It provides new insights into our understanding of the mechanisms of AMF-mediated plant growth regulation and stress tolerance covering the most recent biochemical, physiological, molecular, environmental, and ecological studies. Focusing on AMF-induced physiological and molecular mechanisms of enhanced tolerance to stress, environmental stress is discussed in several dedicated chapters. The book provides not only updated information with new insights and perspectives but also several new topics, such as a comprehensive discussion on biotic stressors, AMF interaction with other microorganisms, non-host plant species, plant secondary metabolism, signaling events in plant-AMF symbiosis, AMF-mediated nutrient acquisition and subsequent stress tolerance. The book also discusses the potential implications of AMF for sustainable crop production in the context of climate change. The book can be a useful reference book for academics and scientists involved in related research, such as academics in agronomy and plant sciences, scientists involved in beneficial fungi research, chemists, industrialists, and employees involved in the production and marketing of biofertilizers, master and doctoral degree students of agronomy, horticulture, and plant protection, consultants working on the production of crops in marginal environments as well as environmental scientists working for assisted phytoremediation programs. It would also be suitable for agronomy, ecology, and plant science-related courses, such as plant stress physiology, plant growth-promoting microbes, and plant pathology to teach undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate students at colleges and universities. 606 $aFungi 606 $aMycology 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aAgronomy 606 $aBotany 606 $aPlant physiology 606 $aFungi 606 $aAgronomy 606 $aPlant Science 606 $aPlant Physiology 615 0$aFungi. 615 0$aMycology. 615 0$aMicrobiology. 615 0$aAgronomy. 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aPlant physiology. 615 14$aFungi. 615 24$aAgronomy. 615 24$aPlant Science. 615 24$aPlant Physiology. 676 $a579.517852 700 $aAhammed$b Golam Jalal$01713453 702 $aHajiboland$b Roghieh 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bNZ-WeVUL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910800118603321 996 $aArbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi and Higher Plants$94132388 997 $aUNINA
