Introduction
Many agroecologists have said that in order to feed an ecosystem you need to feed the soil. Under this logic, innovations with microorganisms, something already present in the soil, can aid future research towards more sustainable, less extractive, agriculture. Soil microbes serve a variety of functions including pest and disease control, increasing both plant growth and quality, and biodegradation of organic matter and other pollutants [1]. In addition to the number of activities that promote-plant health, microbes are also directly beneficial to plant health [2]. Forming symbiotic relationships with plants, rhizobia enables plants to obtain oxygen while phosphate-stabilizing bacteria enable plants to obtain phosphate [2]. Microbes not only help ensure the healthy growth of plants, but they are also useful for regenerating tainted soils. Microorganisms are metabolic capabilities that can serve a useful bioremediation tool for soil contaminated with heavy metal or organic pollutants [1].
