The identification and distribution of Sphagnum balticum (Russow) C.E.O.Jensen in Britain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Introduction. The aims of this study were to help clarify the identification of Sphagnum balticum in Britain, to review its distribution, and to investigate the possible presence of hybrids between it and either S. cuspidatum ... -
Identification of Annelida Polychaeta from northern European and adjacent Arctic waters
(Gunneria, 0332-8554; 66, Research report, 1991)166 papers necessary for the identification of polychaetous annelids from the North Sea and Scandinavian, Icelandic and the adjacent Arctic waters are listed. References are given for each of the 71 families that are known ... -
Identification of transcription factor genes involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis in carrot (Daucus carota L.) using RNA-Seq
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background Anthocyanins are water-soluble colored flavonoids present in multiple organs of various plant species including flowers, fruits, leaves, stems and roots. DNA-binding R2R3-MYB transcription factors, basic ... -
Immune gene expression and epigenetic potential affect the consumption of risky food by female house sparrows
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)When organisms move into new areas, they are likely to encounter novel food resources. Even if they are nutritious, these foods can also be risky, as they might be contaminated by parasites. The behavioural immune system ... -
Impact of an invasive alien plant on litter decomposition along a latitudinal gradient
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Invasive alien plant effects on ecosystem functions are often difficult to predict across environmental gradients due to the context-dependent interactions between the invader and the recipient communities. Adopting a ... -
Impact of climate change on alpine vegetation of mountain summits in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Climate change is affecting the composition and functioning of ecosystems across the globe. Mountain ecosystems are particularly sensitive to climate warming since their biota is generally limited by low temperatures. ... -
The impact of thermal seasonality on terrestrial endotherm food web dynamics: a revision of the Exploitation Ecosystem Hypothesis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Many terrestrial endotherm food webs constitute three trophic level cascades. Others have two trophic level dynamics (food limited herbivores; plants adapted to tackle intense herbivory) or one trophic level dynamic ... -
Impacts of an invasive plant on primary production: Testing a functional trait-based framework with a greenhouse experiment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Questions Predicting when invasive species will affect ecosystem functioning remains problematic, with strong contingency upon both the invasive species and the recipient community's identities. Adopting a functional ... -
Impacts of piscicide-induced fish removal on resource use and trophic diversity of lake invertebrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Chemical eradication of non-native species has become a widely used method to mitigate the potential negative im- pacts of altered competitive or predatory dynamics on biodiversity and natural ecosystem processes. However, ... -
Impacts of reduced Lepidurus arcticus availability on brown trout life history traits in a mountain reservoir
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Lepidurus arcticus (the Arctic tadpole shrimp) is a vulnerable keystone species in Arctic and alpine water bodies where its occurrence and population size may influence the viability and life history traits of resident ... -
Impacts of roads on bird species richness: A meta-analysis considering road types, habitats and feeding guilds
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Roadsides can harbour remarkable biodiversity; thus, they are increasingly considered as habitats with potential for conservation value. To improve construction and management of roadside habitats with positive effects on ... -
Implications and future prospects for evolutionary analyses of DNA in historical herbarium collections
(Journal article, 2018)Global herbarium collections house a vast number of plant specimens stretching back over centuries. They include rare and extinct species, important historical collections, and valuable type specimens that could help to ... -
Improved Genome Assembly and Annotation for the Rock Pigeon (Columba livia)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The domestic rock pigeon (Columba livia) is among the most widely distributed and phenotypically diverse avian species. C. livia is broadly studied in ecology, genetics, physiology, behavior, and evolutionary biology, and ... -
Inclusion of juvenile stages improves diversity assessment and adds to our understanding of mite ecology – A case study from mires in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Arachnid orders, Mesostigmata, Trombidiformes, and Sarcoptiformes, commonly known as ‘mites’, are abundant in mires, both as adults and as juveniles. However, due to the challenges of identification, the juvenile forms are ... -
Incomplete lineage sorting and ancient admixture, and speciation without morphological change in ghost-worm cryptic species
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Morphologically similar species, that is cryptic species, may be similar or quasi-similar owing to the deceleration of morphological evolution and stasis. While the factors underlying the deceleration of morphological ... -
Increasing Cervidae populations have variable impacts on habitat suitability for threatened forest plant and lichen species
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Large herbivores play a key role in temperate and boreal forest ecosystems. Cervidae (deer) population densities and community structure have undergone drastic changes in many parts of the world over the past decades, often ... -
Individual repeatability in marine migratory behaviour: A multi-population assessment of anadromous brown trout tracked through consecutive feeding migrations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Despite that the study of individual repeatability is a common topic in behavioral ecology, virtually nothing is known about inter-annual variability in the marine migratory behavior of iteroparous salmonids that can ... -
Inference of natural selection from ancient DNA
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Evolutionary processes, including selection, can be indirectly inferred based on patterns of genomic variation among contemporary populations or species. However, this often requires unrealistic assumptions of ancestral ... -
