Introduction

This book explores the potential of diazotrophic plant growth-promoting microorganisms (DPGPMs) in supporting sustainable agriculture by naturally enhancing nitrogen availability for crops.

Plant-Microbe Interactions

It explains how plants interact with nitrogen-fixing microbes at genetic, biochemical, and physiological levels.

Microbial Consortia and Soil Health

The book also discusses the role of microbial consortia in enhancing soil and plant health, compares traditional fertilisers with integrated microbial approaches, and highlights the role of CRISPR in promoting nitrogen fixation.

Case Studies and Practical Benefits

It includes case studies, such as maize cultivation, showing practical benefits.

Target Audience

This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, agricultural professionals, and anyone interested in sustainable farming practices. It offers practical insights and scientific understanding for those working in crop science, soil health, biotechnology, and environmental sustainability.
