Genome-wide microRNA screening in Nile tilapia reveals pervasive isomiRs’ transcription, sex-biased arm switching and increasing complexity of expression throughout development
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators of gene expression in multicellular organisms. The elucidation of miRNA function and evolution depends on the identification and characterization of miRNA repertoire of strategic ... -
Genome-wide Phenotypic Profiling Identifies and Categorizes Genes Required for Mycobacterial Low Iron Fitness
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Iron is vital for nearly all living organisms, but during infection, not readily available to pathogens. Infectious bacteria therefore depend on specialized mechanisms to survive when iron is limited. These mechanisms make ... -
Genome-wide physical activity interactions in adiposity - A meta-analysis of 200,452 adults
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Physical activity (PA) may modify the genetic effects that give rise to increased risk of obesity. To identify adiposity loci whose effects are modified by PA, we performed genome-wide interaction meta-analyses of BMI and ... -
Genome-Wide Profile of Pleural Mesothelioma versus Parietal and Visceral Pleura: The emerging Gene Portrait of the Mesothelioma Phenotype
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009) -
Genome-wide profiling of DNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosine during rat Sertoli cell maturation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Sertoli cells have dual roles during the cells’ lifetime. In the juvenile mammal, Sertoli cells proliferate and create the structure of the testis, and during puberty they cease to proliferate and take on the adult role ... -
Genome-wide risk prediction of common diseases across ancestries in one million people
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Polygenic risk scores (PRS) measure genetic disease susceptibility by combining risk effects across the genome. For coronary artery disease (CAD), type 2 diabetes (T2D), and breast and prostate cancer, we performed ... -
Genome-Wide Transcript Profiling of Endosperm without Paternal Contribution Identifies Parent-of-Origin-Dependent Regulation of AGAMOUS-LIKE36
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Seed development in angiosperms is dependent on the interplay among different transcriptional programs operating in the embryo, the endosperm, and the maternally-derived seed coat. In angiosperms, the embryo and the endosperm ... -
Genomes of Pleistocene Siberian Wolves Uncover Multiple Extinct Wolf Lineages
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Extant Canis lupus genetic diversity can be grouped into three phylogenetically distinct clades: Eurasian and American wolves and domestic dogs.1 Genetic studies have suggested these groups trace their origins to a wolf ... -
Genomic adaptations and evolutionary history of the extinct scimitar-toothed cat, Homotherium latidens
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Homotherium was a genus of large-bodied scimitar-toothed cats, morphologically distinct from any extant felid species, that went extinct at the end of the Pleistocene [1, 2, 3, 4]. They possessed large, saber-form serrated ... -
Genomic alterations in psoriasis and implications for disease burden
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2024:142, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Introduction: Psoriasis is a common chronic inflammatory skin disease with a substantial genetic etiological component. It is associated with diverse comorbidities, increasing the disease burden. Estimated global prevalence ... -
Genomic and Transcriptomic Investigation of the Physiological Response of the Methylotroph Bacillus methanolicus to 5-Aminovalerate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The methylotrophic thermophile Bacillus methanolicus can utilize the non-food substrate methanol as its sole carbon and energy source. Metabolism of L-lysine, in particular its biosynthesis, has been studied to some detail, ... -
The genomic basis of the plant island syndrome in Darwin’s giant daisies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The repeated, rapid and often pronounced patterns of evolutionary divergence observed in insular plants, or the ‘plant island syndrome’, include changes in leaf phenotypes, growth, as well as the acquisition of a perennial ... -
Genomic characterization of the most barotolerant Listeria monocytogenes RO15 strain compared to reference strains used to evaluate food high pressure processing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: High pressure processing (HPP; i.e. 100–600 MPa pressure depending on product) is a non-thermal preservation technique adopted by the food industry to decrease significantly foodborne pathogens, including ... -
Genomic consequences of anthropogenic reintroduction in high-arctic Svalbard reindeer
(Master thesis, 2020)Anthropogenic reintroductions are a commonly used conservation strategy following local extirpations. However, establishing new populations with a small number of founders can result in population bottlenecks causing reduced ... -
Genomic Consequences of Fragmentation in the Endangered Fennoscandian Arctic Fox (Vulpes lagopus)
(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 ... -
Genomic estimation of quantitative genetic parameters in wild admixed populations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)1. Heritable genetic variation among free-living animals or plants is essential for populations to respond to selection and adapt. It is therefore important to be able to estimate additive genetic variance VA, which can ... -
Genomic evidence refutes the hypothesis that the Bornean banteng is a distinct species
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The banteng (Bos javanicus) is an endangered species within the wild Asian Bos complex, that has traditionally been subdivided into three geographically isolated subspecies based on (i) mainland Southeast Asia (B. j. ... -
A genomic exploration of the early evolution of extant cats and their sabre-toothed relatives
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: The evolutionary relationships of Felidae during their Early–Middle Miocene radiation is contentious. Although the early common ancestors have been subsumed under the grade-group Pseudaelurus, this group is ... -
Genomic identification and characterization of the pseudoautosomal region in highly differentiated avian sex chromosomes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The molecular characteristics of the pseudoautosomal region (PAR) of sex chromosomes remain elusive. Despite significant genome-sequencing efforts, the PAR of highly differentiated avian sex chromosomes remains to be ... -
Genomic insights into the conservation status of the world’s last remaining Sumatran rhinoceros populations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Small populations are often exposed to high inbreeding and mutational load that can increase the risk of extinction. The Sumatran rhinoceros was widespread in Southeast Asia, but is now restricted to small and isolated ...
