      abstract = {Sustainable increase in agricultural production while  keeping the environmental quality, agro-ecosystem function  and biodiversity is a real challenge in current  agricultural practices. Application of PGPR can help in  meeting the expected demand for increasing agricultural  productivity to feed the worlds booming population. Global  concern over the demerits of chemicals in agriculture has  diverted the attention of researchers towards sustainable  agriculture by utilizing the potential of Plant Growth  Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR). Use of PGPR as  biofertilizers, biopesticides, soil, and plant health  managers has gained considerable agricultural and  commercial significance. The book Plant Growth Promoting  Rhizobacteria (PGPR): Prospects for Sustainable Agriculture  has contributions in the form of book chapter from 25  eminent global researchers, that discusses about the PGPRs  and their role in growth promotion of various crop plants,  suppression of wide range of phytopathogens, their  formulation, effect of various factors on growth and  performance of PGPR, assessment of diversity of PGPR  through microsatellites and role of PGPR in mitigating  biotic and abiotic stress.This book will be helpful for  students, teachers, researchers, and entrepreneurs involved  in PGPR and allied fields. The book will be highly useful  to researchers, teachers, students, entrepreneurs, and  policymakers.},
