PGPR Amelioration in Sustainable Agriculture: Food Security and Environmental Management
explores the growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) that are indigenous
to soil and plant rhizosphere. These microorganisms have significant
potential as important tools for sustainable agriculture. PGPR enhance
the growth of root systems and often control certain plant pathogens. As
PGPR amelioration is a fascinating subject, is multidisciplinary in
nature, and concerns scientists involved in plant heath and plant
protection, this book is an ideal resource that emphasizes the current
trends of, and probable future of, PGPR developments. Chapters
incorporate both theoretical and practical aspects and may serve as
baseline information for future research.
This book will be
useful to students, teachers and researchers, both in universities and
research institutes, especially working in areas of agricultural
microbiology, plant pathology and agronomy.
- Presents new concepts and current development in PGPR research and evaluates the implications for sustainable productivity
- Describes
the role of multi-omics approaches in establishing an understanding of
plant–microbe interactions that help plants optimize abiotic stresses
- Incorporates both theoretical and practical aspects, and will serve as a baseline for future research
