Microbiological Advancements for Higher Altitude Agro-Ecosystems & Sustainability

The book explores the challenges and opportunities associated with high-altitude agro-ecosystems and the factors that influence them. It discusses the various indigenous agricultural practices and approaches, as well as the microbiology of mountain & hill agro-ecosystems, providing a comprehensive overview of the various factors that control the microbiome at high altitudes.
The contributions examine microbiological advances, such as use of "omics" technologies for hill agriculture and environmental sustainability, and explore the use of nanotechnology for agricultural and environmental sustainability at higher altitudes. The book also describes various aspects of low-temperature microbiology in the context of high-altitude farming and environmental sustainability.

Defines the significant relationship between the different microbial communities in high-altitude agro-ecosystems

Discusses recent trends and advances in microbial technologies that can be explored for high- altitude farming

Provides easy-to-understand pictorial and graphical representations of the processes and relationships
