This book shares the latest insights into the genetic basis of
molecular communication between plants and their microbial
consortia. Further, the book highlights the capabilities of the
rhizosphere and endosphere, which help manage ecosystem responses
to climate change, nutrient cycling and sequestration of carbon;
and discusses their application to the development and management
of renewable energy sources. In their natural environments, plants
are surrounded by a tremendous number of microorganisms. Some
microbes directly interact with plants in a mutually beneficial
fashion, while others colonize plants solely for their own
advantage. In addition, microbes can indirectly affect plants by
drastically altering their environments. Understanding the complex
nature of the plant-microbe interface (PMI) can pave the way for
novel strategies to improve plant productivity in an eco-friendly
manner. The PMI approach focuses on understanding the physical,
molecular, and chemical interactions between organisms in order to
determine their functional roles in biological, physical, chemical
and environmental systems. Although several metabolites from plants
and microbes have now been fully characterized, their roles in
chemical interactions between these associates remain poorly
understood, and require further investigation.
