Beskrivning

Microbial Biostimulants for Plant Growth and Abiotic Stress Amelioration, the latest release in the Biostimulants and Protective Biochemical Agents series, provides readers with insights into the major role of biostimulants in plant growth and development while under abiotic stress. The term biostimulants is broadly used to reference a group of diverse substances and microorganisms that stimulate life or that promote favorable plant responses. They stimulate natural processes to enhance/benefit nutrient uptake, nutrient efficiency, tolerance to abiotic stress, and crop quality.

Many biostimulants improve nutrition and they do so regardless of their own nutrient contents. Further, recently microbe-based biostimulants have emerged as important plant protectors under a range of adverse conditions.



  • Presents the potential for more environmentally sustainable interventions against abiotic stresses
  • Highlights the variety of applications for which biostimulants are proving effective
  • Includes coverage of commercialization and role in addressing Sustainability Development Goals

Dr. Chauhan is the recipients of several national and International awards. He is the recipient of ‘Postdoctoral Research fellowship from Brain Korea 21 project, Chungbuk National University, Cheongju, South Korea (Awarded in July 2009). He is also the recipient of Innovative Young Scientist Award from Asian PGPR society for sustainable agriculture, Hyderabad, India for contributions in the field of Agricultural Microbiology at National Workshop on “Advances in PGPR Research" organized by Institute of Agricultural Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi on October 7-8, 2014. Dr. Chauhan has worked extensively on Agricultural Microbiology, Stress Biology and Soil and Microbial Ecology. He has published several research and review paper(s) in the Journal of international repute and has edited books with renowned international publishers. Nikita Bisht is a postdoctoral fellow at the Microbial Technologies Division of CSIR-National Botanical Research Institute, Lucknow, India. She holds a Master’s degree in Microbiology from GBPUAT, Pantnagar, India, and has received her Ph.D. from CSIR-NBRI, Lucknow, India and AcSIR, Ghaziabad, India. Dr. Bisht has a remarkable academic journey that extends to achieving excellence in national-level examinations/fellowships including CSIR-JRF-NET, ASRB-NET, and ICMR. Her expertise lies in the area of plant-microbe interactions and nutrient deficiency where her contributions have significantly advanced our understanding of the intricate molecular mechanisms governing these interactions. She has published research articles in peer reviewed journals and authored various book chapters. Dr. Bisht is a lifetime member of the Association of Microbiologists of India. Her dedicated pursuits continue to shape the field of microbiology and plant sciences, enriching our knowledge and fostering advancements for a sustainable future. Renuka Agarwal has been a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Trivedi School of Biosciences, Ashoka University, since July 2025. Before then, she held a Postdoctoral Researcher role in the Department of Biology, Syracuse University and also completed postdoctoral research at CSIR-Lucknow. She was awarded a PhD by the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Mohali. Her areas of specialization include microbial ecology, soil metagenomics, and plant microbe interactions. She has published research articles in peer reviewed journals and also qualified national level exams to pursue her research career.
