The Rhizosphere is the first ecologically-focused book that explicitly establishes the links from extraordinarily small-scale processes in the rhizosphere to larger-scale belowground patterns and processes. This book includes chapters that emphasize the effects of rhizosphere biology on long-term soil development, agro-ecosystem management and responses of ecosRhizosphereSoil ecologyRhizosphere.Soil ecology.575.54577.5/7 22577.57Cardon Zoe G1528705Whitbeck Julie Lynn1528706MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784542003321The rhizosphere3772540UNINA
