PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Beneficial root-associated microorganisms, including arbuscular mycorrhizal
fungi, nodule-inducing nitrogen-fixing rhizobia, and plant growth-promoting
bacteria / fungi, are key players for crop productivity in low-inputsystems.
Identification of environmental and genetic determinants controlling their
interactions with crops is paramount for the development of a more sustainable
agriculture, and this requires multi disciplinary research approaches. However,
the research field remains fragmented and beneficial microorganism interactions
with plant roots are often overlooked in agricultural management practices or in
breeding programs. ROOT-BENEFIT aims to bring together, specialists of these
different types of beneficial interactions working at different levels of study,
together with socio-economic actors to create a networkable to: i) sum up and
disseminate the current knowledge on agronomic, environmental and economic
criteria characterizing the services provided by beneficial root-associated
microorganisms, ii) perform meta-analyses with existing datasets, iii) identify
gaps in the current knowledge and define future research priorities, iv) propose
methodologies and strategies for implementing or improving crop interactions
with beneficial root-associated microorganisms in agriculture, v) propose
recommendations on microbial applications to inoculant producers, policy-makers
and end-user farmers. Overall, ROOT-BENEFIT will strengthen the European
research capacity and leadership on beneficial root-associated
microorganisms,and facilitate knowledge transfer to socio-economic actors and
inclusiveness towards European and Mediterranean countries.
