Molecular Aspects of Plant Beneficial Microbes in Agriculture explores their diverse interactions, including the pathogenic and symbiotic relationship which leads to either a decrease or increase in crop productivity. Focusing on these environmentally-friendly approaches, the book explores their potential in changing climatic conditions. It presents the exploration and regulation of beneficial microbes in offering sustainable and alternative solutions to the use of chemicals in agriculture. The beneficial microbes presented here are capable of contributing to nutrient balance, growth regulators, suppressing pathogens, orchestrating immune response and improving crop performance.

The book also offers insights into the advancements in DNA technology and bioinformatic approaches which have provided in-depth knowledge about the molecular arsenal involved in mineral uptake, nitrogen fixation, growth promotion and biocontrol attributes.

Dr. Vivek Sharma is currently an Assistant Professor at the University Centre for Research and Development at Chandigarh University, Mohali (PB). He has more than 12 years of research experience exploring molecular attributes of Trichoderma. His research also involves examining the molecular aspects of microbes beneficial to plants such as Streptomyces, and Bacillus. He has published several research papers in international journals, serves as an Academic Editor for PLOS ONE, the review editor for Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, an Associate Editor of Chemical and Biological Technologies in Agriculture, and is a member of the editorial board of Current Proteomics. He is also a recognized reviewer for journals such as the Journal of Advanced Research, Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, Environmental Research, the Journal of Proteomics, BMC Genomics, BMC Plant Biology, AMB Express, Molecular Biotechnology, MDPI Pathogens, Folia Microbiology, Physiological and Molecular Plant Pathology and Archives of Microbiology. Dr. Salwan is currently an Assistant Professor (Microbiology) at the College of Horticulture and Forestry (Dr. YS Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry), Neri, Hamirpur, Himachal Pradesh, India. Dr. Salwan’s research interests and contributions are on the diversity of psychrotrophic bacteria from the Western Himalayas and their utilization for industrial applications. She has also worked on the exploration of extremophiles for industrially relevant enzymes and plant beneficial microbes for agricultural benefits. She has published two books and numerous research papers in several international journals. Dr. Salwan serves as an Academic Editor for PLOS ONE and is also a recognized reviewer for several journals including MDPI Genes, MDPI Diversity, MDPI Foods, BMC Microbiology, Journal of Plant Growth Regulation, and Microbial Ecology. Dr. Laith Al-Ani is a lecturer at the Dept. of Plant protection –College of Agriculture – University of Baghdad. He has completed his Ph.D. in plant pathology at the School of Biological Sciences, University Sains Malaysia. He is an expert in plant pathology and management of plant diseases with the plant-fungal interaction. His research is focused on using alternative methods of synthetic pesticides. He has published many chapters and papers on biological control agents to control plant pathogens. He is having research experience of more than 17 years in using biological control against plant pathogens and pests and isolated several biological control agents such as PGPR, nonpathogenic Fusarium, Trichoderma, other fungi and entomopathogen such as Fusarium that also involved in different plant benefits.
