Together, the varied contributions to this volume accentuate the need for an interdisciplinary approach to the rhizosphere involving agronomy, microbiology, plant pathology, physiology and soil science, as well as genetics, in order to optimize productivity while minimizing the potential for environmental damage by misuse of agrochemicals. The applications of such an approach, which range from the environmental impact of genetically-engineered organisms to reduced-input farming...
