    • Fur colour in the Arctic fox: genetic architecture and consequences for fitness 

      Tietgen, Lukas; Hagen, Ingerid Julie; Kleven, Oddmund; Di Bernardi, Cecilia; Kvalnes, Thomas; Norén, Karin; Hasselgren, Malin; Wallen, Johan Fredrik; Angerbjörn, Anders; Landa, Arild; Eide, Nina Elisabeth; Flagstad, Øystein; Jensen, Henrik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Genome-wide association studies provide good opportunities for studying the genetic basis of adaptive traits in wild populations. Yet, previous studies often failed to identify major effect genes. In this study, we used ...

    • Genetic consequences of conservation action: Restoring the arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) population in Scandinavia 

      Hemphill, Elisa June Keeling; Flagstad, Øystein; Jensen, Henrik; Norén, Karin; Wallén, Johan Fredrik; Landa, Arild Magne; Angerbjörn, Anders; Eide, Nina Elisabeth (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) population in Fennoscandia experienced a drastic bottleneck in the late 19th century as a result of high hunting pressure. In the 1990s, despite nearly 70 years of protection, the population ...

    • Genomic Consequences of Fragmentation in the Endangered Fennoscandian Arctic Fox (Vulpes lagopus) 

      Cockerill, Christopher A.; Hasselgren, Malin; Dussex, Nicolas; Dalén, Love; von Seth, Johanna; Angerbjörn, Anders; Wallén, Johan F.; Landa, Arild; Eide, Nina Elisabeth; Flagstad, Øystein; Ehrich, Dorothee; Sokolov, Aleksandr; Sokolova, Natalya; Norén, Karin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Accelerating climate change is causing severe habitat fragmentation in the Arctic, threatening the persistence of many cold-adapted species. The Scandinavian arctic fox (V. lagopus) is highly fragmented, with a once ...
