Advanced Microbial Technology for Sustainable Agriculture and Environment - Developments in Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology

Advanced Microbial Technology for Sustainable Agriculture and Environment focuses on plant-microbe interactions in respect to bioremediation and plant growth promotion. It also gives insight to diverse approaches including genomics, metagenomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, and other high-throughput analysis of environmentally relevant microorganisms uncovering the key biodegradative pathways and plant-microbe interactions. The impact of frequent application of potentially toxic chemicals (pesticides and fertilizers) and increased industrialization process on microbial diversity highlights the potential threat to microbial biodiversity in several ecosystems. Advanced microbial technology for sustainable agriculture and environment encompasses all information related to the application of microbes to promote plant growth and remediate all categories of toxic pollutants, biodegradation potential of various bacteria and fungi, and especially focuses on the associated eco-environmental concerns, sustainability issues, and future prospects.

Advanced Microbial Technology for Sustainable Agriculture and Environment is an ideal resource emphasizing the current trends and probable future of PGPR developments with bioremediation potential. Moreover, it also gives a deep understanding of the genetics of microbial biodegradation and different remediation mechanisms that help to re-establish the natural environment.
