Abstract:In order to achieve a desirable ecological and sustainable agriculture a thorough understanding of the plant-soil mycobiome is imperative. Commercial industrial agriculture alters greenhouse gas emissions, promotes loss of plant and soil biodiversity, increases pollution by raising atmospheric CO 2 , and releases pesticides, thus affecting both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Diversified farming systems, including perennial cultivated pastures, are among worldwide strategies that aim to reduce terrestrial greenhouse gas emissions and deal with threats to global sustainability. Additionally, stimulation of soil microbes and appropriate soil management can influence soil interactions as well as the rates of organic matter decomposition and the release of gases. Agricultural soil microbial communities play a central role in ecosystem processes and are affected by biocontrol agents, biofertilizers, and exposure to pesticides, the extent to which is yet to be fully elucidated. Intercropping different plant species is beneficial, as this can increase carbon fixation by plants, transferring carbon to the soil, especially via mycorrhizas, thus modifying interplant interactions. This review focuses on agro-ecosystems, showing the latest advances in the plant-soil interface (the mycobiome) for an eco-efficient agricultural production.

“…Sci., 3(2): 202-208 (2018) is one of the factors responsible for the low productivity (Sarvade et al, 2014;Chopra et al, 2017). Chemical fertilizers though played an important role to meet out the nutritional demand of the crop but continuous use of chemical fertilizers is reported to have deleterious effects on soil heath due to their ill effects on physical, chemical and biological properties of soil (Sarkar et al, 1997;Adhikary, 2014;Kumar, 2016;Nayak et al, 2015). However, in the use of organic manures along with inorganic fertilizers not only improve physico-chemical and biological properties of soil but also provides all the nutrients in available form to crop plants, which enhance growth and yield of W. somnifera.…”

Withania somnifera (L.) is generally or locally named as ashwagandha, it is an important medicinal plant and generally used as a home remedy against numerous diseases in India as well as other parts of the world (Owasis et al., 2005). In Ayurveda, W. somnifera is widely claimed to have potent aphrodisiac, sedative, rejuvenative and life prolonging properties. It is mainly applied as energy boosting agent and known as Medharasayana, which means that which promotes 'learning and a good memory' and in geriatric problems (Williamson, 2002). The plant is traditionally used to promote youthful vigour, endurance, strength, and health, nurturing the time elements of the body and increasing the production of vital fluids, muscle fat, blood, lymph, semen and cells. It is seemed to be likely to the restorative characteristics of the roots of Ginseng to the roots of W. somnifera and named as Indian Ginseng (Singh and Kumar, 1998). It also helps counteract chronic fatigue, weakness, dehydration, bone weakness, loose teeth, thirst, impotency, premature ageing, emaciation, debility and muscle tension (Singh and Kumar, 1998; Williamson, 2002).

“…Najar et al, (2015) observed that different rates of vermicompost produced significant effect (P < 0.05) as compared to the control on growth parameters with maximum value recorded at 6 t/ha, followed by 4 t/ha and the least at 2 t/ha. Kumar, (2016) revealed that application of 50% RDF along with vermicompost @ 5 t/ha exhibited higher plant height and dry weight with in Brinjal. Zainub et al, (2016) conducted an experiment to evaluate the response of brinjal during 2014.…”
