This volume of Soil Biology presents an overview of the current results in Sebacinales research with a focus on the potential of these fungi in crop improvement and stress tolerance. The authors demonstrate that Sebacinales are not only extremely versatile in their associations with roots, but are also almost universally present as symptomless endophytes. With this extraordinary diversity, Sebacinales with the key fungus Piriformospora indica might possess remarkable significance in natural ecosystems. Their biotechnological applications are expected to improve the quality of crops while maintaining ecologically and economically sustainable production systems.Soil Biology,2196-4831 ;33MicrobiologyAgriculturePlant biotechnologyFungiMycologySoil scienceMicrobiologyAgriculturePlant BiotechnologyFungiSoil ScienceMicrobiology.Agriculture.Plant biotechnology.Fungi.Mycology.Soil science.Microbiology.Agriculture.Plant Biotechnology.Fungi.Soil Science.579.5Varma Ajit285747Kost Gerhard1752374Oelmuller Ralf1752375MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910437835703321Piriformospora indica4187650UNINA
