This two-volume work is a testament to the increasing interest in
the role of microbes in sustainable agriculture and food security.
Advances in microbial technologies are explored in chapters dealing
with topics such as carbon sequestration, soil fertility
management, sustainable crop production, and microbial signaling
networks. Volume I is a collection of research findings that
invites readers to examine the application of microbes in
reinstating degraded ecosystems and also in establishing
sustainable croplands. Highly readable entries attempt to close the
knowledge gap between soil microbial associations and sustainable
agriculture. An increase in the global population with changing
climate is leading to environments of various abiotic and biotic
stresses for agricultural crops. It therefore becomes important to
identify the techniques to improve soil fertility and function
using different microbial groups such as actinobacteria,
microalgae, fluorescent pseudomonads and cyanobacterial systems.
These are examined in this volume in greater detail. This work is a
significant contribution to research in this increasingly important
discipline, and will appeal to researchers in microbiology,
agriculture, environmental sciences, and soil and crop sciences.
This two-volume work is a testament to the increasing interest in
the role of microbes in sustainable agriculture and food security.
Advances in microbial technologies are explored in chapters dealing
with topics such as plant-microbe interactions, rhizoremediation
and cyanoremediation, and bio-immobilization. Volume II is a
collection of research findings that invites readers to examine the
application of microbes in pollution reduction, decontamination of
agro- and aquatic ecosystems, and remediation of various toxic
compounds. Highly readable entries attempt to close the knowledge
gap between soil microbial associations and sustainable
agriculture. Traditional agricultural management techniques have
relied heavily on application of chemical fertilizers and
pesticides; and recent land use change practices have led to over
exploitation of natural resources. Strategies outlined here
simplify a complicated picture of the way microbial communities can
improve the quality of environment and eliminate food scarcity in
the coming generations. This work is a significant contribution to
research in this increasingly important discipline of soil
sciences, and will appeal to researchers in microbiology,
agriculture, environmental sciences, and soil and crop sciences.

Microbes in Land Use Change Management details the various roles of
microbial resources in management of land uses and how the microbes
can be used for the source of income due to their cultivation for
the purpose of biomass and bioenergy production. Using various
techniques, the disturbed and marginal lands may also be restored
eco-friendly in present era to fulfil the feeding needs of mankind
around the globe. Microbes in Land Use Change Management provides
standard and up to date information towards the land use change
management using various microbial technologies to enhance the
productivity of agriculture. Needless to say that Microbes in Land
Use Change Management also considers the areas including generation
of alternative energy sources, restoration of degraded and marginal
lands, mitigation of global warming gases and next generation
-omics technique etc. Land use change affects environment
conditions and soil microbial community. Microbial population and
its species diversity have influence in maintaining ecosystem
balance. The study of changes of microbial population provides an
idea about the variation occurring in a specific area and
possibilities of restoration. Meant for a multidisciplinary
audience Microbes in Land Use Change Management shows the need of
next-generation omics technologies to explore microbial diversity.

conditions in soil that can provide economic and environmental
benefits toward agricultural sustainability. The utilization of
microbes ranges from applications in biotechnology, marginal land
restoration, the formulation of microbial inoculants, the
enhancement of crop productivity, and the mitigation of global
warming gases. Finally, various uses for microbial resources in
crop disease management, bioenergy production, and income based on
microbial cultivation are explored.
New and Future Developments in Microbial Biotechnology and
Bioengineering: Microbial Biotechnology in Agro-environmental
Sustainability describes, in detail, the various roles of microbial
resources in the management of crop diseases and how microbes can
be used as a source of income for biomass and bioenergy production.
In addition, the book covers microbial inoculants as
bio-fertilizers to enhance crop productivity, along with degraded
land restoration. Users will find the latest information in the
field of microbial biotechnology and its further applications in
bio-fertilizers, bio-pesticides, its generation as an alternative
source of energy, restoration degraded and marginal lands, the
mitigation of global warming gases, and more.
Microbial Services in Restoration Ecology describes the role of
microbial resources and their beneficial services in soil fertility
and restoration of degraded ecosystems. The role of microbial
interactions with crop plants which benefit agricultural
productivity is also discussed. The book also includes significant
advances in microbial based bio-pesticide production and strategies
for high-density bio-inoculant cultivation to improve stress
survivability of crop plants. This work provides next-generation
molecular technologies for exploring complex microbial secondary
metabolites and metabolic regulation in viability of plant-microbe
interactions.
