Effects of diet structure and feed availability on passage rate and nutrients digestibility
(Master thesis, 2014-08-12)The purpose of the experiment was to test the following hypotheses: birds have tendency for over-consumption of feed, and the extent of over-consumption varies through the day after a starvation period. Further, the ... -
Effects of dietary oxidation status and vitamin E level on performance, fillet quality and robustness to acute stress in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)
(Master thesis, 2012-05-18)The effects of oxidized dietary lipid and the role of vitamin E on the growth performance, biometric traits, blood parameters, muscle pH and fillet quality of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) were evaluated after a 79-day ... -
Effects of different cage environments on social behaviour and some behavioural welfare indicators in adult pair housed silver fox vixens (Vulpes vulpes) in autumn
(Master thesis, 2010-11-16)In recent years there has been an increasing concern for the welfare of animals in the fur production, especially regarding the housing conditions. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of two different housing ... -
Effects of different light intensities, light spectra and temperatures on the growth and fatty acid composition of the microalgae Acutodesmus obliquus
(Master thesis, 2019)The subject of this thesis were the effects of cultivation of different light intensities, spectral light areas and temperatures on growth and fatty acid composition in the microalgae Acutodesmus obliquus. While previous ... -
Effects of environmental enrichment on social cohesion, aggressive behavior and telencephalon cell proliferation in Atlantic salmon parr
(Master thesis, 2023)Much is known about the life cycle and growth of the Atlantic salmon, but there has been less focus on the behaviour and neurobiology of these animals in captivity and how they interact with each other and their environment. ... -
Effects of extruded pellets on physical feed quality and digestion behavior in dairy cows
(Master thesis, 2018)This thesis consists of a literature study and a presentation of an experimental work. The literature review contains knowledge of raw ingredients, rumen digestion of starch and protein and feed processing techniques. The ... -
Effects of fat soluble vitamins on viral infection and antiviral responses in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) erythrocytes
(Master thesis, 2017)Viral diseases are vital challenges in the aquaculture industry. In Norway, heart- and skeletal muscle inflammation (HSMI) is one of the major viral diseases affecting Atlantic salmon. In mammals, low vitamin D has been ... -
Effects of functional ingredients from yeast in diets for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), from two genetic backgrounds, on growth performance and nutrient utilization
(Master thesis, 2021)The overall aim of this thesis was to determine effects of functional ingredients in diets for Atlantic salmon, extracted from non- saccharomyces yeast, on growth performance and feed utilization. A 13 week (7 weeks in ... -
Effects of gamma radiation on growth and development in Arabidopsis thaliana
(Master thesis, 2015-07-28)Different types of abiotic stresses are known to have strong impact on morphological development of plants. Exposure of plants to ionizing radiation such as gamma radiation is potentially damaging, but effects may vary ... -
Effects of gradual adaptation to separation for calves on growth, feed intake and rumination in cow-calf contact system
(Master thesis, 2022)As animal welfare concerns are increasing, so is the interest in cow-calf contact (CCC). In CCC, the cow and calf go together for an extended period in dairy production. Compared to normal practice were the calf are separated ... -
Effects of light quality and temperature on elongation growth, dormancy and bud burst in Norway spruce (Picea Abies) and subalpine fir (Abies Lasiocarpa)
(Master thesis, 2015-07-16)Elongation growth and bud development in northern perennials is under photoperiodic control. This preparation for a colder season is induced by a shorter day than the critical day for growth and development. Light quality ... -
Effects of oil exposure and elevated temperature on the liver transcriptome in polar cod (Boreogadus saida)
(Master thesis, 2014-08-13)Expansion of petroleum-related activities in the Arctic has raised concerns about the environment and the adverse effects of potential oil spill on exposed Arctic marine organisms. Additionally, the Arctic is undergoing ... -
Effects of replacing fish oil with microalgae biomass (Schizochytrium spp) as a source of n-3 LC-PUFA to Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) on growth performance, fillet quality and fatty acid composition
(Master thesis, 2017)Low levels of EFA in fish feed as a result of changes in diet composition brings a need of finding a novel ingredient that will supplement Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) in fish feed. Microalgae have ability of producing ... -
The effects of SNP-density and sample size on G-REML estimates of genetic and genic variance
(Master thesis, 2021) -
Effects of storage time, temperature and modified atmosphere on sensory quality and health related compounds in fresh-cut swede and turnip
(PhD Thesis;2015:9, Doctoral thesis, 2017-07-06)Introducing new fresh-cut vegetable products onto the market may increase vegetable consumption. Usually the availability of Norwegian grown vegetables for fresh-cut production is limited by a short growing season. However, ... -
Effects of supplement feed on cattle behaviour on pasture
(Master thesis, 2015-01-28)Genetics, supplement feed, environment, and management affect cattle behaviours and diurnal patterns on pasture, thus reflecting individual and/or group difference in time budgets. The aim of this study was to investigate ... -
Effects of temperature on dehydrin expression in mature somatic embryos of Norway spruce (Picea abies)
(Master thesis, 2018)Abstract: This master thesis deals with genetic and epigenetic effects in two genotypes (denoted A2K and B10) of in vitro derived somatic embryos (SEs) of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst at different temperature ... -
Effects of the downstream processing of yeast on the gastrointestinal health of Atlantic salmon during seawater transfer
