• EST resources and establishment and validation of a 16 k cDNA microarray from Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) 

      Edvardsen, Rolf B.; Malde, Ketil; Mittelholzer, Christian; Taranger, Geir Lasse; Nilsen, Frank (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-06-28)
      The Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, is an important species both for traditional fishery and increasingly also in fish farming. The Atlantic cod is also under potential threat from various environmental changes such as pollution ...
    • Exploration and learning of demand-feeding in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) 

      Nilsson, Jonatan; Torgersen, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-08-15)
      A bite–and–pull demand–feeding system was introduced to groups of cultured cod (Gadus morhua). For half of the groups trigger actuations were rewarded with food, while actuations were unrewarded in the other groups. ...
    • The fate of vitellogenic follicles in experimentally monitored Atlantic cod Gadus morhua (L.): Application to stock assessment 

      Witthames, Peter R.; Thorsen, Anders; Kjesbu, Olav Sigurd (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-05)
      In this paper we report on the fate of vitellogenic follicles (VF) as either alpha atretic follicles (αF) or post-ovulatory follicles (POFs) using histology and captive Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) in three experiments. In ...
    • Genomic organization and gene expression of the multiple globins in Atlantic cod: conservation of globin-flanking genes in chordates infers the origin of the vertebrate globin clusters 

      Wetten, Ola F.; Nederbragt, Alexander J.; Wilson, Robert C.; Jakobsen, Kjetill S.; Edvardsen, Rolf B.; Andersen, Øivind (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-10-20)
      Background: The vertebrate globin genes encoding the α- and β-subunits of the tetrameric hemoglobins are clustered at two unlinked loci. The highly conserved linear order of the genes flanking the hemoglobins provides a ...
    • RNA deep sequencing of the Atlantic cod transcriptome 

      Johansen, Steinar D.; Karlsen, Bård Ove; Furmanek, Tomasz; Andreassen, Morten; Jørgensen, Tor Erik; Bizuayehu, Teshome T.; Breines, Ragna; Emblem, Åse; Kettunen, Päivi; Luukko, Keijo; Edvardsen, Rolf B.; Nordeide, Jarle Tryti; Coucheron, Dag H.; Moum, Truls (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-05-20)
      The Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is an emerging aquaculture species. Efforts to develop and characterize its genomic recourses, including draft-grade genome sequencing, have been initiated by the research community. The ...
    • The genome sequence of Atlantic cod reveals a unique immune system 

      Star, Bastiaan; Nederbragt, Alexander J.; Jentoft, Sissel; Grimholt, Unni; Malmstrøm, Martin; Gregers, Tone F.; Rounge, Trine B.; Paulsen, Jonas; Solbakken, Monica H.; Sharma, Animesh; Wetten, Ola F.; Lanzén, Anders; Winer, Roger; Knight, James; Vogel, Jan-Hinnerk; Aken, Bronwen; Andersen, Øivind; Lagesen, Karin; Tooming-Klunderud, Ave; Edvardsen, Rolf B.; Tina, Kirubakaran G.; Espelund, Mari; Nepal, Chirag; Previti, Christopher; Karlsen, Bård Ove; Moum, Truls; Skage, Morten; Berg, Paul R.; Gjøen, Tor; Kuhl, Heiner; Thorsen, Jim; Malde, Ketil; Reinhardt, Richard; Du, Lei; Johansen, Steinar D.; Searle, Steve; Lien, Sigbjørn; Nilsen, Frank; Jonassen, Inge; Omholt, Stig W.; Stenseth, Nils Christian; Jakobsen, Kjetill S. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-08-10)
      Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is a large, cold-adapted teleost that sustains long-standing commercial fisheries and incipient aquaculture. Here we present the genome sequence of Atlantic cod, showing evidence for complex ...
    • Thermal niche of Atlantic cod Gadus morhua: limits, tolerance and optima 

      Righton, David; Andersen, Ken Haste; Neat, Francis; Thorsteinsson, Vilhjalmur; Steingrund, P.; Svedäng, Henrik; Michalsen, Kathrine; Hinrichsen, Hans-Harald; Bendall, Victoria; Neuenfeldt, Stefan; Wright, Peter; Jonsson, Patrik; Huse, Geir; Kooij, Jeroen van der; Mosegaard, Henrik; Hüssy, Karin; Metcalfe, Julian D. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)
      Recent studies in the marine environment have suggested that the limited phenotypic plasticity of cold-adapted species such as Atlantic cod Gadus morhua L. will cause distributions to shift toward the poles in response to ...
