この電子書籍について

Rhizomicrobiome: Current Status and Future Prospects for Agriculture and Environment explores the important potential of biocontrol agents in the reduction of overexploitation of synthetic pesticides, enhancing crop production, and maintaining the natural texture and health of agricultural soils. As concerns about sustainable production challenge current practices, this book presents opportunities for utilizing biological systems as part of the solution. Rhizomicrobiome is a significant part of plant biological system which impacts the plant growth and survival in different physiological conditions. Its composition includes different microbial networks whose presence is mainly impacted by the root exudates. Archaea, bacteria, protozoa, fungi, oomycetes, nematodes, microarthropods etc. are the significant parts of the rhizomicrobiome. Rhizomicrobiome could be that novel ecosystem housing the bioinoculants that can help create sustainable, productive growth environments. Written by a team of global experts Rhizomicrobiome explores the full range of rhizomicrobiome topics including sustainable agriculture, food security, and environmental management and will be a valuable resource for researchers, academics and advanced students. - Introduces the latest advancement in the sustainable agricultural practices, microbial biocontrol, and environmental management - Presents the prospects of, wide applications of, traditional uses of, and modern practices of harnessing the potential of rhizomicrobiome - Includes informative illustrations of recent trends of phyto and soil microbiome
