• Spawning fish maintains trophic synchrony across time and space beyond thermal drivers 

  Opdal, Anders Martin Frugård; Wright, Peter J.; Blom, Geir; Höffle, Hannes; Lindemann, Christian; Kjesbu, Olav Sigurd (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)

  Increasing ocean temperature will speed up physiological rates of ectotherms. In fish, this is suggested to cause earlier spawning due to faster oocyte growth rates. Over time, this could cause spawning time to become ...

• A genetic method to infer ploidy and aberrant inheritance in triploid organisms 

  Delaval, Aurelien Nicolas; Glover, Kevin Alan; Solberg, Monica Favnebøe; Taggart, John B.; Besnier, Francois; Sørvik, Anne Grete Eide; Øyro, Johanne; Garnes-Gutvik, Sofie Nordaune; Fjelldal, Per Gunnar; Hansen, Tom Johnny; Harvey, Alison C. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)
