Evaluation of farmers vulnerability from a multidimensional point of view in the coastal plain of Tabasco, Mexico
(Master thesis, 2013-09-13)The evaluation of agro-ecosystems sustainability requires transforming complex aspects in others, more simple, that permit to point out tendencies at a system level. To do so, indicators are an efficient tool to get a ... -
Evaluation of feeding value of cereals and legumes for ruminants using in vitro gas production
(Master thesis, 2020)This thesis consists of a literature background and laboratory experiment. The literature review contains knowledge of raw ingredients, ruminal digestion of nutrients and feed evaluation methods of ruminants. Feed quality ... -
Evaluation of grants given to maintain semi-natural grasslands in Nord-Trøndelag, Central-Norway
(Grønn kunnskap e;, Research report, 2004)Since 1993, Norwegian governmental subsidies have been applied to preserve valuable semi-natural grasslands in Norway. After 8 years of management and payments, the effects of the subsidies were investigated in the county ... -
Evaluation of growth, milk and manure production in Norwegian dairy goats in one highland of Tanzania 30 years after introduction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Dairy goats have been imported into Tanzania since the 1960s to improve the milk production of Small East African (SEA) goats through crossbreeding. The SEA goats have poor genetic potential for milk. Although crossbreeding ... -
Evaluation of GWAS Method Performance Focusing on Population Stratification and Cryptic Relatedness
(Master thesis, 2015-05-28)Genetic association studies are primarily used to identify genes associated with complex disease. It can be conducted by genotyping intentionally selected or randomly chosen markers. Numerous statistical and computational ... -

Evaluation of Liquid Array Diagnostics for microbiota-based diagnosis of dysbiosis
(Master thesis, 2018)The human gut contains a complex community of microorganisms that impact our health and general well-being. Based on observed microbial patterns, a balanced composition can be defined, known as normobiosis. Deviations from ... -
Evaluation of long-read Nanopore sequencing in genome studies
(Master thesis, 2017)The development of the latest generation of sequencing technologies, known as third-generation sequencing, has revolutionized sequence assembly due to long reads compared to the short reads of second-generation sequencing ... -
Evaluation of machine learning approaches for prediction of protein coding genes in prokaryotic DNA sequences
(Master thesis, 2022)According to the National Human Genome Research Institute the amount of genomic data generated on a yearly basis is constantly increasing. This rapid growth in genomic data has led to a subsequent surge in the demand for ... -
Evaluation of machine learning methods to decode transcriptional regulation
(Master thesis, 2023)With large biological measurements made possible by the development of high-throughput technology, it allows for the study of genomic data. In transcriptional regulation the cell controls the translation of DNA to RNA, and ... -
Evaluation of Mie scatter approximation formulas for the scattering of infrared light at biological cells
(Master thesis, 2013-08-28)Infrared (IR) spectroscopy has during recent years become a very attrac- tive method for biochemical analysis of cells and tissue, since it can be ap- plied in biological material without destroying its native structure. ... -
Evaluation of models for predicting the average monthly Euro versus Norwegian krone exchange rate from financial and commodity information
(Master thesis, 2015-05-12)Many multinational companies and policy makers carry out decisions by speculat- ing exchange rate. Exchange rate is determined by the demand and supply of a currency. It depends highly on variables like imports, exports, ... -
Evaluation of novel PCR‑based method to assess gill injuries in fish caused by the cnidarian Ectopleura larynx
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Gill disease is a major threat to aquaculture of Atlantic salmon, with an unknown and likely underestimated contribution from cnidarians such as jellyfish and biofouling hydroids. To better understand the risk and thus ... -
Evaluation of pathogenicity on cereal and potato of Fusarium spp. isolated from field of Solør area
(Master thesis, 2012-10-16)Fusarium Dry Rot (Fusarium spp.) caused by fungi from the Fusarium genus is a problem of great importance in Norwegian potato production. This thesis presents results from a study on Fusarium population present in agricultural ... -
Evaluation of primary rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss ) hepatocytes suitability as a screening assay for estrogen receptor agonists
(PhD Thesis;2016:47, Doctoral thesis, 2017-07-12)Regulatory legislations on chemicals have in recent years become more stringent, requiring more toxicological evaluation. The increased toxicological testing have resulted in a stronger effort to implement the 3Rs (Refinement, ... -
Evaluation of restoration success for semi-natural and flower meadows in the Oslo municipality
(Master thesis, 2019)While cities are often overlooked as targets for conservation, ecologists have argued that the urban environment is actually a good candidate for re-creating semi-natural meadows, since these nutrient-poor grasslands prefer ... -
