Bioremediation of Salt Affected Soils: An Indian Perspective
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-319-83897-7 (ISBN)
The chapters in this book highlight the significant environmental and social impacts of different ameliorative techniques used to manage salt affected soils. Readers will discover new knowledge on the distribution, reactions, changes in bio-chemical properties and microbial ecology of salt affected soils through case studies exploring Indian soils. The contributions presented by experts shed new light on techniques such as the restoration of degraded lands by growing halophyte plant species, diversification of crops and introduction of microbes for remediation of salt infested soils, and the use of fluorescent pseudomonads for enhancing crop yields.
Dr. Sanjay Arora and Dr. Atul K. Singh are Senior Scientists at the Indian Council of Agricultural Research - Central Soil Salinity Research Institute and Dr. Y.P. Singh is a Principal Scientist.
