Microbial Inoculants in Sustainable Agricultural Productivity Vol. 2: Functional Applications /

The performance of crops in the soil largely depends on the physico-chemical components of the soil, which regulate the availability of nutrients as well as abiotic and biotic stresses. Microbes are the integral component of any agricultural soil, playing a vital role in regulating the bioavailabili...
