An interdisciplinary study, based on downscaled climate change scenarios and interviews with local farmers in Northern Norway, has assessed biological and agronomic effects of climate change, and interaction with political, economic and social factors. The study confirms that farmers are facing complex challenges. Negative effects from climate change combine with other challenges.

In Norway, regulations for harvesting seaweed apply to seabed algae such as Laminaria hyperborea. Harvest of foreshore algae such as Ascophyllum nodosum is not regulated, but is regulated by private owner rights because the species grow in the tidal zone. Environmental protection laws and other regulations can restrict areas for harvesting. Regulations of aquaculture of seaweed are under development.

Plasmopara halstedii is a diploid oomycete plant pathogen causing downy mildew on sunflower (Helianthus annuus). Due to changes in cultural systems and the introduction of new exotic cultivars, the pathogen developed many races and have now become a serious problem affecting sunflower growing fields in Europe. The yield losses in sunflower crop caused by P. halstedii can be up to 85 %.

The global spread of dengue fever threatens a large percentage of the world’s population. The disease causes great human suffering, a high mortality from dengue haemorrhagic fever and its complications, and major costs. There is currently no vaccine to prevent dengue virus infection. Our project aims to express a tetravalent vaccine candidate in tobacco chloroplasts, a cost effective system, and hence to contribute to innovation and bio-economy as a long term goal.

Poinsettia is one of the most important potted ornamentals for Christmas. Appropriate plant height is an important trait in poinsettia production. Concern about the negative effects of chemical growth retardants has limited their availability and use. Generation of compact poinsettia plants by genetic transformation has become a promising approach.
