Journal ArticleDOI
Contribution of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and/or bacteria to enhancing plant drought tolerance under natural soil conditions: Effectiveness of autochthonous or allochthonous strains
TL;DR: Microbial activities irrespective of the microbial origin seem to be coordinately functioning in the plant as an adaptive response to modulated water stress tolerance and minimizing the stress damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential activity of autochthonous bacteria in controlling drought stress in native Lavandula and Salvia plants species under drought conditions in natural arid soil.
TL;DR: The effectiveness of autochthonous plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria was studied in Lavandula dentata and Salvia officinalis growing in a natural arid Mediterranean soil under drought conditions and Lavadula demonstrated a greater benefit than Salvia to control drought stress when inoculated with B. thuringiensis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Native plant growth promoting bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis and mixed or individual mycorrhizal species improved drought tolerance and oxidative metabolism in Lavandula dentata plants.
TL;DR: Autochthonous AM fungal species and particularly their mixture with B. thuringiensis demonstrated their potential for protecting plants against drought and helping plants to thrive in semiarid ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autochthonous arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and Bacillus thuringiensis from a degraded Mediterranean area can be used to improve physiological traits and performance of a plant of agronomic interest under drought conditions

TL;DR: The use of autochthonous beneficial microorganisms from a degraded Mediterranean area is useful to protect not only native plants against drought, but also an agronomically important plant such as maize.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined use of beneficial soil microorganism and agrowaste residue to cope with plant water limitation under semiarid conditions
TL;DR: A relevant result is the greater effectiveness of the bacteria when inoculated in residue amended soil that promoted plant growth and hydric content and decreased most antioxidant activities to a greater extent than AMF inoculation.
