De siste årene har det blitt rapportert om stedvis kraftige angrep av gransnutebiller i foryngelsesfelt på Vestlandet og i Trøndelagsfylkene. Vi ønsket derfor å gjennomføre en undersøkelse av snutebilleskader i felt på Vestlandet og i Trøndelag. Til sammen 50 flater i kystfylkene Rogaland, Hordaland, Sogn og Fjordane, Møre og Romsdal, Sør-Trøndelag og Nord-Trøndelag ble undersøkt høsten 2009. Disse var plantet til i 2008 eller 2009, og det hadde ikke gått mer enn to sesonger siden hogst ved tilplantingen. På hvert felt ble alle kulturplantene på 20 sirkelflater á 20 m2 undersøkt for snutebillegnag og andre skader, og vitaliteten ble bedømt i fire klasser. For hvert felt ble variabler som høyde over havet, flatestørrelse, helling, eksposisjon og plantetype registrert.....

The OSCAR network was formed in 2005 and includes five Nordic forest research institutes Metla (Finland), Mesäteho (Finland), Skogforsk (Sweden), Skov & Landskab (Denmark) and Skog og Landskap (Norway) and SILAVA (Latvia). The network is open for all relevant research bodies in the Nordic and Baltic countries. OSCAR is one of five virtual centres of advanced research financed by the Nordic Forest Research Cooperation Committee (SNS). The main target of OSCAR is increasing the excellence and critical mass of R&D within the field of forest operations research by integrating research resources and expertise, besides promoting and developing efficient, competitive and environmentally friendly forest operation systems on a joint Nordic basis....

Ett skördaraggregat med sågsvärd och matarhjul gav högst prestation i en avverkning av skogsbränsle. Det hade bättre flerträdshantering än övriga aggregat i studien och tack vare matarhjulen lättare att få ner trädknippena på marken.

Wood is a traditional building material but in general it underlies restrictions in outdoor applications due to its respective durability against microbiological decay. To face this problem, different impregnation systems are applied to enhance the materials\" servicelife. Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) is the most widely distributed pine in Eurasia and hence easily available. Despite of the previously defined good treatability of Scots pine sapwood, large differences in treatment performance are reported from industry. As process parameters are always adjusted to the material most difficult to treat, permeability variations in wood material are an economical problem. Therefore, it is important to understand the material in order to make a more reasonable material selection possible.....

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small RNAs that can have large-scale regulatory effect and could participate in epigenetic regulation of gene expression in plants. We show for the first time that temperature during zygotic embryogenesis and seed maturation in Norway spruce regulates an “epigenetic memory” in the progeny, regenerated through somatic embryogenesis. The warmer the in vitro temperature applied, the later the regenerated plants formed terminal buds in the common environment the second growth season. The differences were very large, and similar in size to a provenance separation of 4 – 6 degrees of latitude (Kvaalen and Johnsen, 2008). To study a molecular mechanisms of a memory from embryo development we have prepared two concatemerized small RNA libraries representing small RNAs predominantly expressed in plants growing from seeds obtained after embryogenesis in cold environment (CEL) and warm environment (WEL) after short day (SD) treatment (going to bud set). In total we obtained 201 different small RNAs, with dominated length of 21-nt, 123 from WEL and 93 from CEL. Using multiple methods, including BLAST, sequence alignment and sequence folding we found 27 novel candidate miRNAs and only 3 earlier described. Additionally 103 small RNAs have exact matches in spruce EST database, which could be their putative targets and 67 small RNAs have no matches. We used quantitative RT–PCR to study the expression patterns of 31 chosen candidate miRNAs and monitor the occurrence stage-dependent miRNA-mediated cleavage for 4 regions of putative mRNA targets. All miRNA show difference in transcript levels after SD treatment and 12 miRNAs show constitutively differential expression in progeny from CE and WE.
