Session: Linking Soil Macrofaunal and Microbial Communities with Crop Dynamics Including Diseases (ASA, CSSA and SSSA International Annual Meetings (2015))

371 Linking Soil Macrofaunal and Microbial Communities with Crop Dynamics Including Diseases

Oral Session

SSSA Division: Soil Biology & Biochemistry

This session will discuss research on rhizospheric organisms (nematodes, insects, microbes) in the context of plant interactions including disease, systemic induced crop resistance and soil microbial suppression and/or interactions with plant pathogens, pests and beneficial microbial taxa that have soil-based life stages.
