• ALPPACA - A tooL for Prokaryotic Phylogeny And Clustering Analysis 

      Kaspersen, Håkon; Fiskebeck, Eve Marie Louise Zeyl (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-29)
      A tooL for Prokaryotic Phylogeny And Clustering Analysis (ALPPACA) is a pipeline that allows both de-novo and reference-based phylogenetic analysis of prokaryotic genomes. The pipeline provides a suite of analyses tailored for different scenarios, designed to allow analysis of datasets represented by three different genetic diversity levels, all in one package. These levels of similarity influence ...
    • Sea ice reduction drives genetic differentiation among Barents Sea polar bears 

      Maduna, Simo; Aars, Jon; Fløystad, Ida; Klutsch, Cornelya; Fiskebeck, Eve Marie Louise Zeyl; Wiig, Øystein; Ehrich, Dorothee; Andersen, Magnus; Bachmann, Lutz; Derocher, Andrew E.; Nyman, Tommi; Eiken, Hans Geir; Hagen, Snorre (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-09-08)
      Loss of Arctic sea ice owing to climate change is predicted to reduce both genetic diversity and gene flow in ice-dependent species, with potentially negative consequences for their long-term viability. Here, we tested for the population-genetic impacts of reduced sea ice cover on the polar bear (<i>Ursus maritimus</i>) sampled across two decades (1995–2016) from the Svalbard Archipelago, Norway, ...
