Misfjordelva, Vestnes kommune - virkninger av planlagt minikraftverk på oppvandring og produksjon av fisk samt biologisk mangfold
(NTNU Vitenskapsmuseet Zoologisk Notat, 1504-503X; 2005:1, Research report, 2005) -
Mites (Oribatida and Mesostigmata) and vegetation as complementary bioindicators in peatlands
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Vegetation is widely used in the assessment of the quality of peatlands, while the invertebrate fauna of peatlands is relatively poorly studied. We compared the bioindicator values of vegetation with two arthropod groups ... -
Mitochondrial genomes of Danish vertebrate species generated for the national DNA reference database, DNAmark
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Biodiversity monitoring projects using environmental DNA techniques are becoming increasingly widespread. However, these techniques depend heavily on the quality and richness of the available DNA reference database against ... -
MobiSeq: De novo SNP discovery in model and non-model species through sequencing the flanking region of transposable elements
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)In recent years, the availability of reduced representation library (RRL) methods has catalysed an expansion of genome‐scale studies to characterize both model and non‐model organisms. Most of these methods rely on the use ... -
Modellering av heildekkande utbreiingskart for arter: Bakgrunn, konsept og arbeidsflyt
(NTNU Gjærevollsenteret;1/2024, Research report, 2024)Ei heilskapleg kartlegging av naturverdiar er avgjerande for ei kunnskapsbasert forvalting av natur. Avvegingar mellom naturverdiar og andre samfunnsinteresser kan ikkje gjerast verken på internasjonalt, nasjonalt, regionalt ... -
Modelling Capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus) lek sites distribution and their limiting factors in a central Norwegian managed forest landscape
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Forest management has substantially altered Fennoscandian forests through clear-cutting practices started during the 1950s. Impacts on the natural biodiversity in mature boreal forest have been inevitable. The Capercaillie ... -
Modelling climate change effects on Atlantic salmon: Implications for mitigation in regulated rivers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Climate change is expected to alter future temperature and discharge regimes of rivers. These regimes have a strong influence on the life history of most aquatic river species, and are key variables controlling the growth ... -
Modelling temperature-driven changes in species associations across freshwater communities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Due to global climate change–induced shifts in species distributions, estimating changes in community composition through the use of Species Distribution Models has become a key management tool. Being able to determine how ... -
Modern pollen–vegetation relationships in traditionally mown and unmanaged boreal rich-fen communities in central Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Knowledge of the relationship between vegetation and modern pollen deposition is necessary to improve the interpretation of fossil pollen samples. We compared the cover of plant species and the modern pollen deposition in ... -
Molecular clocks indicate turnover and diversification of modern coleoid cephalopods during the Mesozoic marine revolution
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Coleoid cephalopod molluscs comprise squid, cuttlefish and octopuses, and represent nearly the entire diversity of modern cephalopods. Sophisticated adaptations such as the use of colour for camouflage and communication, ... -
Molecular dietary analyses of western capercaillies (Tetrao urogallus) reveal a diverse diet
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Conservation strategies centered around species habitat protection rely on species’ dietary information. One species at the focal point of conservation efforts is the herbivorous grouse, the western capercaillie (Tetrao ... -
Molecular mechanisms underlying nuchal hump formation in dolphin cichlid, Cyrtocara moorii
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)East African cichlid fishes represent a model to tackle adaptive changes and their connection to rapid speciation and ecological distinction. In comparison to bony craniofacial tissues, adaptive morphogenesis of soft tissues ... -
Molecular parallelisms between pigmentation in the avian iris and the integument of ectothermic vertebrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Birds exhibit striking variation in eye color that arises from interactions between specialized pigment cells named chromatophores. The types of chromatophores present in the avian iris are lacking from the integument of ... -
Molecular phylogeny and temporal diversification of Tanytarsus van der Wulp (Diptera: Chironomidae) support generic synonymies, a new classification and centre of origin
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Tanytarsus van der Wulp, with 355 currently known valid species, is a comparatively large genus of nonbiting midges (Diptera: Chironomidae). Relationships among Tanytarsus and associated genera and among species in the ... -
Molecular Species Delimitation in the Racomitrium canescens Complex (Grimmiaceae) and Implications for DNA Barcoding of Species Complexes in Mosses
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)In bryophytes a morphological species concept is still most commonly employed, but delimitation of closely related species based on morphological characters is often difficult. Here we test morphological species circumscriptions ... -
Molecular systematics and character evolution in the lichen family Ramalinaceae (Ascomycota: Lecanorales)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The Ramalinaceae is the fourth‐largest family of lichenized ascomycetes with 42 genera and 913 species exhibiting considerable morphological variation. Historically, generic boundaries in the Ramalinaceae were primarily ... -
Moose effects on soil temperatures, tree canopies, and understory vegetation: a path analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Large vertebrate herbivores are ubiquitous and increasingly numerous in boreal forests where they are known to influence ecosystems in many ways. However, separating the direct effects of herbivores from their indirect ... -
Morphological ontogeny of Platynothrus troendelagicus sp. nov. (Acari, Oribatida, Camisiidae) from Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The morphological ontogeny of Platynothrus troendelagicus A. et S. Seniczak sp. nov. is described and illustrated. This species was found in two Atlantic raised bogs in Trøndelag, Norway, and based on comparison of cytochrome ... -
