Rhizosphere: Ecology, Management and Application highlights the use of the rhizosphere microbiome to improve plant and soil health, including strengthening stress resistance and remediating negatively impacted soils. The book focuses on current developments and applications of related low input management strategies in high-value crops as well as non-food plants. Further sections provide insights into the ecology and functions of these interactions, including evidence that plant microbiota is vital for plant growth and stress resilience and health. It highlights fundamental microbiome research to help readers better understand the dynamics within microbial communities and their interactions with various plant hosts and the environment.
Microbial-root associations are essential to assist plants under abiotic and biotic stresses and are necessary and beneficial to enhancing agricultural crop production. Numerous studies have enhanced our vision of the complex interactions between the plant, the associated microbial communities, and the environment. Further, microbe – microbe interactions allow the simulation microbial community interactions naturally, and is one of the many modern methods for the development of novel and effective metabolites.
