Detection and validation of disease resistance QTL in wheat
(PhD Thesis;2018:02, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Powdery mildew (PM), Fusarium head blight (FHB) and Septoria leaf blotch (SNB) are devastating wheat diseases. Breeding of disease resistant varieties is an economical and environmentally friendly approach and is given ... -
Determination of organochlorine pesticides in the fish from freshwater lakes of Pakistan
(Master thesis, 2021)This study is a quantitative analysis of selected organochlorine pesticides in the muscle tissues of fish and water samples from Tarbela (34° N, 72° E) and Sukkur (27°N, 68°E); two major lakes with water from the river ... -
Determining factors and trajectories analysis to support system diversification : mixed orchard animals and mixed orchard vegetables systems
(Master thesis, 2015-11-05)Fruit production is one of the largest users of pesticides among the agricultural productions, consequently leading to detrimental effects for environment quality and human health. In a context of pesticides use reduction ... -
Developing a practical tool to assess hunger in Norwegian red calves
(Master thesis, 2023)Restrictive feeding practices are commonly employed for dairy calves, but it is imperative to recognize that hunger adversely affects the health and well-being of these young animals. This research aims to develop a practical ... -
Developing a soft systems methodology for comparing the sustainability performances of ecologically active concrete to those of the traditionally used stone as scour protection material
(Master thesis, 2020)Sustainability is one of the ‘hottest’ topics of our times: governments, scientists and public opinion have all been actively involved in the conversation for decades now, and, as a consequence, also companies are experiencing ... -
Developing a workflow for the multi-omics analysis of Daphnia
(Master thesis, 2021)In the era of multi-omics, making reasonable statistical inferences through data integration is challenged by data heterogeneity, dimensionality constraints, and data harmonization. The biological system is presumed to ... -
Developing Cas9 expressing MDBK cell lines for GeCKO screening against bovine diseases
(Master thesis, 2022)Cas9 expressing MDBK (Madin-Darby bovine kidney) cell lines were produced for a GeCKO (genome scale CRISPR/Cas9 gene knockout) screening against Bovine diseases. The lines were transduced with lentiviral vectors containing ... -
Developing of a SNP based parentage testing panel in the Norwegian goat
(Master thesis, 2015-11-05)A parentage test for Norwegian goats consisting of 59 highly informative SNPs has been developed. A panel of 48 AI bucks genotyped by the Illumina 50K SNP chip were used to select 80 highly informative SNPs for the parentage ... -
Developing prediction equation for digestibility of nutrients in faeces from individual atlantic salmon
(Master thesis, 2015-11-19)The purpose of this study was to develop a robust and reliable approach to predict apparent digestibility coefficients of fat and protein of individual Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), based on multivariate regression models ... -
Development and evaluation of 4-way crossbred chicken population in Southern Ethiopia
(PhD Thesis;2010:46, Doctoral thesis, 2010)Village chickens in Ethiopia are predominantly indigenous. They play an important role in the livelihood of farmers mainly by providing animal protein through meat and egg, as a source of income and family saving, and means ... -
Development and functions of adipose tissue in Atlantic salmon
(PhD Thesis;2009:42, Doctoral thesis, 2009)The trend in salmon aquaculture is to use feed with high lipid content. In current feeds, energy from lipids can comprise as much as 50% of the total energy, compared to 10% approximately 20 years ago. This change was ... -
Development of a method to compare sgRNA expression driven by heterologous and endogenous U6 promoters in an Atlantic salmon head kidney cell line
(Master thesis, 2021)Infectious diseases have negative impacts on fish welfare and sustainable aquaculture. Knowledge on host pathogen relationship and genes responsible for disease resistance could lead to development of vaccines and therapeutics ... -
Development of a SNP markers panel for parentage testing and individual identification in the Norwegian White Sheep (NWS) population
(Master thesis, 2013-08-05)Correct parentage information is essential for the success of livestock breeding programs. However, pedigree errors could occur due to human made errors or unintentional misbreeding due to e.g. a broken fence or similar ... -
Development of alternative baits based on rest raw materials, low-valued and surplus fish for baited gear fishing of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)
(Master thesis, 2018)The experiment was conducted to develop the alternative baits from low-valued and surplus fish for pot and longline fishing of Atlantic cod. Minced herring and capelin were used to produce baits for pots with increasing ... -
Development of CRISPR screenable phenotypes for PCV2 in pig cells and detection of latent BVDV contamination in commercial FBS
(Master thesis, 2023)Genome-wide CRISPR screening er et kraftig forskningsverktøy som gjør det mulig å undersøke virkningen av spesifikke gener i ulike biologiske prosesser, som for eksempel overlevelsesevne, fenotypeutvikling eller sykdomsprosesser. ... -
Development of embryonic cell culture conditions in Atlantic salmon
(Master thesis, 2023)Potensialet til bruk av induserte pluripotente stamceller har fått mye oppmerksomhet siden deres første produksjon. Disse cellene har en fenotype som ligner embryonale stamceller og kan derfor gi opphav til celler i alle ... -
Development of lentiviral technology for use in Atlantic salmon
(Master thesis, 2022)Lentiviral vectors are used to deliver and stably integrate genetic material into the genome of cells. When combined with CRISPR based gene editing technology, targeted editing of one or many host genes in a pooled format ... -
