Genetisk analyse av egenskaper fra eksteriørbedømmelse av islandshest på unghestskue og senere utstillinger
(Master thesis, 2022)Denne oppgaven ble formulert etter et ønske fra Norsk Islandshestforening. Hovedmålet med studien var å undersøke om noen av hestene som møtte på unghestskue i 2009 – 2011 hadde blitt stilt ut flere ganger, og om det var ... -
Genetisk analyse av utvikling i kroppsvekt frå lam til vaksen søye hjå norsk kvit sau : utnytting av eksisterande informasjon om slaktevekter
(Master thesis, 2019)Norsk saueavl har i lengre tid hatt sterkt fokus på å auke lammetal og -tilvekst. Dette har ført til at søyene har vorte større og tyngre. Føremålet med denne oppgåva var studere vektutviklinga frå lam til utvaksen søye ... -
Genetisk studie av eksteriør på bein hos nasjonale hesteraser
(Master thesis, 2020)Avlsarbeidet til de nasjonale rasene dølahest, fjordhest og nordlandshest/lyngshest er basert på fenotypeseleksjon. Vurderingen av avlsdyr gjøres på utstilling basert på en bedømming hvor egenskapene bedømmes på en skala ... -
Genetisk variasjon og clusteranalyse på bakgrunn av slektskapsdata hjå dølahest
(Master thesis, 2017)Formålet med denne oppgåva var å analysere genetisk variasjon hjå dølahesten, å sjå på slektskapsstruktur i rasen ved hjelp av clusteranalyse, samt å sjå på moglegheiter for gode strategiar for berekraftig avl i framtida. ... -
Genome-wide association study of resistance to cardiomyopathy syndrome (CMS) in Atlantic salmon (Salmon salar L.)
(Master thesis, 2019)Cardiomyopathy syndrome (CMS) is considered as a serious viral disease in Norwegian farmed Atlantic salmon. Outbreaks of the disease occur without any observable signs and CMS primarily affects adult salmon. In 2011, piscine ... -
Genome-wide association study of the genetic basis for resistance to IPNV in rainbow trout
(Master thesis, 2022)Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis (IPN), caused by the IPN virus, is one of the major threats to the Norwegian rainbow trout (NRT) industry. Despite disinfection, effective management, traditional breeding programs, and efforts ... -
Growth media comparison for tomatoes in greenhouses
(Master thesis, 2020)As part of the SiEUGreen project, development of urban farming has become of increasing importance as urban population and urbanization grow worldwide. Moreover, dealing with urban waste, and recycling of resources are ... -
Hepatic responses to chronic exposure to hydrogen sulfide in post-smolt Atlantic salmon
(Master thesis, 2023)The research was performed in the liver of post-smolt Atlantic salmon with three concentrations of hydrogen sulphide i.e., 0 μg (control), 1 μg (low( and 5 μg H2S/L (high) where the samples were taken when exposed for 2 ... -
Heritability of longevity in the Icelandic sheep breed and the reproduction factors affecting it
(Master thesis, 2023)In recent years higher focus has been put on increasing welfare and decreasing negative environmental effects of animal production. One way to access this is increasing and understanding the factors affecting the animal’s ... -
