Microbes Enhance Climate-Ready Crops for Sustainable Agriculture
Original language description
Climate change poses multifaceted challenges to global agriculture, impacting abiotic and biotic factors that influence crop productivity and food security. Rising temperatures exacerbate abiotic stresses and increase the prevalence of plant diseases and pest infestations, reducing crop yields. Domestication and breeding efforts of crops led to higher productivity but resulted in losing the ability to cope with climate change, a trait retained by wild-type plants. Wild genotypes with intact microbiomes, by integrating insights from studies on plant-microbe interactions, the paper explores the potential of beneficial microbiomes in enhancing crop resilience to climate change-induced stress. In this chapter, we elucidate the role of improving microbiome and plant resilience to climate-driven stressors. Also, technology-driven strategies for enhancing microbiomeresponsive crops are crucial for sustaining agricultural productivity amidsta changing climate. Furthermore, there is an urgent need for stress-tolerant crops and sustainable practices to counter climate change's impact on food production. It advocates integrating microbiome-based approaches into agriculture for food security in a changing climate.
