TL;DR: The key mechanisms involved in plant stress tolerance and the effectiveness of microbial inoculation for enhancing plant growth under stress conditions have been discussed at length in this review.

TL;DR: Twenty rhizobacterial strains containing 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase were isolated from the rhizosphere of salt-affected maize fields and were screened for their growth-promoting activities under axenic conditions at 1, 4, 8, and 12 dS x m-1 salinity levels, showing that the increase in salinity level decreased the growth of maize seedlings.

TL;DR: The results suggested that these rhizobacterial strains isolated from wheat rhizosphere taken from different salt affected areas could be employed for salinity tolerance in wheat; however, P. putida may have better prospects in stress alleviation/reduction.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the assay for ACC-deaminase activity could be an efficient approach to screen effective PGPR for increasing the growth and yield of wheat under salt-stressed conditions.

TL;DR: The results imply that inoculation with plant growth promoting rhizobacteria containing ACC-deaminase could be a useful approach for improving growth and yield of maize under salt-stressed conditions.
