The Definitive Handbook of Azospirillum: 100 Years of Research and Application Around the World
暫譯: 阿佐斯比利姆的權威手冊：全球100年的研究與應用

Fabricio Cassán, PhD, is a microbiologist and Principal Researcher at INIAB-CONICET and Associate Professor at UNRC. With nearly 30 years of expertise on Azospirillum and other plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, he has authored over 100 scientific contributions and led several international collaborations. His research bridges both fundamental and applied studies, advancing the use of Azospirillum in sustainable agriculture.

Luz de-Bashan Ph.D, is the Director of the Bashan Institute of Science in Alabama, and an Affiliate Professor in the Department of Entomology and Plant Pathology at Auburn University. Her research focuses on the interactions between Azospirillum and microalgae for biotechnological applications, the restoration of degraded soils with plant growth-promoting bacteria and native plants, and the development of bacterial inoculants.

Florence Wisniewski-Dyé is professor of microbial ecology at University of Lyon 1, France. With 25 years of expertise on plant growth-promoting bacteria, she was one of the pioneers in conducting comparative and functional genomic studies on Azospirillum; she contributed to reveal the high genomic plasticity of this genus, a trait that was critical for adaptation and interaction with host plants.

Guillermo Maroniche holds a Ph.D. in Biological Sciences and is currently an Independent Researcher of CONICET at FCA-UNMdP, Balcarce, Argentina. His research focuses on the mechanisms regulating the interspecific interaction between members of the plant microbiome, such as Azospirillum and Pseudomonas, and their host, aiming in the long term at improving the efficacy of inoculants based on synthetic microbial communities.

Fabricio Cassán 博士是微生物學家，擔任 INIAB-CONICET 的首席研究員及 UNRC 的副教授。他在 Azospirillum 及其他促進植物生長的根圍細菌方面擁有近 30 年的專業經驗，發表了超過 100 篇科學貢獻並領導多項國際合作。他的研究涵蓋基礎與應用研究，推進了 Azospirillum 在可持續農業中的應用。

Luz de-Bashan 博士是阿拉巴馬州 Bashan 科學研究所的所長，並且是奧本大學昆蟲學與植物病理學系的附屬教授。她的研究專注於 Azospirillum 與微藻之間的相互作用以進行生物技術應用、利用促進植物生長的細菌和本地植物修復退化土壤，以及開發細菌接種劑。

Florence Wisniewski-Dyé 是法國里昂大學 1 的微生物生態學教授。她在促進植物生長的細菌方面擁有 25 年的專業經驗，是進行 Azospirillum 比較和功能基因組研究的先驅之一；她的研究有助於揭示該屬的高基因組可塑性，這一特徵對於適應和與宿主植物的相互作用至關重要。

Guillermo Maroniche 擁有生物科學博士學位，目前是阿根廷 Balcarce 的 FCA-UNMdP 的 CONICET 獨立研究員。他的研究專注於調節植物微生物組成員之間的種間相互作用的機制，例如 Azospirillum 和 Pseudomonas 及其宿主，長期目標是提高基於合成微生物群落的接種劑的有效性。
