About This Book
Beneficial Microbes for Sustainable Agriculture under Abiotic Stress: Funtional Traits and Regulation highlights the potential for microbe-mediated stress phytolerance to be improved by presenting multiple scenarios of application and results.
In most research and studies, abiotic stress is applied singularly to specific plants inoculated with a bioinoculum or a bacterial consortium to isolate specific plant-microbe responses. However, in reality, plants are continually exposed to a multitude of different stresses simultaneously occurring. This book presents bacteria functional traits and bacteria-mediated plant responses under both specific or combined stress conditions. Collectively, it provides insights into bacterial functional traits and bacteria-mediated plant responses in a wide range of conditions, providing foundational understanding of their potential benefits, and inspiring further research.
The book centers on specific bacterial strains and groups which have been shown to effectively promote stress tolerance, and which could be utilized to boost agricultural production under stress conditions. Their potential utilization in stress affected lands not just improves crop production but could also be in line with sustainable agriculture.
With the advancement of tools such as Omics related technologies, emerging information on bacterial functional traits and regulations on bacteria mediated phytotolerance will also allow us to develop relevant biotechnologies harnessing potentials of plant-bacteria interactions under stress conditions. The information in this volume will be of interest to those working toward these next steps.
- Includes microbial functional traits and responses common to all stresses, unique to specific stress and shared by multiple stresses
- Focuses on microbial strains and groups proven to be most effective in promoting stress tolerance
- Explores opportunities toward improvement of sustainable agriculture and resulting food security
