Mycorrhizosphere Interactions to Improve a Sustainable Production of Legumes

摘要: The sustainability and productivity of agroecosystems depends exquisitely on the functionality a framework plant–soil interactions where microbial populations, including both mutualistic symbionts saprophytic microorganisms, living at root–soil interfaces, rhizosphere, are involved. Among various beneficial consumable plant species, legumes form useful symbiotic relationships with two types soil microbiota: N2-fixing bacteria, often called rhizobia, arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. Also, legume rhizosphere inhabits other valuable microbes such as growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). These microorganisms interact intensely among themselves, roots, to develop multifunctional mycorrhizosphere, microcosm environment variable activities, appropriate for productivity. This chapter highlights (1) processes involved in establishment functioning (2) impact mycorrhizosphere activities production, (3) possibilities tailor an efficient biotechnological tool improve performance different production systems following rhizobial, PGPR, AM fungal inoculants.
