In November 2002, P.ramorum was detected for the first time in Norway (1). It was isolated from Rhododendron catawbiense imported earlier the same year. After the first detection the Norwegian Food Safety Authority has carried out surveys from 2003 to 2006. The surveys were first directed to nurseries and garden centres. Most of the positive findings were on Rhododendron spp., but one sample of Pieris japonica, one of Kalmia sp., one of Syringa sp. and one of Viburnum sp. were also positive. In 2005 and 2006, P. ramorum was isolated from well-established viburnum and rhododendron plants in private gardens, parks and public greens. Infections were detected on well-established plants from 9 different outdoor sites. While the positive samples from nurseries were spread over the country, the positives found on well-established plants were concentrated in and around the cities of Bergen and Stavanger on the southwestern coast of Norway. This part of the country has cool summers, mild winters and more than 2000 mm of annual precipitation. In 2006, P. ramorum was found in private gardens in the eastern part of the country on young recently introduced plants. P. ramorum was found in 12 import shipments, mainly on rhododendron, but also on a viburnum sample.

In 2006, a survey of root diseases in greenhouse pot plants started in Norway. During this survey an unknown Phytophthora sp. was isolated several times. The ITSrDNA region of these isolates were sequenced and compared to the GenBank database. The determined ITS sequences of the isolates matched the sequence of Phythophthora taxon niederhauserii.The diseased plants originated from 5 different greenhouse sites. Isolates were obtained from ivy (Hedera helix), begonia-hybrids (Begonia × hiemalis and Begonais × cheimantha), gloxinia (Sinninga speciosa) and kalanchoë (Kalanchoë blossfeldiana). Symptoms on begonia, gloxinia and ivy included necrotic roots and stems with the necrosis advancing to the leaves via the petioles. In the case of ivy and gloxinia, wilting of the whole plant was observed. In kalanchoë only discoloration of roots and reduced plant growth was seen. Koch postulates have been completed for ivy and gloxinia. The pathogen caused aggressive root-rot in 22 different ivy-cultivars.

Det ble registrert betydelige mengder vekstsprekk i poteter dyrket i 2007. Dette kan ha flere årsaker, ikke bare ujevne vekstforhold. Andre årsaker kan være angrep av virus Y (PVY), skader av plantevernmidler og skader av svartskurv (Rhizoctonia solani)

Growth, size at maturity, gonadosomatic index (GSI), egg size, and absolute fecundity of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were significantly affected by oxygen levels (1.5 +/- 1.0, 2.8 +/- 1.4, and 6.0 +/- 1.8 mg center dot L-1) in a controlled experiment designed to test the hypothesis (D. Pauly. 1984. J. Cons. Int. Explor. Mer, 41: 280-284) that O-2 is the controlling factor for the transition from juvenile to adult in fish, in general, in the context of phenotypic life history plasticity and "stunting" in tilapias. Size at maturity and the estimated asymptotic size decreased with decreasing O-2 concentration, as predicted by Pauly"s hypothesis. All fish matured at the same age (18 weeks old), which is in contrast to conventional definitions of stunting. This finding challenges the suggested plasticity in age at first maturity for tilapia. The results also challenge the hypothesis that stunting is a unique recruitment mechanism, as the smaller fish in the group with low oxygen concentration produced smaller and fewer eggs than the larger fish in the group with high oxygen concentration.

In 1996, a survey on cavity spot started in Norway. Among the Pythium species isolated from the lesions a pathogenic Pythium was found that could not be identified neither by morphological nor by molecular methods (ITS sequencing). This Pythium sp. was repeatedly detected using specific primers developed for this propose and in many cases isolated from cavity spots lesions. The isolates from the new species do not produce zoospores. Oogonia are smooth walled and mostly intercalary with an average size about 20µm. Oospores are aplerotic with an average diameter approximately 17 µm and wall less then 2 µm thick. Antheridia are mostly monoclinous with a sort stalk or sessil, but diclinous antheridia are also common. The modal number of antheridia per oogonium is one or two. Some differences are observed between the isolates studied. Some isolates have a daily growth rate of ca 23 mm on PCA at 25 °C while others have a growth rate around 28 mm. The isolates that grow slower have a tendency to produce one antheridium per oogonium while the isolates with higher growth rates normally produce two. These two groups could also be differentiated based on their ITS sequences which showed 97.8% identity in the 955 base pair rDNA fragment. By using the developed PCR primers it is possible to detect isolates that do not produce the sexual stage in single cultures. These isolates have the same ITS sequence and a similar growth rate and pattern than the fast growing fertile ones.
