A Model For the Lowering of Plant Ethylene Concentrations by Plant Growth-promoting Bacteria

TLDR
It is argued that the simplest explanation for the observed biological activity of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria relates to the relative amounts of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase and 1-amino-2-car boxylate oxidase in the system under consideration.

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria as biofertilizers

TL;DR: This review focuses on the known, the putative, and the speculative modes-of-action of PGPR, which include fixing N2, increasing the availability of nutrients in the rhizosphere, positively influencing root growth and morphology, and promoting other beneficial plant–microbe symbioses.

Phosphate solubilizing bacteria and their role in plant growth promotion

TL;DR: Genetic manipulation of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria to improve their ability to improve plant growth may include cloning genes involved in both mineral and organic phosphate solubilization, followed by their expression in selected rhizobacterial strains.

Use of Plant Growth-Promoting Bacteria for Biocontrol of Plant Diseases: Principles, Mechanisms of Action, and Future Prospects

TL;DR: As agricultural production intensified over the past few decades, producers became more and more dependent on agrochemicals as a relatively reliable method of crop production.

Structure and functions of the bacterial microbiota of plants

TL;DR: The plant microbiota emerges as a fundamental trait that includes mutualism enabled through diverse biochemical mechanisms, as revealed by studies on plant growth- Promoting and plant health-promoting bacteria.

Plant Growth-Promoting Bacteria: Mechanisms and Applications

TL;DR: It is envisioned that in the not too distant future, plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) will begin to replace the use of chemicals in agriculture, horticulture, silviculture, and environmental cleanup strategies.
