BioTIME : A database of biodiversity time series for the Anthropocene
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Motivation: The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and abundances in ecological assemblages through time. These data enable users to calculate temporal trends in biodiversity within and amongst ... -
Coping styles in farmed fish: consequences for aquaculture
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Individual differences in physiological and behavioural responses to stressors are increasingly recognised as adaptive variation and thus raw material for evolution and fish farming improvements including selective breeding. ... -
Responses of European lobster (Homarus gammarus) and lobster fishers to protective management
(Master thesis, 2017)Marine protected areas (MPAs) are valued for their conservation benefits to harvested species. However, potential benefits of MPAs to neighboring fisheries are less well-understood. This study quantifies how the European ... -
Transcriptomic responses to environmental change in fishes: Insights from RNA sequencing
(Journal article, 2017)The need to better understand how plasticity and evolution affect organismal responses to environmental variability is paramount in the face of global climate change. The potential for using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to ... -
The development of the Norwegian wrasse fishery and the use of wrasses as cleaner fish in the salmon aquaculture industry
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Norway leads the world aquaculture production of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar and farmed Norwegian Atlantic salmon is currently consumed around the globe. However, sea lice infestation is a major problem faced by the salmon ... -
An improved genome assembly uncovers prolific tandem repeats in Atlantic cod
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background The first Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) genome assembly published in 2011 was one of the early genome assemblies exclusively based on high-throughput 454 pyrosequencing. Since then, rapid advances in sequencing ... -
Review of LHC experimental results on low mass bosons in multi Higgs models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)A variety of searches have been performed at the LHC using Run I data, looking for decays of the discovered Higgs boson, h 125, decaying to a pair of low mass bosons, with mass in the range 2mμ−mh125/2≃62 GeV. We summarise ... -
Genomic characterization of the Atlantic cod sex-locus
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)A variety of sex determination mechanisms can be observed in evolutionary divergent teleosts. Sex determination is genetic in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), however the genomic location or size of its sex-locus is unknown. ... -
Evolution of the immune system influences speciation rates in teleost fishes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Teleost fishes constitute the most species-rich vertebrate clade and exhibit extensive genetic and phenotypic variation, including diverse immune defense strategies. The genomic basis of a particularly aberrant strategy ... -
Estimating cod egg developmental stage based on DNA concentration
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Pelagic egg surveys are commonly used to map Atlantic cod spawning areas in the northeastern Atlantic. However, a sampling location may not necessarily indicate a spawning location, because more developed eggs may have ... -
Genome architecture enables local adaptation of Atlantic cod despite high connectivity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Adaptation to local conditions is a fundamental process in evolution; however, mechanisms maintaining local adaptation despite high gene flow are still poorly understood. Marine ecosystems provide a wide array of diverse ... -
Fine-scale population dynamics in a marine fish species inferred from dynamic state-space models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Identifying the spatial scale of population structuring is critical for the conservation of natural populations and for drawing accurate ecological inferences. However, population studies often use spatially aggregated ... -
Whole genome sequencing data and de novo draft assemblies for 66 teleost species

The role of the Strait of Gibraltar in shaping the genetic structure of the Mediterranean Grenadier, Coryphaenoides mediterraneus, between the Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Population genetic studies of species inhabiting the deepest parts of the oceans are still scarce and only until recently we started to understand how oceanographic processes and topography affect dispersal and gene flow ... -
Trans-oceanic genomic divergence of Atlantic cod ecotypes is associated with large inversions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Chromosomal rearrangements such as inversions can play a crucial role in maintaining polymorphism underlying complex traits and contribute to the process of speciation. In Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), inversions of several ... -
Genetic analysis of goldsinny wrasse reveals evolutionary insights into population connectivity and potentialevidence of inadverent translocationvia aquaculture.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The salmon industry is heavily dependent on wrasse for delousing infected fish. The goldsinny wrasse is numerically the most important, and each year, millions are harvested from the wild and transported large distances ... -
The effects of oil spills on marine fish: Implications of spatial variation in natural mortality
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The effects of oil spills on marine biological systems are of great concern, especially in regions with high biological production of harvested resources such as in the Northeastern Atlantic. The scientific studies of the ... -
Lessons on Marine Protected Area Management in Northern Boreal Regions from the United States and Norway
(Journal article, 2017)In comparison to tropical reef systems, relatively few marine protected areas (MPA’s) exist in temperate or subarctic systems (e.g., North Pacific and North Atlantic) where species diversity is lower, abundance of individual ... -
Ancient DNA reveals the Arctic origin of Viking Age cod from Haithabu, Germany
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)nowledge of the range and chronology of historic trade and long-distance transport of natural resources is essential for determining the impacts of past human activities on marine environments. However, the specific ... -
