Summary:

This book, the second volume of Advances in Agricultural and Industrial Microbiology is the compilation of modern technologies with scientific advancement in promoting plant growth by rhizobacterial biostimulants, endophytic microbes, and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. The volume also highlights the critical roles of soil microbes in the biocontrol of plant pathogens/diseases, bioremediation of toxic agrochemicals, and nitrogen fixation. Agricultural sustainability and environmental management strongly depend on microbial communities. Management of soil fertility is the key aspect that is facilitated by soil microbes and their interactions.The book also has a section focuses on the in-silico approaches and techniques involved in agriculture which enhances the readers’ understandings of plant-pathogen interactions, prediction of pathogenicity, improving variety through CRISPER, and its role in the agroindustry. Additionally, the interventions of ICTs (Information and Communication Technologies) have benefited agricultural stakeholders, i.e., farmers to policymakers, in predicting and combating them. The covered topics of the microbial domain and computational tools have high implications for the researchers, students, faculty, and scientists working on these areas.
