The increasing human population and the associated activities have negatively influenced the ecosystems and life on earth. The continuous addition of agrochemicals, heavy metals and industrial wastes/ effluents in the ecosystems have caused great harm, including loss of productivity, biodiversity, climate change and diseases in plants, animals and humans, resulting in increased marginal lands and endangered sustainability of life on earth. Hence, there is an urgent need to reverse the impact of dangerous pollutants through a holistic, sustainable and biotic approach. Bioremediation involves the utilization of biological systems, mainly plants (phytoremediation) or microorganisms or both in combination (rhizoremediation) for the removal or degradation of pollutants and revive the habitats in an eco-friendly manner. Recently, there have been many success stories related to bioremediation involving plants or plant-microbe interactions. These success stories are related to the removal of heavy metals, pesticides, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, explosives, radionuclides or reduction of biological oxygen demand, total dissolved solids, total suspended solids, oil spills in water bodies. Rhizoremediation has also been successfully used for reclamation of saline or marginal soils. With the range of pollutants and the total area (on earth) covered by these toxic chemicals, it is important that these eco-friendly technologies be utilized in a better way. The book throws light on the recent happenings, research and success stories related to bioremediation of polluted habitats through phytoremediation or rhizoremediation. The book also highlights some of the significantly important plant and microbial species involved in remediation, the physiology, biochemistry and the mechanisms of remediation by various plants and microbes, and suggestions for future improvement of bioremediation technology.

Über den Autor Naveen Kumar (Hrsg.) Arora

Prof Naveen Kumar Arora, Fellow of International Society of Environmental Botanists, Professor in Department of Environmental Science, Former Dean, School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, and President of Institutions Innovation Council, Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, India, is a renowned researcher in the field of Environmental Microbiology and Biotechnology. His specific area of research is plant-microbe-interactions and sustainable agriculture. He has more than 180 research articles published in international journals. He is editor of 58 books, published by Springer Nature an Elsevier. He is the Series Editor of book series "Microorganisms for Sustainability" published by Springer Nature and Editor of the journal "Plant Pathology" published by Wiley. He is the Editor in Chief of the journal "Environmental Sustainability" published by Springer Nature. He has received awards for excellence in research by various national and international organizations. He is President, Society for Conservation of Wildlife and is Secretary, Society for Environmental Sustainability. Dr. Jitendra Mishra is an Assistant Professor of Microbiology at Amity University Punjab, India. A globally recognized scientist, he ranked among the top 2% of microbiologists worldwide. He previously coordinated a DST-SEED-funded project (2020-2023) at Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, spearheading R&D in microbial technologies. With prior expertise as a DST Research Associate, he specializes in biocontrol agent development, including strain selection, carrier formulation, and quality control. Dr. Mishra's research focuses on microbial secondary metabolites, bioinoculants, and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), leveraging fluorescent pseudomonads for eco-friendly phytopathogen management in saline soils. An active academic, he mentors postgraduate students, holds a patent, and has published extensively in reputed journals. He has authored three books and serves as an editor for several journals. His interdisciplinary work bridges microbial innovation and sustainable agriculture, addressing global agricultural challenges through cutting-edge biotechnological solutions.
