The book emphasizes role of functional microbes in soil to improve fertility and plant health in agro-ecosystem. In this compendium main emphasis is on occurrence and distribution of microbial communities In situ active microbial quorum in rhizosphere metratranscripto... Lees meer.

Researchers now recognize that above- and belowground communities are indirectly linked to one another often by plant-mediated mechanisms. To date however there has been no single multi-authored edited volume on the subject. This book remedies that gap and offers st... Lees meer.

Forest soils form the foundation that underpins the existence of all forests. This book encapsulates soil ecology and functioning in northern forests focusing on the effects of human activity and climate change. The authors introduce the fundamental principles necessar... Lees meer.

As atmospheric CO 2 increases there will almost certainly be alterations in soil carbon fluxes. While there has been increasing recognition of the importance of soil-mediated responses to global climate change the nature and magnitude of these responses are not well un... Lees meer.

Soil is one of the species rich habitats in terrestrial ecosystem. This complex and heterogeneous belowground environment provides numerous niches to soil fauna concerning microhabitats and microclimatic properties. It has been reported that of the total number of desc... Lees meer.
