SCROLL DOWN TO ORDER THIS TITLE.

This unique collection of electron micrographs demonstrates the dynamic nature of the root surface in space and time as root cells differentiate, function, and age. The micrographs also illustrate the wide diversity of microorganisms in the rhizosphere resulting from the morphological and biochemical changes in the root-soil interface. Ideal for professionals and students in soil science, plant nutrition, and plant pathology.
