Plant Mycobiome in Sustainable Agriculture

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Plant Mycobiome

Abstract

It is widely known that interactions between plants and their inhabiting fungi are essential for sustainable and ecological agriculture. Plant mycobiota provide a number of beneficial effects to their host plants, increasing plant growth and protecting against harmful pathogens and abiotic environmental stresses. However, due to the lack of appropriate technical, bioinformatics, and molecular tools, the extent to which plant mycobiota interact within the overall plant microbiota remains largely undiscovered. Furthermore, our limited knowledge and research experience have restricted our practises for appropriate management of plant mycobiota. Nevertheless, recent advances in fungal biology and their interactions with plants have allowed us to take further steps toward deciphering this area of research. This chapter focuses on recent advances at the plant-soil interface, i.e., the mycobiome, for eco-efficient agricultural production.
