Genetic variation and management of the Norwegian horse breeds
(PhD Thesis;2011:05, Doctoral thesis, 2011)The Norwegian horse breeds suffer from strong competition in the market from imported, specialized breeds. Decreasing population sizes, especially for the Fjord, the Døle and the Nordland/Lyngen, and risk of rapid accumulation ... -
Genetic variation in anther extrusion in oats and its relationship to Fusarium
(Master thesis, 2015-02-26)Anther extrusion (AE) is a trait that has been studied in wheat for its influence on Fusarium head blight. Fusarium is a disease causing great problems in Nordic small grain production, particularly in oat. However, AE ... -
Genetic variation in candidate genes of behaviour and associations with behaviour phenotypes in dogs
(Student paper, others, 2019)Variants of SNPs and microsatellites in or closely linked to three candidate genes of behaviour, HTR2A, DAT and DRD2 were studied in three population of dogs with records of behaviour phenotypes. Most of the selected markers ... -
Genetic variation in egg traits and early survival in rainbow trout
(Master thesis, 2021)In farmed rainbow trout a large part of fertilized and incubated eggs and alevins are lost from fertilization until first feeding. The present study was conducted to estimate the overall means of different egg traits and ... -
Genetic variation in Norwegian Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) associated with anthropogenic activity - Technical report
(Research report, 2013)Atlantic salmon populations are affected by a number of different anthropogenic activities on local to regional scales. In a recently updated salmon register for Norway maintained by the Directorate for Nature Management ... -
Genetic variation in Norwegian Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) associated with anthropogenic activity. Final report
(Research report, 2013)Atlantic salmon populations are affected by a number of different anthropogenic activities on local to regional scales. In a recently updated salmon register for Norway maintained by the Directorate for Nature Management ... -
Genetic variation in Norwegian cervids : relevance to the occurrence of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD)
(PhD Thesis;2021:51, Doctoral thesis, 2020)The etiological agents’ nature has a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of infectious diseases. Prion diseases are unique in having a misfolded protein (PrPSc) as the sole transmissible agent. The host cellular protein (PrPC) ... -
Genetic variation in recombination rates and genetic shuffling in pigs, cattle and Atlantic salmon
(PhD Thesis;2022:17, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Meiotic recombination ensures proper segregation of homologues chromosomes in meiosis while also breaking down linkage disequilibrium and creating novel haplotypes by shuffling alleles of genes located on the same chromosome. ... -
Genetic variation in relation to stress from computed tomography in Norsvin Landrace pigs
(Master thesis, 2019)Resilience towards stress is an important trait as it has implications for animal welfare, and can reduce labour costs. Though some traits included in breeding programs cover disease resilience, general resilience towards ... -
Genetic variation in susceptibility of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) to salmon lice, Lepeophtherius salmonis, from field and challenge tests
(Master thesis, 2018)Sea lice, Lepeophtheirus salmonis (L. salmonis) is the major threats for Norwegian salmon farming industry and the cost of the parasite was estimated to be around five billion NOK per year. Chemical treatments have been ... -
Genetic variation in the haemoglobin of the Atlantic cod(Gadus morhua) in trans-Atlantic populations
(Master thesis, 2012-10-05)It can be concluded that Val55-Ala62 haplotype predominated in the Greenland, Canadian, Iceland, and Lofoten NEA, Østersjøen Inner while Met55-Lys62 was mainly found in Østersjøen outer and Skagerrak/Kattegat. The Canadian ... -
Genetic variation of xylem formation in norway spruce ( Picea abies (L.) Karst. ) clones with contrasting growth rhytm
(Master thesis, 2011-11-11)Genetic variation in the progress of xylem formation and relationships with bud development in Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) were studied during one growing season in a clonal trial in southeastern Norway. Also ... -

Genetically modified attenuated salmonid alphavirus: A potential strategy for immunization of Atlantic salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Pancreas disease (PD) is a serious challenge in European salmonid aquaculture caused by salmonid alphavirus (SAV). In this study, we report the effect of immunization of Atlantic salmon with three attenuated infectious ... -

Genetics of chronic subclinical mastitis in Norwegian Red cows
(PhD Thesis;2020:19, Doctoral thesis, 2020)Chronic subclinical mastitis is an udder inflammation widely defined as milk somatic cell count (SCC) above 200 000 cells/ml for a prolonged period of time, often caused by bacterial infection. Several authors have studied ... -
The genetics of omega-3 fatty acids in fillets of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)
(Doctoral thesis, 2019)Decreasing contents of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA in farmed Atlantic salmon reduces the nutritional value for consumers and influences physiological processes in the fish. Most studies of physiological omega-3 ... -
Genetics of Pooideae freezing tolerance : an evolutionary perspective
(PhD Thesis;2010:37, Doctoral thesis, 2010)Freezing tolerance is an important agricultural trait for forage and cereal grasses belonging to the Pooideae sub-family. Many plants, including the Pooideae grasses, go through a cold acclimation (CA) process when exposed ... -
