Sarcouncil Journal of Applied Sciences Aims & Scope

Abstract: Roots are the main and important part of the plant that absorbs water and nutrients from the soil, to be transferred to the aerial parts of the plant to help the plant grow and continue. It is worth noting that there are organisms in the soil that support plant growth by increasing its efficiency in absorbing nutrients, therefore there is the need to study on plant interactions with soil microorganisms. However, caution should be taken when adding beneficial soil organisms as biological fertilizers or pesticides, even if its use brings many and many benefits, such as reducing the use of chemicals in various forms as fertilizer or biocidal, which helps in creating a clean and healthy environment for humans, animals, water and air, on the one hand, and on the other hand, it helps in increasing crop productivity, which helps in achieving food security. With the evolution of omic technologies, it became possible to effectively observe rhizosphere microbial community together with their effects on plant productivity, thus maintaining sustainable agriculture. This has created an incentive and an obsession for researchers to develop microbial species interacts positively with the plant to protect it and increase its production (Berruti et al., 2016).
