Bioboost: Innovative application of plants
Development of a plant biotechnology platform for low cost production of industrial enzymes to boost biorefinery of lignocellulose biomass.
Projects
NIBIO is a project driven research institute and collects approximately 400 million NOK annually in project funding from both national and international sources. A lot of activity is carried out through EU and EEA-projects and we also participate in research projects in Asia, Africa and Latin America. NIBIO coordinates several large international projects with a particular focus on food security and climate change. The list of projects is not complete.

Biotechnological solutions for optimal performance of mycorrhiza inoculants in plant production
Arable soil contains microorganisms that are hampering the formation and functioning of arbuscular mycorrhiza. The OPTIMYC project aims at identifying which organisms and microbial metabolites that are involved in suppression of arbuscular mycorrhiza
