Reviews

The authors of the book describe interactions that occur at the soil-root interface, and provide a comprehensive and complex overview of the recent investigations. This edition explains the multidisciplinary nature of the rhizosphere, concerning soil science, agronomy, plant nutrition and physiology, microbiology and biochemistry. Information about rhizosphere biochemistry and molecular biology is reviewed by 34 contributors from 9 countries. The authors belong to leader scientists who are solving processes that take place in the rhizosphere. ... The book is intended for advanced students and researchers in agricultural, biological and environmental sciences interested in widening knowledge about rhizosphere, provide the most current information and we hope that it stimulate further interest on this topic. -E. Skrzypek and I. Czyczylo-Mysza All chapters of this nicely printed and bound book are arranged in a similar form of concise review articles with many figures and abundant list of references. The book will be undoubtedly of continuous interest to plant scientists, soil biologists and practicing plant ecologists as an invaluable source of basic information. - J. Gloser, New Rapd Marker for Virus Resistance The main strength of this second edition is that it is on the topic of rhizosphere; despite the many research questions associated with this topic, there are few competing books and it is still an emerging field. Because the field is growing, I suspect this text will have a wide readership. - Michelle Watt, in Annals of Botany, September 2009, Vol. 104, No. 4
