Kartlegging av Phytophthora i vann og vassdrag i og rundt byer og tettsteder på Sunnmøre
(Master thesis, 2014-10-03)This Phytophthora-survey was mainly carried out by baiting with leaves from Rhododendron ´Cunninghams White´ in ponds, rivers and lakes in 4 municipalities in the area of Sunnmøre, in northwestern Norway. No such studies ... -
Phenotypic and genotypic variation in the allopolyploid Arabidopsis suecica and its parent species A. thaliana and A. arenosa : an investigation of a possible model for studies of polyploidy and invasiveness
(Master thesis, 2014-09-26)Species that possess more than two sets of chromosomes are denoted as polyploids. It is hypothesized that polyploids show high gene redundancy, hybrid vigour and masking of deleterious alleles, and that this make them ... -
Use of eigenvectors in modelling longitudinal data
(Master thesis, 2014-09-25)The modelling of longitudinal data by a regression model generally utilises a set of basis functions of a certain type (polynomial, exponential, etc.) to be used as regressors in the model. Along with the regression ... -
