    • Chronic wasting disease associated with prion protein gene (PRNP) variation in Norwegian wild reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) 

      Guere Calderon, Mariella Evelyn; Våge, Jørn; Tharaldsen, Helene; Benestad, Sylvie Lafond; Vikøren, Turid; Madslien, Knut Ivar Engesæter; Hopp, Petter; Rolandsen, Christer Moe; Røed, Knut; Tranulis, Michael A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The emergence of CWD in Europe in 2016 and the first natural infection in wild reindeer warranted disease management. This led to the testing of 2424 hunted or culled reindeer during 2016–2018, from the infected subpopulation ...
    • Hunting strategies to increase detection of chronic wasting disease in cervids 

      Mysterud, Atle; Hopp, Petter; Alvseike, Kristin Ruud; Benestad, Sylvie L.; Nilsen, Erlend Birkeland; Rolandsen, Christer Moe; Strand, Olav; Våge, Jørn; Viljugrein, Hildegunn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The successful mitigation of emerging wildlife diseases may involve controversial host culling. For livestock, ‘preemptive host culling’ is an accepted practice involving the removal of herds with known contact to infected ...

    • Sporadic cases of chronic wasting disease in old moose – an epidemiological study 

      Hopp, Petter; Rolandsen, Christer Moe; Korpenfelt, Sirkka-Liisa; Våge, Jørn; Sörén, Kaisa; Solberg, Erling Johan; Averhed, Gustav; Pusenius, Jyrki; Rosendal, Thomas; Ericsson, Göran; Bakka, Haakon Christopher; Mysterud, Atle; Gavier-Widén, Dolores; Hautaniemi, Maria; Ågren, Erik; Isomursu, Marja; Madslien, Knut; Benestad, Sylvie L.; Nöremark, Maria (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)
      Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies or prion diseases comprise diseases with different levels of contagiousness under natural conditions. The hypothesis has been raised that the chronic wasting disease (CWD) cases ...
    • The demographic pattern of infection with chronic wasting disease in reindeer at an early epidemic stage 

      Mysterud, Atle; Madslien, Knut Ivar Engesæter; Viljugrein, Hildegunn; Vikøren, Turid; Andersen, Roy; Guere Calderon, Mariella Evelyn; Benestad, Sylvie Lafond; Hopp, Petter; Strand, Olav; Ytrehus, Bjørnar; Røed, Knut; Rolandsen, Christer Moe; Våge, Jørn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Infection patterns linked to age and sex are crucial to predict the population dynamic effects of diseases in long-lived species. How such demographic patterns of infection arise is often multifactorial, although the cause ...
