The sensory appeal of strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) depends on its chemical composition, including sugars, organic acids, and aroma-active volatiles. To investigate the effects of temperature and light conditions on fruit quality, strawberry plants (cv. Sonsation) were grown at six temperature regimes (9, 12, 15, 18, 21 °C, and 21/9 °C-day/night) and four combinations of light intensities (150 and 300 μmol/m2/s) and photoperiods (12 and 24 h/day). Yield, °Brix/acidity ratio and volatile compounds were assessed. °Brix increased with light intensity and photoperiod, while higher temperatures (15–21 °C) correlated with acidity. A favorable °Brix/acidity ratio correlated with both continuous light and high light intensity, as well as low ripening temperature. Volatile content peaked at 15 °C, and declined at 9 °C, proportionally elevating acids and reducing terpenoids. The findings indicate that extended high-intensity light can optimize sweetness and aroma in cv. Sonsation, whereas low temperatures benefit the °Brix-acidity balance but may reduce volatile compound development.

Fire ulike saltvassbaserte fiskeslam frå matfisk blei testa som gjødsel til eittårig raigras i eit potteforsøk i veksthus, og samanlikna med behandling utan gjødsel og planter tilførd mineralgjødsel. Alle typar slam vart doserte i ei mengde tilsvarande 3 kg fosfor/dekar. Gjødseleffekten til fosfor i fiskeslam var kring 45 % sammenliga med fosfor i mineralgjødsel for tre av fiskeslamslaga og 26 % for det fjerde. Fosforeffekten til fiskeslam var sannsynlegvis negativt påvirka av uønska høgt pH i jorblandinga brukt i forsøket. Nitrogen-effekten av fiskeslammet er estimert til å vera fråverande eller negativ. Bruk av fiskeslam gav ikkje problem med uynskte sporstoff inkludert salt eller andre giftige grunnstoff. Det er sannsynleg at me bør sjå på slammet som ei råvare til vidare foredling snarare enn eit fullt ferdig gjødselprodukt.

ASO er Norges første nasjonale, arealrepresentative overvåking av semi-naturlig eng, en truet naturtype med stort artsmangfold. I perioden 2021–2025 ble 713 enger registrert over hele landet. Estimert areal av seminaturlig eng er 2 200–4 500 km² (0,7–1,5 % av Norges landareal), betydelig mer enn tidligere kartlagt. 40 % av engene er intakte, men majoriteten er ikke i bruk og i ferd med å gro igjen. Problemarter og fremmede arter utgjør viktige påvirkningfaktorer, og 32 % av engene har fremmedartsinnslag. Artsmangfoldet er størst i slåttemark og naturbeitemark, og 35 rødlistede arter ble funnet. Rapporten gir anbefalinger for videre overvåking, inkludert justering av metoder, bedre datalagring og overgang til NiN 3.0. ASO gir viktig kunnskap for forvaltning og bevaring av semi-naturlig eng og dens artsmangfold i Norge.

Are ecological scaling relationships stable through time, or can shifting parameters signal “quiet” community reorganization before diversity loss becomes evident? Using a century-long resurvey of subalpine and alpine vegetation along an elevational gradient in Norway, we tested whether key scaling relationships linking (I) spatial extent to diversity, (II) elevational distance to compositional and functional dissimilarity, and (III) species commonness to occupancy have remained stable through time. In 2008 and 2022, we resurveyed semi-permanent plots in central Norway first sampled in 1923–1933 along 995–1495 m.a.s.l., aggregating plots into 50-m elevational belts. We quantified spatial scaling of diversity with area, community differences across elevation, and relationships linked to species commonness and occupancy. Scaling relationships revealed a reorganization that is not captured by richness alone. Large-scale community structuring across elevation remained remarkably stable over the past century, with largely unchanged species– area relationships, beta and zeta diversity, and abundance–occupancy relationships. Despite this, absolute dissimilarity across elevational belts declined with beta diversity increasingly driven by species turnover while the nestedness component weakened. Communities also became progressively characterised by more widespread, common species and a more even abundance distribution, in addition to a convergence of ecological preferences. While the elevational gradient has not collapsed into a uniform assemblage, key scaling parameters within the gradient have shifted. These changes suggest a gradual compositional and functional reorganization of the vegetation that might for now maintain ecosystem functioning through dominant generalists, while quietly eroding long-term ecosystem resilience through species losses.

This report presents results from apple cultivar testing at NIBIO Ullensvang during 2016–2024. In total, 23 cultivars and advanced selections were evaluated for flowering, harvest time, yield, tree efficiency, fruit quality, and potential storage performance. Clear differences were found among cultivars in productivity and market suitability. ‘Fonn’ and ‘Jonagold Decosta Robijn’ were the most promising cultivars, combining high and stable yields, good fruit quality, and attractive fruit size. Both of them can be recommended for further commercial testing in a wide scale. Cultivar ‘Santana’ showed value as a niche cultivar because of its stable yield, scab resistance, and suitability for low-allergen and organic production, although its relatively high acidity reduced taste scores. Small fruited cultivar ‘Early Crunch’ produces very tasteful fruits and may have potential in the snack-apple segment.
