Book Description:

Here is a unique guide to the production of inoculants for crop plants, an area of biotechnology that is increasingly relevant in the fight against diseases that decrease yield and impoverish soil. The book provides information on the importance of Rhizobium as an inoculant, the use of blue-green algae and Azolla in rice culture, the use of of engineered and genetically distinct inocula on plants, as well as a look ahead to possible future developments in the field.
