• Comparing the impact of vaccination strategies on the spread of COVID-19, including a novel household-targeted vaccination strategy 

      Voigt, Andre; Omholt, Stig William; Almaas, Eivind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      With limited availability of vaccines, an efficient use of the limited supply of vaccines in order to achieve herd immunity will be an important tool to combat the wide-spread prevalence of COVID-19. Here, we compare a ...
    • Concerted Evolution of Life Stage Performances Signals Recent Selection on Yeast Nitrogen Use 

      Ibstedt, Sebastian; Stenberg, Simon; Bages, Sara; Gjuvsland, Arne Bjørke; Salinas, Francisco; Kourtchenko, Olga; Samy, Jeevan K.A.; Blomberg, Anders; Omholt, Stig William; Liti, Gianni; Beltran, Gemma; Warringer, Jonas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      Exposing natural selection driving phenotypic and genotypic adaptive differentiation is an extraordinary challenge. Given that an organism’s life stages are exposed to the same environmental variations, we reasoned that ...
    • Containing pandemics through targeted testing of households 

      Voigt, Andre; Martyushenko, Nikolay; Karlsen, Emil; Hall, Martina; Nyhamar, Kristen; Omholt, Stig William; Almaas, Eivind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Background While invasive social distancing measures have proven efficient to control the spread of pandemics failing wide-scale deployment of vaccines, they carry vast societal costs. The development of a diagnostic ...
    • Scan-o-matic: High-Resolution Microbial Phenomics at a Massive Scale 

      Zackrisson, Martin; Hallin, Johan; Ottoson, Lars-Göran; Dahl, Peter; Fernandez-Parada, Esteban; Landström, Erik; Fernandez-Ricaud, Luciano; Kaferle, Petra; Skyman, Andreas; Stenberg, Simon; Omholt, Stig William; Petrovic, Uros; Warringer, Jonas; Blomberg, Anders (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      The capacity to map traits over large cohorts of individuals-phenomics-lags far behind the explosive development in genomics. For microbes, the estimation of growth is the key phenotype because of its link to fitness. We ...
    • The Atlantic salmon genome provides insights into rediploidization 

      Lien, Sigbjørn; Koop, Ben F; Sandve, Simen Rød; Miller, Jason R.; Kent, Matthew Peter; Nome, Torfinn; Hvidsten, Torgeir Rhoden; Leong, Jong; Minkley, David R.; Zimin, Aleksey; Grammes, Fabian; Grove, Harald; Gjuvsland, Arne Bjørke; Walenz, Brian; Hermansen, Russell A.; von Schalburg, Kristian R.; Rondeau, Eric; Genova, Alex Di; Antony Samy, Jeevan Karloss; Vik, Jon Olav; Vigeland, Magnus Dehli; Caler, Lis; Grimholt, Unni; Jentoft, Sissel; Våge, Dag Inge; de Jong, Pieter J.; Moen, Thomas; Baranski, Matthew; Palti, Yniv; Smith, Douglas W.; Yorke, James A.; Nederbragt, Alexander J.; Tooming-Klunderud, Ave; Jakobsen, Kjetill Sigurd; Jiang, Xuanting; Fan, Dingding; Hu, Yan; Liberles, David A.; Vidal, Rodrigo; Iturra, Patricia; Jones, Steven J.M.; Jonassen, Inge; Maass, Alejandro; Omholt, Stig William; Davidson, William S (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      The whole-genome duplication 80 million years ago of the common ancestor of salmonids (salmonid-specific fourth vertebrate whole-genome duplication, Ss4R) provides unique opportunities to learn about the evolutionary fate ...
