9780443329326: Decoding Plant-environment-microbiome Interactions in Stress-resilient Agriculture

Synopsis

Decoding Plant-Environment-Microbiome Interactions in Stress-Resilient Agriculture provides foundational as well as future-facing insights into the emerging field of phytomicrobiome. Highlighting its unique advantages in addressing stressed soils and optimizing crop production this book specifically delves into the potential of phytomicrobiomes as natural bioresources to be optimized for improved interactions. Research has shown that the phytomicrobiome, comprising root-associated microbiota, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), endophytes, phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms (PSMs), arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, and actinomycetal populations, can enhance stress tolerance and ameliorate contaminated soils, enabling sustainable crop production under adverse conditions. However, the precise mechanisms through which the phytomicrobiome enhances stress resilience remain largely unexplored. Successful utilization of these natural bioresources in agriculture necessitates a comprehensive understanding of the intricate interplay between phytomicrobiomes and stressed plants, from fundamental processes to mechanistic insights. Presenting data and insights from globally recognized scientists and academicians with extensive research experience in microbiome-plant interactions Decoding Plant-Environment_Microbiome Interactions provides readers with the latest information and enables further advancements.

Eloisa Pajuelo is a professor of microbiology at the University of Seville, in Spain. She has 25 years of experience studying plant-microbe interactions, particularly the interaction of legumes with rhizobia, microbiota of halophytes under stress by heavy metals, and stresses caused by factors involved in climate change (namely salinity, drought, and low/high temperature). Her current research focuses on the design and application of biofertilizers in the current situation of multiple stresses that constraint plant growth. Dr. Pajuelo's expertise also includes soil bacteria dynamics, endophytes, PGPR, and phytoremediation. She has published over 125 papers and book chapters in highly recognized peer reviewed international journals.
