Publications
NIBIOs employees contribute to several hundred scientific articles and research reports every year. You can browse or search in our collection which contains references and links to these publications as well as other research and dissemination activities. The collection is continously updated with new and historical material.

Plant biology in Norway. Some main aspects; 1. Major efforts on micro and macro algae are now ongoing in Norway (lots of funding goes this way) 2. The pure basic plant biology research with molecular aspects are mostly at the major universities (exemplified here by Prof. Grini and Haman and in smaller groups at other institutions (exemplified by the TOPPFORSK project in epigenetics at NIBIO). 3. A lot of the plant biology in Norway is related to evolution, biodiversity and ecology in general, including climate change (Exemplified by studies in clinal variation and phenology) 4. There is a lot of applied research related to feed and food crops as well as forestry (including invasive species. abiotic stress, plant pathogen interactions insects and fungi with importance for agriculture). 5. There is a National Network for Plant Biology Research in Norway (led by Paul Grini from UiO). This network holds annual/biannual Norwegian Plant Biology conference (NorPlantBio) conferences. 6. Examples from the various institutions in Norway will now be presented.

Abstract
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from cultivated soils correlate positively with the amount of N-fertilizer applied, but a large proportion of the annual N2O emission occurs outside the cropping season, potentially blurring this correlation. We measured the effect of split-N application (total N addition varying from 0 to 220 kg N ha−1) on N2O emissions in a spring wheat plot trial in SE Norway from the time of split-N application until harvest, and during the following winter and spring thaw period. N2O emissions were largest in the two highest N-levels, whereas yield-scaled emission (N2O intensity) was highest in the 0 N treatment. Nitrogen yield increased by 23% when adding 80 kg N ha−1 compared to adding 40 kg N ha−1 as split application, while corresponding N2O emissions were reduced by 16%. No differences in measured emissions between the N-fertilization levels were observed during the winter period or during spring thaw. Measurements of soil air composition below the snow pack revealed that N2O production continued throughout winter as the concentration in the soil air increased from 0.37 to 30.0 µL L−1 N2O over the 3 months period with continuous snow cover. However, only 7–28% of the N2O emitted during spring thaw could be ascribed to accumulated N2O, indicating de novo production of N2O in the thawing soil. The direct effect of split-N fertilizer rate on N2O emissions in sub-boreal cereal cropping was limited to the first 15–21 days after N-addition.
