Biography

As director of Norwegian Genetic Resource Centre, I am working with genetic resources for food and agriculture within animal genetic resources, plant genetic resources and forest genetic resources. I did my PhD on animal genetic resources in 2009; "Differences in grazing preferences, behaviour and production efficiency between two cattle breeds." 

I started working with conservation of Norwegian endangered dairy cattle breeds in 1990 by traveling around in most of Norway recording each animal that was left and establishing a pedigree database for these breeds, Kuregisteret (The Cow Register). This database is still of essential value both in the breeding work for these breeds and when monitoring them. Since 2000 I have been national coordinator for animal genetic resources.

Abstract

På Kvist i Høyanger i Sogn lever det en liten og helt spesiell geiteflokk. Geitene skiller seg genetisk fra både dagens norske melkegeit og kjente norske kystgeitstammer. Ny genetisk forsking gir oss solid faglig grunnlag for å ta vare på denne unike delen av norsk husdyrarv.
