Unlocking PGPR-Mediated Abiotic Stress Tolerance: What Lies BeneathFrontiers in Sustainable Food Systems - Tập 6
Ιfigeneia Mellidou, Katerina Karamanoli
In the forthcoming era of climate change and ecosystem degradation, fostering the use of beneficial microbiota in agroecosystems represents a major challenge toward sustainability. Some plant-associated bacteria, called Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR), may confer growth-promoting advantages to the plant host, through enhancing nutrient uptake, altering hormone homeostasis, and/...... hiện toàn bộ

Crop species and varietal diversity on farm have the potential to trigger multiple regulating and provisioning ecosystem services. The latter is commonly assessed through targeted studies covering a select number of geographies and crop species, precluding comparisons across crops and at scale. This study draws on a large dataset on the varietal release dynamics for 11 major food crops in ...... hiện toàn bộ
