Resistance studies and genetic characterization of the barley : Pyrenophora teres pathosystem
(PhD Thesis;2017:52, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Net blotch is a major barley disease in Norway caused by the necrotrophic fungus Pyrenophora teres, which can cause yield losses of up to 40% under conducive conditions. Two forms of this pathogen, P. teres f. teres (Ptt) ... -
Resistance to Septoria nodorum leaf blotch and the importance of sensitivity to necrotrophic effectors in Norwegian spring wheat
(PhD Thesis;2017:63, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Wheat is one of the most important food crops worldwide. In normal years, the proportion of food quality wheat grown in Norway exceeds 50 %. However, the quality and yield can be significantly challenged by unfavorable ... -
Responses to mirrors in domestic goats (Capra aegagrus hircus) : assessing mirror use to solve a problem and in self-recognition
(Master thesis, 2016-08-18)Mirror studies in animals have been used to test for self-recognition and instrumental use of the mirror as a tool to find an object hidden from view but visible via mirror-reflection. These abilities have been indicated ... -
Restoration and management plan of Tananger coastal heathland
(Master thesis, 2016-08-11)Coastal heathland development started about 5000 years ago, as a result of humans cutting trees and burning along the coast. Traditionally, coastal heathlands have been composed of a mosaic containing different habitats ... -
Restoring Myanmar’s mangrove forests and coastal communities’ socioeconomic stability with community based mangrove management
(Master thesis, 2016-08-12)Mangrove forests have a significant capacity to provide ecosystem services. However, deforestation from land use changes has led to widespread degradation of these services and consequently jeopardizes coastal populations. ... -
Revaluing residues : effects of composts and vermicomposts from corn, fig and citrus residues on the development of Rosmarinus officinalis L. and Lavandula angustifolia L.
(Master thesis, 2016-08-11)Intensive agricultural production generates large quantities of organic waste and residue worldwide. Health and environmental hazards can result with the improper disposal and accumulation of these materials. Composting ... -
Review of CRISPR-assosiated proteins, their functions and patent situations
(Master thesis, 2019)CRISPR-Cas (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) systems are a new revolutionary gene editing tool. CRISPR-Cas was originally discovered as a defense mechanism in bacteria and archaea. CRISPR has ... -
Review of viruses in raspberry production
(Master thesis, 2022)Raspberries are one of the commercially most important kinds of berry fruits. Botanically, they are members of the large and diverse genus Rubus and belong to the greater rose family (Rosaceae). The raspberry shrub shares ... -
The role of demonstration farms in agroecological transitions : nexus for scaling up and scaling out agroecology
(Master thesis, 2020)Adoption of agroecological farming practices remains low, despite increasing evidence for their socioeconomic and ecological potential. This is regretful, especially in Sub Saharan Africa (SSA) where there is a critical ... -
