Teaming with Bacteria: The Organic Gardener's Guide to Endophytic Bacteria and the Rhizophagy Cycle Lowenfels Jeff
A must-read handbook for organic gardeners and small-scale growers.Thanks to research conducted over the last few decades, we know that most plants get a significant portion of their nutrients by attracting endophytic bacteria--bacteria that live inside a plant's cells. Interesting, you may think, but why does this matter? Through a complex process, plant cells harvest the nitrogen and other nutrients in a bacterium's cell wall and expel the bacterium's protoplasts back into the soil where they rebuild their cell walls, start feeding again, and repeat the cycle.
The bottom line is this: without endophytic bacteria, plants get fewer nutrients and cannot develop properly.Teaming with Bacteria not only explains the rhizophagy cycle; it shows you how to harness this amazing process to increase productivity and plant health. As it turns out, it matters a lot.
