This book is about the role played by microbes in their community
mode in sustaining ecosystems. The descriptions given in its
chapters indicate clearly that microbial communities are more
effective in delivering multifaceted benefits to the soil-plant
system than those offered by microbial monocultures in planktonic
modes. The role these communities play in a multitude of
microbe-microbe and plant-microbe interactions have not yet been
fully exploited to gain benefits in this field as well as to
achieve sustainability in agriculture practices. Amply discussed
are the beneficial characteristics and metabolic capacities of
specific microbial groups and the use of microbial traits for the
benefit of plant growth. The book suggests the need to develop new
microbial technologies to utilize plant-associated microbes for
increased crop productivity and agroecosystem balance in order to
ensure sustainability. This also provides an effective guidance to
scientists, academics, researchers, students and policy makers of
the sphere to achieve the above outcomes.
