(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)1. Decomposer communities perform an essential ecosystem function by recycling nutrients. However, the effect of higher trophic levels on microbial decomposer communities and rate of decomposition is poorly understood. We ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2016)Protein O‐GlcNAcylation has emerged as an important intracellular signaling system with both physiological and pathophysiological functions, but the role of protein O‐GlcNAcylation in skeletal muscle remains elusive. In ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)Exosomes are a type of extracellular vesicle released from cells after fusion of multivesicular bodies with the plasma membrane. These vesicles are often enriched in cholesterol, SM, glycosphingolipids, and phosphatidylserine. ...

Expanding ecological assessment by integrating microorganisms into routine freshwater biomonitoring (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Bioindication has become an indispensable part of water quality monitoring in most countries of the world, with the presence and abundance of bioindicator taxa, mostly multicellular eukaryotes, used for biotic indices. In ...

Expanding the c-Myb interaction network through search for and studies of novel interaction partnersRestricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2013)SUMMARY The transcription factor c-Myb is a key regulator of stem- and progenitor cells in the bone marrow, which has the task of forming most of the blood cells. However, maturation, activation and some proliferation of ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)Herbivores may increase or decrease aboveground plant productivity depending on factors such as herbivore density and habitat productivity. The grazing optimization hypothesis predicts a peak in plant production at ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2016)Background Postzygotic isolation in the form of reduced viability and/or fertility of hybrids may help maintain species boundaries in the face of interspecific gene flow. Past hybridization events between ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Early stone tools, and in particular sharp stone tools, arguably represent one of the most important technological milestones in human evolution. The production and use of sharp stone tools significantly widened the ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)It is generally accepted that the high buoyancy of pelagic marine eggs is due to substantial influx of water across the cell membrane just before ovulation. Here we further develop the theoretical basis by applying laboratory ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)As experimental neuroscience is moving toward more integrative approaches, with a variety of acquisition techniques covering multiple spatiotemporal scales, data management is becoming increasingly challenging for neuroscience ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2023)Angiosperm-genomer er svært varierende både i størrelse og innhold. I evolusjonen av plantegenomer er denne variasjonen for det meste drevet av forskjeller i forfedres ploiditet og spredning av transposoner. En analyse av ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)The climate of maritime Antarctica has altered since the 1950s. However, the effects of increased temperature, precipitation and organic carbon and nitrogen availability on the fungal communities inhabiting the barren and ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2015)Most of China’s surface waters are undergoing anthropogenic eutrophication, mainly due to leaching of phosphorus (P) from both sewage and agriculture. This is causing quality deterioration in their scarce water resources. ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)Here we assess the impact of geographically dependent (latitude, longitude, and alti-tude) changes in bioclimatic (temperature, precipitation, and primary productivity) variability on fun-gal fruiting phenology across ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Abstract From tracking land‐use change to biodiversity loss, citizen science data have become a cornerstone for conservation. However, policymakers must understand the “data‐generating process” to make good use of existing ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Drift models are commonly used to study the transport of early life stages of fish and other marine organisms. Various approaches may be applied to examine the distribution and variability of ocean trajectory pathways. In ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2023)Ex vivo tumor tissue cultures, such as organoids or explants, hold promise as a drug screening platform for functional precision diagnostics. In this project, we have employed such cultures to investigate functional and ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2019)Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is one of the subtypes of leukemia that is genetically and medically heterogeneous. The FLT3-ITD mutant variant is one of its form of leukemia, that constitutes 30% of the occurrences. This ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Lizards, except geckos, are generally considered voiceless organisms, although some species emit oral sounds. For most of these “vocal lizards”, however, there is almost no information on the characteristics of the sounds, ...
