NIOO Thema Biodiversiteit
Het NIOO doet op alle niveaus onderzoek aan de biodiversiteit. Kleine en grote organismen, van genetische diversiteit tot de diversiteit van soorten en zowel op het land als in het water. Met de uitkomsten van ons onderzoek kunnen we de biodiversiteit in Nederland en daarbuiten beter beschermen. -
A living, breathing building
As sustainable as possible, in as many respects as possible: that was the imperative when the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) commissioned a new building. And we have done it! -
Multifunctioneel terrein
Naast zonnepanelen, helofytenfilters en andere ecotechnologie hebben we ook kassen, volières en vijvers. -
Haal de natuur de stad in!
Wat kunnen we allemaal doen om maximale biodiversiteit op het terrein te krijgen? -
Gulden sleutelbloemen tellen als graadmeter voor gezonde natuur
02/05/2022 Vorig jaar zijn er in heel Europa bijna 400.000 gulden sleutelbloemen gecheckt. Ook in het voorjaar van 2022 kunnen vrijwilligers weer helpen tellen. -
Working together
There’s a lot that we can learn from nature! Performing and promoting research, together with policy makers, nature managers and businesses - and sharing the new knowledge it produces. That is NIOO's strength. -
Farming microbial community for plant probiotic - MicroProFarm
A current challenge for modern agriculture is to meet the food production needs for an increasing global population while improving resource use efficiency and attenuating impacts on human health and environment. In order to maximize reliability and stability in agriculture, optimization of crop management and resource use efficiency have been considered the best approaches for a sustainable increase of crop yields under variable agro-ecological conditions, environments and years. For this purpose, one interesting and sustainable method is the use of natural plant biostimulants, a diverse class of products and microorganisms that enhance plant growth and other plant parameters, such as flowering, fruit set, crop productivity and nutrient use efficiency. In this context, several studies already demonstrated that plant biostimulants can induce morpho-anatomical, biochemical, physiological and molecular plant responses, not only improving crop productivity but also promoting protection against abiotic stresses, such as drought and salinity. Among the different biostimulant classes there are protein hydrolysates (PH), mixtures of polypeptides, oligopeptides and aminoacids originated from partially hydrolyzed animal and vegetal tissues. Even though the effect of PH were already observed in diverse crops, the mechanisms and behind their action are still scarcely studied, and their action can vary depending on their origin, characteristics, crop species, cultivars, growing conditions, time and mode of applications, among other parameters. The objective of this project is to evaluate the effect of protein hydrolysates in the growth, nutrient content and microbial communities of crops, if microbes are responsible for these effects, which are the mechanisms and if such effects are long-lasting. -
NIOO Theme Biodiversity
In order to protect, or restore biodiversity, it is crucial to consider all forms of life within their entire context. The strength of NIOO-based research is that it integrates all of the different levels and scales that make up biodiversity, from genetic diversity to species diversity, from small to large organisms, from trophic interactions to communities and ecosystems, and in a wide range of terrestrial and aquatic habitats. Therefore, NIOO is in the right position to make a substantial and scientifically important contribution to the societal goal of the SDGs. -
Samenwerken
Van de natuur valt veel te leren! Onderzoek stimuleren, samen met beleidsmakers, natuurbeheerders en bedrijven onderzoek doen en die nieuwe kennis daarna delen. Dat is de kracht van het NIOO. -
Een gebouw dat leeft
Het Nederlands Instituut voor Ecologie (NIOO-KNAW) wilde een zo duurzaam mogelijk gebouw, in allerlei opzichten, als nieuwe vestiging.
