Molecular approaches to soil, rhizosphere and plant microorganism analysis /

This book comprises a comprehensive collection of molecular methods for studying microorganisms that occur in the soil or that are associated with plants, at the community, population, taxonomic and functional group levels. It contains 16 chapters encompassing most techniques that are currently avai...
