Micro-organisms too can cooperate and rewild
From insignificant individual cells to a rich community full of cooperation. That is how our understanding of the micro world of bacteria, fungi and other microscopic organisms has developed over the past two decades. This “microbiome” that exists on leaves and roots, for example, and in the gut and soil, has an enormous impact on the environment. Researchers at the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) are looking at functions such as the “consumption” of greenhouse gases, communication through scent and assistance to endangered plants.

De hartslag van het bos: hoe de productie van beukennootjes de samenleving in het bos beïnvloedt
Stel je voor dat je favoriete voedsel het ene jaar in enorme hoeveelheden beschikbaar is, maar het volgende jaar nergens meer te vinden is. Voor velen van ons klinkt dit als een zeer onwaarschijnlijk scenario, althans voor mensen, maar het is de realiteit voor veel diersoorten die in het bos leven en sterk afhankelijk zijn van de vruchten van planten met mastjaren.

The heartbeat of the forest: how beechnut production affects the forest community
Imagine your favourite food is available in enormous quantities in one year, but nowhere to be found the next. For many of us this sounds like a highly unlikely scenario, at least for humans, but it is the reality for many animal species living in the forest that are highly reliant on the fruits of masting plants.

Franeker en Leeuwarden winnen samen titel Bodemdierenstad van het Jaar
Normaal kan er maar ééntje winnen, maar ditmaal zijn het er twee. Zowel gemeente Leeuwarden als Waadhoeke – Franeker en omgeving – mag de eretitel Bodemdierenstad van het Jaar nu voeren. Zij lieten tijdens de Stedenbattle 2025 van het burgerwetenschapsproject de Bodemdierendagen in hoge mate zien hart te hebben voor bodemdieren en het belang van een gezonde bodem in de stad. Met name in Friesland dus.

Harnessing the seed microbiome for seed and plant performance under stress - MiSeed internship (vacature in het Engels)
The seed microbiome has gained increasing interest since it influences key aspects of plant life, including germination, seedling vigour, nutrient uptake, and tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, the microbial functions and molecular mechanisms that link seed-associated microbes to seed and plant performance remain largely unknown. -
