Plant-associated microorganisms play an important role in agricultural production. Although various studies have shown that single can exert beneficial effects on plants, it is increasingly evident when a microbial consortium—two or more interacting microorganisms—is involved, additive synergistic results be expected. This occurs, part, due to the fact multiple species perform variety of tasks ecosystem like rhizosphere. Therefore, mechanisms plant growth stimulation (i.e., enhanced nutrient...
Microbial mats are horizontally stratified microbial communities, exhibiting a structure defined by physiochemical gradients, which models diversity, physiological activities, and their dynamics as whole system. These ecosystems commonly associated with aquatic habitats, including hot springs, hypersaline ponds, intertidal coastal zones oligotrophic environments, all of them harbour phototrophic other environments such acidic springs or acid mine drainage non-photosynthetic mats. This review...
Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) are excellent biocontrol agents and stimulators of plant growth, nutrition, production. Therefore, these plant-associated considered an alternative to reduce or eliminate the use toxic agrochemicals. In this work, we review current state beneficial mechanisms (direct indirect), including production antibiotic compounds enzymes, facilitation resource acquisition, stimulating phytohormones/metabolites. Some aspects formulation technology bioinoculant...
Phytohormones are regulators of plant growth and development, which under different types stress can play a fundamental role in plant's adaptation survival. Some these phytohormones such as cytokinin, gibberellin, salicylic acid, auxin, ethylene also produced by growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB). In addition, numerous volatile organic compounds released PGPB and, like bacterial phytohormones, modulate physiology genetics. the present work we review basic functions during their interaction...
Soil salinity is a major problem in agriculture. However, crop growth and productivity can be improved by the inoculation of plants with beneficial bacteria that promote plant under stress conditions such as high salinity. Here, we evaluated 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase activity trehalose accumulation promoting bacterium Pseudomonas sp. UW4. Mutant strains (mutated at acdS, treS, or both) over-expressing strain (OxtreS) were constructed. The acdS mutant was ACC minus;...
