I am a plant pathologist, with focus on Fusarium and mycotoxins in cereals (diagnostics, biology, disease control). I am also involved in research within seed pathology and seed borne diseases.
Education: Master’s degree in Plant Sciences at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (2007). PhD in Plant Pathology at NIBIO and the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (2013).
Abstract
Bønnebladflekk, forårsaket av soppen Ascochyta fabae (kjønna stadium Didymella fabae), er en av de viktigste sjukdommene i åkerbønne (Vicia faba). Sjukdommen er utbredt i alle områder hvor det dyrkes åkerbønne. Soppen overlever og spres først og fremst med infiserte såfrø, men kan også overleve i planterester og i spillfrø. Angrep kan starte på frøplanter kort tid etter oppspiring. Alle overjordiske plantedeler kan angripes, og infeksjonen viser seg som mørke, nekrotiske bladflekker som kan vokse og etter hvert få et lysere parti i midten. Her dannes det pyknider, som fremstår som små svarte prikker. De inneholder ukjønna sporer (konidiesporer). Sporer (smitte) spres i plantebestanden hovedsakelig via regnsprut. Det er kjent at soppen kan ha et kjønna stadium som kan utvikle ascosporer som kan spres med vind over lengre avstander, men det er ukjent hvorvidt dette har betydning for overlevelse og spredning av soppen under norske forhold. Sterke angrep kan forårsake at stenglene brekker og gi problemer med legde, eller at infiserte belger hindrer utvikling av frø. I alvorlige tilfeller kan infiserte planter dø. Dyptsittende infeksjon i belgene kan gi små, skrumpne/deformerte og misfarga frø. I fuktige sesonger kan sjukdommen forårsake store avlingstap.

ProMax - Maximizing the production of Norwegian grain legumes
Cultivation of grain legumes (faba bean and field pea) in Norway has increased in the last decade and is expected to continue to do so due to several benefits. Increasing grain legume production will enhance food self-sufficiency, making it a strategic political goal in Norway.

Gene2Bread: Building knowledge and exploiting technology to achieve high wheat self-sufficiency in Norway
The project aims to increase Norway’s self-sufficiency in milling wheat by gaining knowledge to improve wheat quality and increase its utilisation. Adequate protein content and a stable quality between seasons and within a season are prerequisites to increasing the share of Norwegian wheat in the flour blend.
