Characterisation of fructan accumulation in grasses and its implication for cold adaptation and overwintering
Landsem, Eirin (Master thesis, 2021)Fructans are fructose-based oligo- and polysaccharides that occur in many plants in temperate climates. Beside its main function as storage carbohydrate, fructan has been suggested to play a role in temperate adaptations, ... -
Conservation and regulation of key photoperiod regulators in the Pooideae subfamily of grasses
Young, Darshan Anthony (Master thesis, 2018)Plants have adapted to seasonal constraints of the temperate environment by exploiting annual fluctuations in day length. Well timed flowering is essential to maximize reproductive output in temperate regions with short ... -
Evolution of adaptations to temperate climate in the grass subfamily Pooideae
Schubert, Marian (PhD Thesis;2016:89, Doctoral thesis, 2016)Temperate biomes are characterized by strong temperature and photoperiod seasonality and frequently occurring frost. Temperate plants have evolved to overcome challenges like cold stress, prolonged winters and short ... -
Evolution of cold acclimation and its role in niche transition in the temperate grass subfamily Pooideae
Schubert, Marian; Grønvold, Lars; Sandve, Simen Rød; Hvidsten, Torgeir Rhoden; Fjellheim, Siri (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019) -
Evolution of flowering adaptations in temperate grasses
Paliocha, Martin (PhD Thesis;2023:64, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Grasses (Poaceae) represent an unparalleled evolutionary success story and are particularly well adapted to the environmental challenges posed by temperate habitats. Crucial to their evolutionary success in temperate ... -
Genetic Characterization of the Norwegian Apple Collection
Gilpin, Liv; Røen, Dag; Schubert, Marian; Davik, Jahn; Rumpunen, Kimmo; Gardli, Kristina Alme; Hjeltnes, Stein Harald; Alsheikh, Muath K (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Commercial fruit production in Norway is located at around latitude 60° north, demanding a careful choice of adapted cultivars. The most comprehensive collection of apple genetic resources in Norway is being kept in the ... -
Increased above‐ground resource allocation is a likely precursor for independent evolutionary origins of annuality in the Pooideae grass subfamily
Lindberg, Camilla Lorange; Hanslin, Hans Martin; Schubert, Marian; Marcussen, Thomas; Trevaskis, Ben; Preston, Jill Christine; Fjellheim, Siri (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Semelparous annual plants flower a single time during their 1‐yr life cycle, investing much of their energy into rapid reproduction. By contrast, iteroparous perennial plants flower multiple times over several years, and ... -
Independent recruitment of FRUITFULL-like transcription factors in the convergent origins of vernalization-responsive grass flowering
Paliocha, Martin; Schubert, Marian; Preston, Jill Christine; Fjellheim, Siri (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Flowering in response to low temperatures (vernalization) has evolved multiple times independently across angiosperms as an adaptation to match reproductive development with the short growing season of temperate habitats. ... -
Major niche transitions in Pooideae correlate with variation in photoperiodic flowering and evolution of CCT domain genes
Fjellheim, Siri; Young, Darshan Anthony; Paliocha, Martin; Johnsen, Sylvia Sagen; Schubert, Marian; Preston, Jill Christine (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The external cues that trigger timely flowering vary greatly across tropical and temperate plant taxa, the latter rely- ing on predictable seasonal fluctuations in temperature and photoperiod. In the grass family (Poaceae) ... -
Molekylærgenetisk karakterisering av vernaliseringsrespons i PACMAD-gras
Paliocha, Martin (Master thesis, 2018)Many plants rely on a mechanism called vernalisation response to match reproductive output with favourable environmental conditions. This trait is an important adaptation to seasonal climates, like for example at high ... -
The temporal expression pattern of MND1 and key regulators of floral transition in annual and perennial Pooideae species
Molland, Martine (Master thesis, 2021)The molecular mechanisms underlying differences in annual and perennial life-history strategies are poorly understood. However, studies have shown that perennials often exhibit delayed flowering compared to related annuals. ... -
The grass subfamily Pooideae: Cretaceous–Palaeocene origin and climate‐driven Cenozoic diversification
Schubert, Marian; Marcussen, Thomas; Meseguer, Andrea S.; Fjellheim, Siri (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
