TL;DR: This study is the first to report that Azospirillum inoculation of potato microclones not only improves the quality of planting material produced in vitro but also significantly increases minituber yield through enhancing plant adaptive capacity in the field.

TL;DR: It is shown that most Azospirillum strains cannot utilize sucrose as the sole carbon source and that their use to inoculate in vitro-grown plants does not lead to bacterial growth in the culture medium.

TL;DR: The effects of inoculating the culture medium of potato microplants grown in vitro with Azospirillum brasilense Sp245 or Ochrobactrum cytisi IPA7.2 with rhizobacteria known to increase plant resistance to abiotic and other stresses were studied.

TL;DR: The taxonomic position of Ochrobactrum cytisi strain IPA7.2 was clarified and its tolerance for salinity, high temperature, and glyphosate pollution, and the strain’s potential to promote the growth of potato microplants was tested.

TL;DR: It is indicated that the lipopolysaccharide of the plant-growth-promoting associative bacterium A. brasilense Sp245 specifically enhances the morphogenetic activity of wheat somatic tissues, which increases the efficacy of culturing of genotypes with a relatively low morphogenic potential.
