Is boslandbouw de oplossing voor het Amazonegebied?
In het Amazonegebied moet veel bos plaatsmaken voor landbouw. Bij boslandbouw gaan gewassen samen met bomen en dieren. Is dat inderdaad een duurzaam alternatief - ook voor de bodem, vragen Eiko Kuramae en Márcio Leite in Global Change Biology. -
Is agroforestry the answer for rainforest restoration?
The conversion of Amazon rainforest for agriculture has led to deforestation and soil degradation. Agroforestry has been suggested as a sustainable alternative, but NIOO's Eiko Kuramae says its impact on the soil needs to be more fully considered. -
Seasonal timing of growth and reproduction: ultimate functions and proximate mechanisms
For many species, there is only a short period in the annual cycle in which conditions are suitable for reproduction or growth. -
Awakening sleeping antibiotics with ERC Advanced grant
Facilitating the search for new antibiotics: that's what Gilles van Wezel aims to do by looking at similarities in the DNA of antibiotic-producing bacteria. -
Slapende antibiotica wakker maken met ERC Advanced beurs
De zoektocht naar nieuwe antibiotica vergemakkelijken: Gilles van Wezel wil dit doen door te kijken naar overeenkomsten in het DNA van antibiotica-producerende bacteriën. -
Large herbivores can bend the curve of biodiversity loss in tropical forests
A 10-year experiment in Brazil’s endangered Atlantic Forest, led by NIOO-researcher Nacho Villar, has found that there's less biodiversity loss in areas where large herbivores can roam free. -
Minder biodiversiteitsverlies in bedreigd bos door grote grazers
In bosgebieden met grote grazers is er minder biodiversiteitsverlies. Dat is de conclusie na een tienjarig experiment in Brazilië, geleid door Nacho Villar. -
What makes soil, soil? Researchers find hidden clues in DNA
Ever wonder what makes soil, soil? And could soil from the Amazon rainforest really be the same as soil from your garden? Researchers from the University of Manchester and the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) are using DNA sequencing to unlock the secrets of the world’s soils, and analyse ecological patterns and microbial communities on a global scale.
