SPRINGER Practical Handbook On Agricultural Microbiology (Hb 2022) by AMARESAN N.
This volume details techniques involved in the study of beneficial microbes in agricultural microbiology towards enhancing global agricultural productivity. Chapters cover a wide range of basic and advanced techniques associated with research on isolation of agriculturally important microbes, identification, biological nitrogen fixation, microbe mediated plant nutrient use efficiency, biological control of plant diseases and pests. Authoritative and cutting-edge, Practical Handbook on Agricultural Microbiology aims to be a useful practical guide to researches to help further their study in this field.
