This Collection focuses on pioneering research in the area of plant-microbe interactions, emphasizing their role in promoting good health and well-being, aligning with SDG 3 objectives. We invite contributions that explore novel mechanisms through which beneficial microbes enhance plant health, bolster crop resilience, and mitigate environmental stressors. Studies on microbial degradation of toxins, biocontrol agents, and microbial consortia fostering sustainable agriculture are particularly welcome. This Collection aims to bridge the gap between applied life sciences and health, showcasing how advances in understanding plant-microbe dynamics can lead to innovative solutions for improving agricultural productivity and human health. We encourage submissions that incorporate multidisciplinary approaches, including genomics, and biotechnological innovations, to offer comprehensive insights into the potential of plant-microbe interactions in achieving sustainable development goals. By highlighting cutting-edge research and fostering collaboration among scientists, this Collection seeks to contribute to the global effort of enhancing health and well-being through sustainable agricultural practices.
This Collection supports and amplifies research related to: SDG 3
