(Master thesis, 2021)Åkerbønne (Vicia Faba L.) er en vekst med lang veksttid, noe som kan by på utfordringer ved dyrking i Norge. Målet med denne oppgaven var å undersøke frøutviklingen og modningsforløpet i åkerbønne under norske dyrkingsforhold, ... -
Functional analyses of FvMYB46-CRISPR/Cas9-edited Fragaria vesca plants
(Master thesis, 2021)One of the biggest humanitarian challenges in the world today is food security. Improving food production requires improvement in the productivity of existing crops. Plant diseases are major causators of crop yield losses, ... -
Functional characterization of putative disease resistance genes of strawberry
(Master thesis, 2021)The octoploid strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) is highly valued horticultural crop. The fruit crop is often challenged by several phytopathogens including a hemibiotrophic oomycete, Phytophthora cactorum. The pathogen has ... -
Functional interrogation of the elovl5 gene regulation in Atlantic salmon
(Master thesis, 2022)Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) and cholesterol are important for different physiological pathways including immunology. As these cannot be synthesized in the teleosts including Salmon itself, food supplement ... -
Fungicide resistance and resistance dynamics in Botrytis populations in Norway
(PhD Thesis;2022:6, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Grey mould, caused by Botrytis spp., causes serious losses in agriculturally and economically important crops worldwide. Growers in Norway have experienced grey mould control problems, and fungicide resistance in the ... -
Fusarium infection and its effects on germination and deoxynivalenol content of oats and screening for resistance by VIS-NIR spectroscopic methods
(PhD Thesis;2014:78, Doctoral thesis, 2014)Fusarium head blight (FHB) causes a great concern in Norway, and in the world at large, due to the mycotoxins produced by the causative pathogens. Different cultural practices, including deployment of resistant cultivars, ... -
Fusarium og Microdochium på såkorn - overlevelse ved lagring og betydning for spireevne
(Master thesis, 2015-02-24)I de senere årene har spiringsfusariose forårsaket av Fusarium- og Microdochium-sopper medført mangel på norskprodusert såkorn av god kvalitet, spesielt i havre. Det er derfor behov for mer kunnskap om betydning og overlevelse ... -
Fusarium poae and Fusarium langsethiae in an oat field-time point of infection and possible inoculum sources
(Master thesis, 2019)Fusarium head blight in cereals is a global issue, threatening food production and food security. Most Fusarium head blight organisms are able to produce a wide range of mycotoxins, posing human- and animal health risks ... -
Fusarium verticillioides and fumonisin management in maize in Ethiopia
(PhD Thesis;2016:18, Doctoral thesis, 2017-07-11)Fusarium species are major threats to maize production worldwide, including in Ethiopia. Little has been known about the species composition and prevalence of Fusarium spp. as well as fumonisin contamination level of maize ... -
