Beneficial Microbes for Sustainable Agriculture under Abiotic Stress: Funtional Traits and Regulation highlights the potential for microbe-mediated stress phytotolerance to be improved by presenting multiple scenarios of application and results. In most research and studies, abiotic stress is applied singularly to specific plants inoculated with a bioinoculum or a microbial consortium to isolate specific plant-microbe responses. However, in reality, plants are continually exposed to a multitude of different stresses simultaneously occurring. This book presents microbial functional traits and microbe-mediated plant responses under both specific or combined stress conditions. Collectively, it provides insights into microbial functional traits and microbe-mediated plant responses in a wide range of conditions, providing foundational understanding of their potential benefits, and inspiring further research. The book also centers on specific microbial strains and groups which have been shown to effectively promote stress tolerance, and which could be utilized to boost agricultural production under stress conditions. Their potential utilization in stress affected lands not just improves crop production but could also be in line with sustainable agriculture. With the advancement of tools such as omics related technologies, emerging information on microbial functional traits and regulations on microbe-mediated phytotolerance will also allow us to develop relevant biotechnologies harnessing potentials of plant-microbe interactions under stress conditions. The information in this volume will be of interest to those working toward these next steps.

About
Dr. Tongmin Sa?is a Professor of Agricultural Chemistry at Chungbuk National University South Korea and a Full Member of?the Korean Academy of Science & Technology (KAST). He has served as the President of The Korean Society of Soil Science & Fertilizer (KSSSF) Vice President of the International Scientific Center for Fertilizer (CIEC Asia) and the Dean of the College of Agriculture Life and Environmental Sciences Chungbuk National University. He has written 26 book and book chapters and published over 360 articles in prestigious journals. He obtained his doctoral degree major in Plant Physiology/Microbiology from the Department of Soil Science North Carolina State University. He collaborates with international scientists in studying the microbial community profiles associated with major food crops grown around the globe. This will enable the global scientific community to understand the effect of eco-geographical distribution of plant-microbiome and engineer efficient bioinoculants for better crop productivity.
