System for Real-Time Positioning and Monitoring of Fish in Commercial Marine Farms Based on Acoustic Telemetry and Internet of Fish (IoF)
(ISOPE - International Offshore and Polar Engineering Conference. Proceedings;29, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2019) -
Shedding the light on Litopenaeus vannamei differential muscle and hepatopancreas immune responses in white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) exposure
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) is one of the main threats to farming Litopenaeus vannamei, the most important crustacean commercialized in aquaculture worldwide. Here, we performed RNA-seq analyses in hepatopancreas and ... -
Fauna associated with shallow-water methane seeps in the Laptev Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Methane seeps support unique benthic ecosystems in the deep sea existing due to chemosynthetic organic matter. In contrast, in shallow waters there is little or no effect of methane seeps on macrofauna. In the ... -
New insights into the human brain’s cognitive organization : Views from the top, from the bottom, from the left and, particularly, from the right
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The view that the left cerebral hemisphere in humans “dominates” over the “subdominant” right hemisphere has been so deeply entrenched in neuropsychology that no amount of evidence seems able to overcome it. In this article, ... -
The zebrafish disease and drug screening model : A strong ally against Covid-19
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020) -
Lichens and associated fungi from Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Lichens are widely acknowledged to be a key component of high latitude ecosystems. However, the time investment needed for full inventories and the lack of taxonomic identification resources for crustose lichen and ... -
Comparative chloroplast genomics of endangered Euphorbia species : Insights into hotspot divergence, repetitive sequence variation, and phylogeny.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Euphorbia is one of the largest genera in the Euphorbiaceae family, comprising 2000 species possessing commercial, medicinal, and ornamental importance. However, there are very little data available on their molecular ... -
New and noteworthy lichens and lichenicolous fungi from Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Twelve species of lichens and lichenicolous fungi are reported as new to Fennoscandia. Additionally, we report 19 species as new to Norway. New localites are given for 47 rare or seldom collected species. The new combination ... -
Genetic structure of Sufflogobius bibarbatus in the Benguela upwelling ecosystem using microsatellite markers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The bearded goby Sufflogobius bibarbatus is an abundant endemic small fish species on the continental shelf of the northern Benguela. The goby habitat is characterised by generally low bottom oxygen concentrations that ... -
Approaches to improve utilization of Nannochloropsis oceanica in plant-based feeds for Atlantic salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Rigid cell walls of microalgae lower the digestibility and nutrient bioavailability in carnivorous fish. Extrusion is a thermo-mechanical process and a scalable technology that may break cell walls and improves nutrient ... -
Pseudozyma priming influences expression of genes involved in metabolic pathways and immunity in zebrafish larvae
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Fungi, particularly yeasts, are known essential components of the host microbiota but their functional relevance in development of immunity and physiological processes of fish remains to be elucidated. In this study, we ... -
Imaging flow cytometry protocols for examining phagocytosis of microplastics and bioparticles by immune cells of aquatic animals
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Imaging flow cytometry (IFC) is a powerful tool which combines flow cytometry with digital microscopy to generate quantitative high-throughput imaging data. Despite various advantages of IFC over standard flow cytometry, ... -
Molecular phylogeny of one extinct and two critically endangered Central Asian sturgeon species (genus Pseudoscaphirhynchus) based on their mitochondrial genomes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The enigmatic and poorly studied sturgeon genus Pseudoscaphirhynchus (Scaphirhynchinae: Acipenseridae) comprises three species: the Amu Darya shovelnose sturgeon (Pseudoscaphirhynchus kaufmanni (Bogdanow)), dwarf Amu Darya ... -
Survival and migration of Rock Ptarmigan in Central Scandinavia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In a world undergoing massive declines in the distribution and abundance of many wildlife species, documenting basic ecological characteristics is often needed to be able to understand and potentially mitigate current and ... -
A new strain group of common carp: The genetic differences and admixture events between Cyprinus carpio breeds
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Common carp (Cyprinus carpio ) has an outstanding economic importance in freshwater aquaculture due to its high adaptive capacity to both food and environment. In fact, it is the third most farmed fish species worldwide ... -
Growth performance, fast muscle development and chemical composition of juvenile lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) fed diets incorporating soy and pea protein concentrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are widely applied as biological delousers in open net-pen farming of Atlantic salmon. As a species new to farming it is necessary to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the capacity of ... -
Novel genomic resources for shelled pteropods : A draft genome and target capture probes for Limacina bulimoides, tested for cross-species relevance
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background Pteropods are planktonic gastropods that are considered as bio-indicators to monitor impacts of ocean acidification on marine ecosystems. In order to gain insight into their adaptive potential to future ... -
Reindeer carcasses provide foraging habitat for insectivorous birds of the alpine tundra
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)On August of 2016, almost an entire herd (n = 323) of wild tundra reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) was killed by lightning on Hardangervidda in southern Norway. While conducting fieldwork for another study in 2017, we ... -
Cold seeps in a warming Arctic : Insights for benthic ecology
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Cold-seep benthic communities in the Arctic exist at the nexus of two extreme environments; one reflecting the harsh physical extremes of the Arctic environment and another reflecting the chemical extremes and strong ... -
Unraveling the chloroplast genomes of two Prosopis species to identify its genomic information, comparative analyses and phylogenetic relationship
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Genus Prosopis (family Fabaceae) are shrubby trees, native to arid and semi-arid regions of Asia, Africa, and America and known for nitrogen fixation. Here, we have sequenced the complete chloroplast (cp) genomes of two ...
