Riassunto

Rhizosphere Engineering is a guide to applying environmentally sound agronomic practices to improve crop yield while also protecting soil resources. Focusing on the potential and positive impacts of appropriate practices, the book includes the use of beneficial microbes, nanotechnology and metagenomics. Developing and applying techniques that not only enhance yield, but also restore the quality of soil and water using beneficial microbes such as Bacillus, Pseudomonas, vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhiza (VAM) fungi and others are covered, along with new information on utilizing nanotechnology, quorum sensing and other technologies to further advance the science.

Designed to fill the gap between research and application, this book is written for advanced students, researchers and those seeking real-world insights for improving agricultural production.

• Explores the potential benefits of optimized rhizosphere
• Includes metagenomics and their emerging importance
• Presents insights into the use of biosurfactants

Dalla quarta di copertina

Rhizosphere Engineering is a guide to applying environmentally sound agronomic practices to improve crop yield while protecting the soil resource. Focusing on the potential positive impact of appropriate practices, the book includes the use of beneficial microbes, nanotechnology, biosurfactants and metagenomics.

As the pursuit of environmentally sustainable practices continue to be balanced against the demand for increased yield and nutritional value, the optimal management of the rhizosphere remains key. Developing and applying techniques that not only enhance yield, but restore the quality of soil and water using beneficial microbes such as Bacillus, Pseudomonas, VAM fungi and others, as well as utilizing nanotechnology, quorum sensing, and other technologies further advance the science. As the science advances, however, there must be a corresponding understanding of the appropriate application based on the specific environment and challenge scenario.

Designed to fill the gap between research and application, Rhizosphere Engineering is written for advanced students, researchers, and those seeking real-world insights for improving agricultural production.
