Genomic responses of salmonids to pathogenic agents and nutritional interventions
(PhD Thesis;2009:43, Doctoral thesis, 2009)Aquaculture exposes salmonid fish to diverse stressors, including pathogens and inadequate nutrition. The identification of molecular basis underlying compromised health and growth caused by these factors is confounded by ... -
Genomic structural variations as drivers of adaptation in salmonid fishes
(PhD Thesis;2023:26, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Structural variations (SVs), e.g. deletions, insertions, inversions and duplications of sequences, are a major source of genomic variation affecting more base pairs in the genome than single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). ... -

(PhD Thesis;2019:102, Doctoral thesis, 2019)Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is a benthopelagic cold-water marine species found across the North Atlantic Ocean. Thanks to its historical and current significance as an important food resource it is one of the most well-known ... -
Genomics of bovine milk fat composition
(PhD Thesis;2018:19, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Bovine milk is a highly regarded food source. Still, some milk fatty acids may have unfavourable health effects and can influence manufacturing properties of dairy products. Individual milk fatty acids show moderate ... -
Genomiske avlsverdier for kjøttproduksjonsegenskaper hos Norsk Rødt Fe
(Master thesis, 2016-08-18)Norsk Rødt Fe (NRF), som er den mest brukte rasen i Norge, har gode både melke- og kjøttproduksjonsegenskaper. Kjøttproduksjonsegenskaper er viktig egenskapsgruppe som har vært vektlagt i alvsmålet til NRF siden starten. ... -
Genotype by environment interaction for sexual maturity in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Master thesis, 2015-08-07)Genetic parameters and genotype by environment interactions were estimated for early sexual maturity in Atlantic salmon. About 23984 (24999) individuals from 115 (118) full-sib families were tested in six sea-cages at five ... -
Genotype imputation based on discriminant and cluster analysis
(Master thesis, 2012-11-09)The recent development of high-throughput systems for genotyping SNP in Eukaryote has led to an extraordinary amount of research activity, particularly in areas such as whole-genome selection of livestock and ... -
Gjentatt rapporterin av smerter : hvordan forklare høy skåring ved første måling?
(Master thesis, 2011-10-10)Bakgrunn og formål: Rundt 30 % av den voksne befolkningen har i dag kroniske smerter, og kvinner er mer utsatt enn menn. Tidligere studier viser at det kan være en tendens til høyere smerterapportering ved førstegangsundersøkelse ... -
Glyphosate : the fragile power behind Argentina's soy complex
(Master thesis, 2017)The safe use narrative remains a powerful tool for the pesticide industry to keep their products on the market. The narrative claims misuse stems from underdevelopment; framing these pesticide (mis)users and farmers as ... -
Goat farming systems : a diagnosis of goat sector at the scale of farms in Centre-Val de Loire Region, France
(Master thesis, 2017-01-02)The goat sector in Centre-Val de Loire Region, France is highlighted by its five PDOs, its important volume of milk produced (63 million of litres in 2014) and its high rate of on-farm cheese processing (40% of the volume). ... -
Grading of correlated quality traits for added market value in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) - A model with example data
(Master thesis, 2010-11-29)The quality of the Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) at the time of harvest affects the economic value and is in addition to body weight generally determined by the body composition and carcass quality traits, such as fillet ... -
Grain yield in Norwegian spring wheat : past, present, and future : historical genetic gains, their genetic basis, and prospects of future improvement using phenomics
(PhD thesis;2023:52, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Bread wheat is among the most critical staples worldwide and is essential to Norway’s food production. The aftermath of the green revolution nearly eradicated Norwegian wheat production in the 1950s and 1960s. The lack of ... -
