This book explores how diazotrophic plant growth-promoting microorganisms (DPGPMs) can support sustainable agriculture. These beneficial microbes help plants grow by naturally fixing nitrogen from the air, reducing the need for chemical fertilizers and improving soil health.The chapters cover a wide range of topics. Early chapters explain the role of endophytic and free-living diazotrophs in crops like sugarcane and their molecular mechanisms for promoting plant growth. Several chapters focus on how these microbes can be used as biofertilizers and how they help plants cope with environmental stress. The book also discusses the use of nanotechnology to improve nitrogen use efficiency and the potential of microbial solutions to address climate change. Later chapters explore recent advances in nitrogen fixation, including its application in non-leguminous crops and the use of synthetic biology.This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, and professionals in agriculture, microbiology, and environmental sciences. It is also useful for policymakers and practitioners interested in eco-friendly farming practices and sustainable food production.

This book explores the potential of diazotrophic plant growth-promoting microorganisms (DPGPMs) in supporting sustainable agriculture by naturally enhancing nitrogen availability for crops. It explains how plants interact with nitrogen-fixing microbes at genetic, biochemical, and physiological levels. The book also discusses the role of microbial consortia in enhancing soil and plant health, compares traditional fertilisers with integrated microbial approaches, and highlights the role of CRISPR in promoting nitrogen fixation. It includes case studies, such as maize cultivation, showing practical benefits. This book is a valuable resource for students, researchers, agricultural professionals, and anyone interested in sustainable farming practices. It offers practical insights and scientific understanding for those working in crop science, soil health, biotechnology, and environmental sustainability.
