Phytobiomes: Current Insights and Future Vistas
Springer Verlag, Singapore
978-981-15-3153-8 (ISBN)
This book presents the updates about the plant associated microbiomesand their contemporary uses. It covers the knowledge gap between soil and plant helper microbiomes and their application in the agriculture and allied sectors. Modern insights of phytobiomes are explored in various chapters on a variety of interrelated aspects of the fascinating areas like plant microbial interaction, integrated pest management, soil fertility intensification, sustainable crop production, and disease management. Sections in the book describe how to plant beneficial microbiomes have been utilized for sustainable green farming, with the aim to resolve the global food problem without harming the soil and environment health. This book is intended for everyone who is involved in agriculture, microbial biotechnology, bioinformatics, and all disciplines related to microbial biotechnology. These include academic students, scientists, and researchers at universities, institutes, industries, and government organizations who want to understand microbial linkages in a shorter time. It contains basic information that will be help to the non-specialist readers to understand progressive research.
Dr. Manoj Kumar Solanki, Ph.D. (Microbiology) is working as a visiting scientist at the Volcani Center, Agricultural Research Organization, Israel. He was awarded a visiting scientist fellowship from the Guangxi Academy of Agriculture Sciences, China, and a senior research fellowship from the Indian Council of Agriculture Research (ICAR), India. He also worked as a Research Associate at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), India in a Department of Biotechnology funded project. He has engaged in various research activities on plant-microbe interactions, soil microbiology, plant disease management, and enzymology, and has published several book chapters and research papers in prominent international journals. Dr. Prem Lal Kashyap, Ph.D. (Plant Pathology) is working at the ICAR-Indian Institute of Wheat and Barley Research (IIWBR), India. His major research areas include wheat pathology, biocontrol, diagnostics, microbial nanotechnology and host–parasite interactions. He has published over 60 research papers in high impact factor journals along with several book chapters, technical bulletins and books. In recognition of his significant achievements in the field of crop protection, he has received several prestigious awards including the NAAS Young Scientist Award, Dr. Basant Ram Young Scientist Award, Prof. Abrar Mustafa Memorial Award, M.K. Patel Memorial Young Scientist Award, and a NAAS Associateship at the national level. Dr. (Mrs.) Baby Kumari MSc, Ph.D. (Biotechnology) has worked as a researcher (part of her Ph.D. work) at the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, India. She has engaged in various research activities on plant-microbe interactions, soil microbiology, plant disease management, and nanotechnology, and has published many research papers in prominent international journals. Her research interests include plant-microbiome interactions, especially in medicinal plants, as well as nanoparticle biosynthesis and its application in plant disease management, biosensors, and bioremediation.
