- Book Synopsis
- This book provides an understanding of the intricate structure of the plant-microbe interface for increasing plant performance in an environmentally sustainable way. Plant microbiomes, often known as the bacteria associated with plants such as rhizospheric, phyllosphere, and entophytic, are essential components of plant life. Importance of plant microbiomes is a trustworthy strategy for sustainability to handle upcoming food shortages and restore soil health. Understanding the relationships between plants and microorganisms is advancing with the concept of profiling plant-associated microbiomes (genome assemblies of all bacteria). Through a number of ways, the microbiota increases the plant's ability to adapt to changing environmental conditions. Therefore, it is crucial to solving the riddle of plant-microbe dynamics using cutting-edge technologies to comprehend the function of metabolites and signal route mechanisms. Recent developments in omics technologies for unravelling plant-microbe dynamic interactions and other novel phytotechnologies for soil health improvement are discussed at length in this volume, as well as novel methods for improved agricultural and environmental sustainability. Teachers, academics, plant biologists, and researchers will all find this book interesting. Students studying agriculture, microbiology, biotechnology, ecology, soil science, and environmental sciences at the undergraduate and graduate levels can also use the book as supplemental reading material.
