\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBiocontrol Agents for Improved Agriculture\u003c/i\u003e, a volume in the \u003ci\u003ePlant and Soil Microbiome\u003c/i\u003e series, presents both an advanced and current description of the important role of plant and soil microbiome in plant disease management. Including the latest biotechnological interventions for harnessing plant and soil microbiome and their potential in controlling plant pathogen/ disease, as well as the commercialization of biocontrol products and exploration of microbial derived bioactive compounds, this book provides an important reference on the challenges of biocontrol products. Sections explore the bacterial and fungal species successfully applied as plant and soil inoculant for the effective management of plant diseases.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs these microbial biocontrol agents not only suppress the plant disease, but also enhance the growth or agricultural production in sustainable ways, the book focuses on the molecular aspect of plant- pathogen interactions and their biocontrol strategies via the use of plant and soil microbiome. This book is an important reference for those seeking sustainable, safe options for protecting against microbial agricultural loss and environmental damage.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePresents emerging microbial biocontrol strategies for addressing plant pathogens\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eCovers production and commercialization of biocontrol products\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eIncludes accessible, informative illustrations of current trends in microbial biotechnology\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e
