Rhizosphere engineering and stress resilience in plants : concepts and applications /

""In the hidden realm beneath our feet, a complex network of interactions unfolds between plant roots and the surrounding soil". The rhizosphere is a zone of intense biological and chemical activity, which plays a critical role in shaping plant growth, nutrient uptake, and ecosystem f...
