Microbial Ecology in Sustainable Agroecosystems - Bog

Derived from a 2009 ESA symposium, this book brings together soil ecologists, microbial ecologists, and agroecologists working globally to demonstrate how research in soil ecology can contribute to the long-term sustainability of agricultural systems. This book provides an up-to-date synthesis of ecological theory and practice in agroecosystem theory and function. It integrates comparative and interdisciplinary research on soil ecology and microbial ecology theory into agricultural practice to improve agricultural productivity and sustainability. Many studies are referenced in order to help the reader understand concepts.
