Описание: Global yields of legumes have been relativelystagnant for the last five decades, despite the adoption of conventional andmolecular breeding approaches. The use of plant growth-promoting (PGP) bacteriafor improving agricultural production, soil and plant health has become one ofthe most attractive strategies for developing sustainable agriculture. Actinomycetes arebacteria that play an important role in PGP and plant protection, producesecondary metabolites of commercial interest, and their use is well documented inwheat, rice, beans, chickpeas and peas. In order to promote legumes, the general assembly ofthe UN recently declared 2016 the “International Year of Pulses.” In view ofthis development, this book illustrates how PGP actinomycetes can improve grainyield and soil fertility, improve control of insect pests and phytopathogens,and enhance host-plant resistance. It also addresses special topics of currentinterest, e.g. the role of PGP actinomycetes in the biofortification of legumeseeds and bioremediation of heavy metals.

The use of plant growth-promoting (PGP) bacteria for improving agricultural production, soil and plant health has become one of the most attractive strategies for developing sustainable agriculture. Actinomycetes are bacteria that play an important role in PGP and plant protection, produce secondary metabolites of commercial interest, and their use is well documented in wheat, rice, beans, chickpeas and peas. In order to promote legumes, the general assembly of the UN recently declared 2016 the “International Year of Pulses.” In view of this development, this book illustrates how PGP actinomycetes can improve grain yield and soil fertility, improve control of insect pests and phytopathogens, and enhance host-plant resistance.

Описание: Focuses on ways to improve crop productivity and sustainability through water and salinity management and defines approaches and technologies to assess and monitor soil water content and salinity. The test results of a new landscape soil moisture measuring tool (cosmic ray neutron sensor) for area-wide soil water measurements are also presented.

Understanding Climate Change Impacts on Crop Productivity and Water examines the greenhouse gas emissions and their warming effect, climate change projections, crop productivity and water. The book explores the most important greenhouse gases that influence the climate system, technical terms associated with climate projections, and the different mechanisms impacting crop productivity and water balance. Adaptive and mitigative strategies are proposed to cope with negative effects of climate change in particular domains. This book will help researchers interested in climate change impacts on the atmosphere, soil and plants.
Uncovers links between climate change and its impact on crop and water outputs
Integrates information on greenhouse gas cycles and mathematical equations into climate/crop models for analysis and seasonal prediction systems
Provides strategies for efficient resource management and sustainable crop production in future
Helps researchers interested in climate change impacts on the atmosphere, soil and plants

Описание: Countless other processes affecting the activity of soil micro flora and the inter- actions between microorganisms and plants may pose an equal danger to soil equilibrium, but their potential hazards are often overlooked because of an insufficient understanding of soil microbiology on the part of scientists.

Описание: The need for more food to sustain the growing human population has led to the conversion of forests to croplands. Excessive input of chemical fertilizers has exerted pressure on soil resulting in the deterioration of its quality and productive potential. The changing environmental conditions and climatic transformations have also adversely affected the properties of soil. Realizing the negative effects of chemical fertilizers on soil quality, various organic substances, waste materials and other substances were explored for their potential to be used as soil supplements. This book provides detailed information about various inorganic, organic, biological and other non-conventional soil supplements with emphasis to the role they play in maintaining soil fertility and increasing agricultural productivity. The soil supplements contribute a lot in restoring the productive potential of soil to a great extent. Each soil supplement possesses certain advantages and limitations in restoring the fertility of soil. Integrated fertilizer treatment proves beneficial in restoring soil fertility for various types of soils. The book provides latest information on the topic and describes advances in soil science.
