• A comparison of egg investment in lesser black-backed gulls (Larus fuscus) from urban and non-urban colonies 

  Syversen, Vanja Sand (Master thesis, 2021-06-01)

  While the increasing worldwide urbanization generally has negative effects on biodiversity, some animals, like roof nesting gulls, are able to take advantage of these areas and have generated large populations in a number ...

• Molekylær karakterisering og analyse av uttrykkingsmønsteret til T-cellemarkørene CD4-1 og CD8-alfa i berggylt (Labrus bergylta) 

  Reikvam, Aslak (Master thesis, 2021-06-01)

  Proteinene CD4-1 og CD8-alfa er essensielle ko-reseptorer på T-celler, og nyttige markører for å identifisere bestemte sub-populasjoner av celler i immunforsvaret. Målet med denne oppgaven var å karakterisere disse molekylene ...

• Tracking the time course of reproductive events in the Northeast Arctic haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) 

  Tronbøl, Frida (Master thesis, 2021-06-15)

  An important objective of fisheries management is to ensure harvest rates that allows the population to maintain its reproductive potential over time. Reproductive biology is thus of key importance when managing a fish ...

• Paramoeba perurans and AGD in Norwegian aquaculture: effect of freshwater treatment against AGD on gill health in commercial production of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) and experimental testing of virulence of Paramoeba perurans
