Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

Nanomaterials-Microbial Interaction for Soil Health, Plant Growth and Performance highlights the importance of understanding the interactions between nanoparticles and the environment, particularly in the context of plant health and soil ecosystems. It emphasizes the potential benefits of using nanomaterials in plant production for sustainable agriculture, while also acknowledging the risks associated with their release into the environment. The unique properties of nanoparticles make them valuable for various applications, including enhancing plant growth and productivity. However, their potential impact on soil chemistry, microbial communities, and plant health must be carefully studied to ensure their safe and effective use. Researchers and students in plant science, agricultural science, nanobiotechnology, microbiology, biotechnology, and nano-engineering can benefit from exploring the relationships between nanomaterials and microbial interactions in soil health and plant performance. This interdisciplinary approach can provide valuable insights into the opportunities and challenges associated with integrating nanotechnology into agriculture and environmental management.
