The world struggles with the dual problem of feeding a growing global population and ensuring environmental protection. Yet, current agricultural techniques cannot guarantee food security and environmental safety. Hence, there is a need to explore the transformational potential of sustainable agriculture as a preferred alternative. This book analyses the roles of beneficial microbes, which are often considered the unsung heroes of agriculture, in revolutionizing food production and reducing the adverse impact of agriculture on the environment. Readers are guided through the complex web of interactions between plants and microbes while also being introduced to a wide range of microorganisms essential to these interactions. Furthermore, the book unravels the intricate methods by which these microbial allies promote nutrient absorption, strengthen plant defenses against pathogens, prevent nutrient runoff and improve stress tolerance while lowering the dependency on synthetic chemical use. It also makes a compelling case for continued research and innovation in this field as we strive to harness the full potential of microbial allies to shape the future of agriculture.
Prof. Olubukola O. Babalola Pr.Sci.Nat. holds a PhD in Microbiology. She is a National Research Foundation rated established scientist. She had postdoctoral experiences from Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel and the University of the Western Cape, South Africa. Babalola is a trainer of trainees and many postgraduate students have graduated under her mentorship. She is the Vice President for OWSD, the Director of the Food Security and Safety Focus Area, and previous HOD at the North-West University, South Africa. Her research interest is in Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions. Babalola leads a research team of over a dozen scholars from different tribes and tongues. She is into a prolific career with research outputs. She enjoys international collaborations, research grants and many awards.
Dr. Ayansina Segun Ayangbenro is an extraordinary Senior lecturer at North-West University, South Africa. He is a recipient of TWAS/NRF African Renaissance Doctoral Scholarship and the NRF Postdoctoral Fellowship Award. His research interest lies at the intersection of microbiology, environmental science, and sustainable agricultural practices, which is essential in tackling environmental issues including pollution, biodiversity preservation, and climate change mitigation on crop production. Ayansina has authored and co-authored many peer-reviewed journal articles published in reputable national and international journals.

Dateiformat: PDFKopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
