From root zones to gut flora, a new map reveals how unseen microbes sustain our food supply - and what happens when they vanish.

Farmers usually use chemical fertilizers to grow their crops, but these can be expensive and may harm the environment. A more efficient and cheaper alternative is the use of specific microorganisms ca ...

These bacteria, known as plant-growth-promoting rhizosphere (PGPR) strains, can be used to formulate potent biofertilizers that can increase crop yields, says a team of researchers at the Bose ...
