet profitability, while others argue that recruitment ...
    • Size selectivity of redfish (Sebastes spp.) in the Northeast Atlantic using grid-based selection systems for trawls 

      Herrmann, Bent; Sistiaga, Manu Berrondo; Larsen, Roger B.; Nielsen, Kåre Nolde (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Using experimental data and a model to predict size selection based on morphological data, we investigated size selection of redfish (Sebastes spp.) in the grid-based selection systems used in Northeast Atlantic trawls. We found that not all redfish make physical contact with the spacing between the bars in the sorting grids while they pass in the direction of the codend, and therefore the ...
    • Sequence Analysis of the Genome of Piscine Orthoreovirus (PRV) Associated with Heart and Skeletal Muscle Inflammation (HSMI) in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) 

      Markussen, Turhan; Dahle, Maria Krudtaa; Tengs, Torstein; Løvoll, Marie Therese; Finstad, Øystein Wessel; Wiik-Nielsen, Christer R.; Grove, Søren; Lauksund, Reidunn Silje; Robertsen, Børre; Rimstad, Espen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Piscine orthoreovirus (PRV) is associated with heart- and skeletal muscle inflammation (HSMI) of farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). We have performed detailed sequence analysis of the PRV genome with focus on putative encoded proteins, compared with prototype strains from mammalian (MRV T3D)- and avian orthoreoviruses (ARV-138), and aquareovirus (GCRV-873). Amino acid identities were low for ...
    • Transgene and immune gene expression following intramuscular injection of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) with DNA-releasing PLGA nano- and microparticles 

      Hølvold, Linn Benjaminsen; Fredriksen, Børge Nilsen; Bøgwald, Jarl; Dalmo, Roy Ambli (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      The use of poly-(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) particles as carriers for DNA delivery has received considerable attention in mammalian studies. DNA vaccination of fish has been shown to elicit durable transgene expression, but no reports exist on intramuscular administration of PLGA-encapsulated plasmid DNA (pDNA). We injected Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) intramuscularly with a plasmid ...
    • Stakeholder Influence and Optimal Regulations: A Common-Agency Analysis of Ecosystem-Based Fisheries Regulations 

      Aanesen, Margrethe; Armstrong, Claire W. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      One aspect of ecosystem-based management is to include new stakeholders. When an environmental NGO (ENGO) gets a say in the fisheries management, this will affect the authorities' optimal regulation. Combining a principal-agent model and a steady-state bioeconomic model, we show that under symmetric information the authorities will moderate their use of regulation as a response to the ENGO's increased ...
    • Pushed or pulled? Understanding fishery exit in a welfare society context 

      Johnsen, Jahn Petter; Vik, Jostein (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      For a long time the number of fishers in Norway has declined. Is the decline the result of an increasingly difficult situation for Norwegian fishers or can other factors have had an impact? Or in other words: are fishers pushed out or pulled out of the fisheries? Our analyses are based on a survey among retired fishers and suggest several reasons for exit: in addition to structural push and pull ...
    • Bomkast om privatisering av havet 

      Johnsen, Jahn Petter (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2014)
      Anmeldelse av Henning Røed, "Fiskehistorier" Forlaget Manifest, 2013
    • Kystsamfunn, endring og fiskerienes kulturarv 

      Johnsen, Jahn Petter (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2014)

    • Fra krise til krise - forventninger og svik i norsk fiskerinæring 

      Holm, Petter; Finstad, Bjørn-Petter; Henriksen, Edgar (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012)
    • CpG- and LPS-activated MAPK signaling in in vitro cultured salmon (Salmo salar) mononuclear phagocytes 

      Iliev, Dimitri Borisov; Hansen, Tom Egil; Jørgensen, Sven Martin; Krasnov, Aleksei; Jørgensen, Jorunn B (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      The Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) are involved in transmitting intracellular signals downstream of diverse cell surface receptors and mediate the response to ligands such as growth factors, hormones and cytokines. In addition, MAPK are critically involved in the innate immune response to pathogen-derived substances, commonly referred to as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), ...
    • Homing of Antigen-Presenting Cells in Head Kidney and Spleen – Salmon Head Kidney Hosts Diverse APC Types 

      Iliev, Dimitri Borisov; Thim, Hanna Leena; Lagos, Leidy; Olsen, randi; Jørgensen, Jorunn B (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Lymph nodes and spleen are major organs where mammalian antigen-presenting cells (APCs) initiate and orchestrate Ag-specific immune responses. Unlike mammals, teleosts lack lymph nodes and an interesting question is whether alternative organs may serve as sites for antigen presentation in teleosts. In the current study, fluorescent ovalbumin (Ova) and CpG oligonucleotides (ODNs) injected intra-abdominally ...
    • CpG oligonucleotides bind TLR9 and RRM-Containing proteins in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) 

      Iliev, Dimitar Borisov; SkjÆveland, ingrid; Jørgensen, Jorunn B (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Background: Bacterial DNA is well-known for its potent immunostimulatory properties which have been attributed to the abundance of CpG dinucleotides within the genomes of prokaryotes. Research has found that mammalian TLR9 is a receptor which mediates the immune response to CpG DNA; however, its functional properties in non-mammalian vertebrates are still poorly characterized. Leukocytes isolated ...
    • Adjuvants and immunostimulants in fish vaccines: Current knowledge and future perspectives. 

      Tafalla, C; Bøgwald, Jarl; Dalmo, Roy Ambli (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Vaccination is the most adequate method to control infectious diseases that threaten the aquaculture industry worldwide. Unfortunately, vaccines are usually not able to confer protection on their own; especially those vaccines based on recombinant antigens or inactivated pathogens. Therefore, the use of adjuvants or immunostimulants is often necessary to increase the vaccine efficacy. Traditional ...
    • Cellular Antioxidant Effect of Four Bromophenols from the Red Algae, Vertebrata lanosa 

      Olsen, Elisabeth Klungerbo; Hansen, Espen; Isaksson, Johan; Andersen, Jeanette hammer (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Three known bromophenols, 2,3-dibromo-4,5-dihydroxybenzylaldehyde (1), 2,2′,3-tribromo-3′,4,4′,5-tetrahydroxy 6′-hydroxymethyldiphenylmethane (2) and bis(2, 3-dibromo-4,5-dihydroxylbenzyl) ether (3), and one new one, 5,5″-oxybis(methylene)bis (3-bromo-4-(2′,3′-dibromo-4′,5′-dihydroxylbenzyl)benzene-1,2-diol) (4), were isolated from an extract of the red alga, Vertebrata lanosa. The antioxidant ...
    • Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Activities of Barettin 

      Lind, Karianne Fredenfeldt; Hansen, Espen; Østerud, Bjarne; Eilertsen, Karl-Erik; Bayer, Annette; Engqvist, Stig Olov Magnus; Leszczak, Kinga; Jørgensen, Trond Ø.; Andersen, Jeanette hammer (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      In this paper, we present novel bioactivity for barettin isolated from the marine sponge Geodia barretti. We found that barettin showed strong antioxidant activity in biochemical assays as well as in a lipid peroxidation cell assay. A de-brominated synthetic analogue of barettin did not show the same activity in the antioxidant cell assay, indicating that bromine is important for cellular activity. ...
    • Aldri mer 18. april! 

      Finstad, Bjørn-Petter; Holm, Petter (Chronicle; Kronikk, 2013-04-18)
      Den 18. april 1989 er et viktig vendepunkt i norsk fiskerihistorie. Det var den dagen Fiskeridepartementet stoppet kystflåtens fiske etter torsk nord for 62. breddegrad - midt i den tradisjonelle sesongen. Reaksjonene lot ikke vente på seg. Historiens første totalforbud mot å fiske torsk var “et sjokk til dyp ettertanke”, het det i Fiskeribladet.

    • Change in Fish Community Structure in the Barents Sea 

      Aschan, Michaela; Fossheim, Maria; Greenacre, Michael; Primicerio, Raul (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Change in oceanographic conditions causes structural alterations in marine fish communities, but this effect may go undetected as most monitoring programs until recently mainly have focused on oceanography and commercial species rather than on whole ecosystems. In this paper, the objective is to describe the spatial and temporal changes in the Barents Sea fish community in the period 1992–2004 while ...
