Soilmicrobiologydealswiththediversegroupoflivingorganismsthatresidesin

ecosystem services to keep the soil healthy and functional, and thereby support
plant growth. Agriculture and land-use changes including rapid urbanization
irrevocably alter the soil microflora – both structurally and functionally. While

demand for the burgeoning population of the earth, microorganisms provide a

branch of soil science focussing on the diverse group of soil inhabiting microbes
with their functions and interaction activities, which influences other living
organisms in various ways. Soil, the living epidermis of the planet with its diverse
resources, will continue to determine the human security. Intimate interaction of
plant, animal and microbial life, inhabiting the soil matrix, drives redox reactions
