Modern Soil Microbiology, Third Edition

Editat de Jan Dirk van Elsas, Jack T. Trevors, Alexandre Soares Rosado, Paolo Nannipieri
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 apr 2019

The living soil is crucial to photosynthesis, biogeochemical cycles, global food production, climate change, biodiversity, and plant and animal health. In the past decade, scientists have made significant advances in soil microbiology research. While the basic principles are now better understood, knowledge has been forthcoming on the best available technologies and methods applied to researching soil microorganisms, their diversity, interactions, biochemistry, survival, gene expression, and their roles in global climate change, plant disease suppression and growth stimulation, and biogeochemical cycles. This knowledge can be applied to better predict the transformation of pollutants in soil and the activities of microbes in the rhizosphere. It will also assist us in fostering crop production in an era with an increasing human population and intensification of agriculture.

Following the tradition of its predecessors, Modern Soil Microbiology, Third Edition, is an indispensable source that supports graduate/undergraduate teaching for soil and environmental microbiologists in academia, as well as in government and industrial laboratories. It is a comprehensive collection of chapters on various aspects of soil microbiology, useful for all professionals working with soils. Compiled by internationally renowned educators and research scholars, this textbook contains key tables, figures, and photographs, supported by thousands of references to illustrate the depth of knowledge in soil microbiology.

FEATURES

  • Fully updated and expanded to include new key chapters on historical developments, future applications, and soil viruses and proteins
  • Discusses molecular methods applied to soil microbiology, diverse soil microorganisms, and global climate change
  • Emphasizes the role of terrestrial microorganisms and cycles involved in climate change
  • Details the latest molecular methods applied to soil microbiology research
  • User-friendly for students, and containing numerous tables, figures, and illustrations to better understand the current knowledge in soil microbiology
