The book "Agriculturally Important Microorganisms: Mechanisms of Action and Modes of Application for Sustainable Agriculture" explores the potential of microorganisms in sustainable agriculture. It highlights the importance of nitrogen fixation, nutrient solubilization, and tolerance to various environmental conditions. Additionally, it introduces the use of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) as a promising approach to enhance crop productivity. PGPRs inhabit the rhizospheric region of the root and provide various benefits, including phosphate solubilization, potassium solubilization, zinc production, siderophore production, IAA production, hydrogencyanide production, and ammonia fixation. These microbes are not only studied as biofertilizers or nutrient fortifiers but also as potential agents to reduce the application of chemical fertilizers and other agrochemicals. The book also discusses the use and application of nano-biofertilizers for sustainable agriculture. It is important to note that T&F does not sell or distribute the hardback version of this book in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. This title is co-published with NIPA.
