Bio-organic Amendments for Heavy Metal Remediation: Water, Soil and Plant Approaches and Technologies focuses on these core continuum media to explore remediation options using microbial, organic, and combined approaches. This volume in the Plant Biology, Sustainability and Climate Change series offers a comprehensive view of techniques and approaches for addressing contamination by heavy metals. It provides a comprehensive view of the challenge, with a focus on the bioremediation of heavy metals contamination using ecotechnological approaches for protecting the soil, water, and plant continuum.As anthropogenic activities increasingly negatively impact natural resources, there has been significant disturbance of the water, soil, and plant continuum due to the accumulation of heavy metals. The bioaccumulation of heavy metals in the food chain could pose life-threatening effects on plants as well as humans, and there is need to find effective and sustainable remediation options. The application of bio-organic amendments could serve as a sustainable solution to this problem.Highlights remediation techniques/approaches for heavy metals under water, soil and plant continuumsPresents case-studies for real-world insights as well as current practicesIncludes regulatory aspects for ensuring safe implementation

Advancing Sustainable Agriculture Through Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi provides a comprehensive view of AMF-focused approaches that support biodiversity, ecosystem services, and soil health. The book addresses the topic from the basis of symbiosis to the latest research and future directions of AMF use in agriculture. It provides a thorough overview of the role that AM fungi play in promoting agricultural sustainability and synthesizes current knowledge on the biology, ecology, and applications of AM fungi in sustainable agriculture, highlighting best practices for promoting AM fungi in agricultural ecosystems, such as crop selection, soil management, and fertilizer use. In addition, the book identifies research gaps and priorities for the advancement of the understanding of AM fungi in sustainable agriculture. Among the major issues confronting agriculture are soil erosion, water shortages, climate change, and dwindling biodiversity. In response to these issues, the need for sustainable farming methods that support ecosystem services, biodiversity, and soil health is rising. As the soil microbiome is largely composed of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, which are essential for preserving soil health and encouraging plant development, this book is a welcomed resource.Presents the latest developments in the field of AM fungiIncludes both soil and crop-focused perspectivesProvides insights on the impacts of policy and practice on environmental sustainability and sustainable agriculture
