How to Better Safeguard Genetic Diversity Using Genomic DataIn her doctoral research, Oda Braar Wæge demonstrates how genomic tools can be used to achieve genetic progress while limiting the loss of genetic diversity.
How early water temperatures are critical to shaping a fish’s futureNew research at NMBU reveals how and why precise water temperatures are important for proper development of Atlantic salmon organs during the early stages of their lives, with strong implications for …
Complex mutations influence evolution in Atlantic salmonAs Celian Diblasi reaches the end of his PhD at NMBU, his work provides new insight into how complex genetic changes have shaped evolution in Atlantic Salmon over time and in different world regions.
Education in aquaculture provides professional security in a growing industryFor Even Møller Haarberg, aquaculture is about more than technology, production and figures. It is also about living animals, animal welfare, the fishing industry and biological processes.
The role of biology in cow methane productionIn his doctoral work, Hendra Nur Cahyo has investigated how biological differences between cows and different feeding strategies affect methane emissions.
Tools for understanding how genetic differences affect important traitsThe aim of Dat Thanh Nguyen's doctoral work has been to create more accurate, efficient and scalable tools to link genetic variations to gene regulation, especially in the non-coding regions of the ge…
With a love for fruitEmily worked in a store in an apple orchard in high school and really loved identifying problems with the fruit. She quickly became interested in studying apples and knew she wanted to work in science…
The action education component makes the agroecology program unique Peter found the action education component of NMBU’s agroecology program to be unique and helpful because we engage with a farmer implementing regenerative agriculture, and to communicate with the sys…
Functional feed protein makes young salmon more robustSmoltification and transfer to sea is a demanding period for a young salmon. However, a moderate amount of the fungal protein product Pekilo in the feed boosts the immune system and makes the young sa…
