Springer - Role of Rhizospheric Microbes in Soil Volume 1

Environmental stresses represent a major limiting factor for global agricultural productivity. High temperatures, soil salinity, alkalinity, low pH, and metal toxicity frequently affect agro-ecosystems across the globe. These conditions not only decrease crop yields but also impact plants in the wild. This volume explores the essential relationship between plants and microbes. In any ecosystem, these organisms do more than just co-exist; they support each other's survival and provide necessary sustenance during stressful periods. By understanding how microbes function within the rhizosphere, researchers and professionals can better address the constraints of high salinity and severe drought that affect modern agricultural practices. This text provides a foundation for studying how microbial interactions can help manage soil stress and support long-term agricultural sustainability.
