New and emerging strategies to improve the survival and activity of microbial inoculants are covered, including the use of selected indigenous microbes, optimizing microbial delivery methods, and taking advantage of modern gene editing tools to engineer microbial inoculants. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two highly qualified authors address new molecular tools and powerful biotechnological advances, providing readers with knowledge of the complex chemical and biological interactions that occur in the rhizosphere and ensuring that strategies to engineer the rhizosphere are safe, beneficial to productivity, and result in improvements to the sustainability of agricultural systems. The relationship between phyllosphere microbial communities and functional traits of plants is also explored. Finally, approaches and priority areas for future research on phyllosphere microbiology are suggested. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTopics covered in this comprehensive resource include: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Transmission modes of bacteria and fungi and the nature of their interactions in the endosphere\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Characteristics of 'core microbiomes’, which may be deployed to organize otherwise uncontrollable dynamics of resident microbiomes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Model microbiome-plant systems, as well as the stability, resilience, and assembly of agricultural microbiomes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Engineering and management of agricultural microbiomes for improving crop health, including reasons to modify plant microbiomes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Microbiome research in the omics era and new efforts and challenges in assigning functions to microbes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor students of plant biotechnology, agricultural sciences, and agricultural engineering, along with researchers working in related fields, \u003ci\u003eMicrobiomics and Sustainable Crop Production\u003c\/i\u003e is an important resource to understand many complex modern ideas related to the subject and how they can be applied to practical applications.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mohammad Yaseen Mir, Saima Hamid\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1119799317\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781119799313\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/20\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.06h x 6.06w x 0.94d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mohammad Yaseen Mir","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44071321141503,"sku":"9781119799313","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_11075207-859d-4c38-957c-af6efe4479f9.jpg?v=1685435417","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/microbiomics-and-sustainable-crop-production-mohammad-y-mir-9781119799313","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
