Microbial Consortia in Plant Science and Sustainable Agriculture

About this book

An up-to-date discussion of how agriculturally important bacteria enhance plant productivity and stress tolerance

In Microbial Consortia in Plant Science and Sustainable Agriculture, a team of distinguished researchers delivers an expert discussion of how bacteria can be used to enhance plant productivity and alleviate stress in plants. The book focuses on the physiological, biochemical, and molecular aspects of microbial consortia. It updates the existing body of knowledge with the latest studies on the benefits of using plant growth-promoting bacteria.

You'll find expansive explorations of how bacteria counteract the stress caused by abiotic factors. You'll also discover deep dives into plant-microbiota interactions and various molecular methods used by microbial consortia to diagnose plant diseases.

Inside the book:

  • A thorough introduction to the identification of plant-derived microbial consortia to biotic stresses
  • Comprehensive explorations of probiotics as plant biostimulants for sustainable agriculture
  • Practical discussions of how to control root and foliar plant diseases with microbial consortia
  • Complete treatments of the use of microbial consortia to increase crop resilience in droughts and as biofertilizers and biocontrol agents

Perfect for researchers, academics, students, and professionals working in the agricultural and biological sciences, Microbial Consortia will also benefit professionals in the bio-fertilizer and bio-pesticide industries.
