TLDR
It is argued that the ability of plant growth-promoting bacteria that produce 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase to lower plant ethylene levels, often a result of various stresses, is a key component in the efficacious functioning of these bacteria.About:

TL;DR: The concept and role of the phytomicrobiome and the agricultural context underlying food security in the 21st century are introduced and mechanisms of plant growth promotion by PGPR are discussed, including signal exchange between plant roots and PGPR and how these relationships modulate plant abiotic stress responses via induced systemic resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria in Agricultural Sustainability-A Review.
TL;DR: There is a gap between the mode of action (mechanism) of the PGPR for plant growth and the role of thePGPR as biofertilizer—thus the importance of nano-encapsulation technology in improving the efficacy of PGPR is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial and Plant-Assisted Bioremediation of Heavy Metal Polluted Environments: A Review
TL;DR: The toxic effects of heavy metal pollution and the mechanisms used by microbes and plants for environmental remediation are discussed and the importance of modern biotechnological techniques and approaches in improving the ability of microbial enzymes to effectively degrade heavy metals at a faster rate is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of action of plant growth promoting bacteria
TL;DR: To realize the objective of worldwide sustainable agriculture, it is essential that the many mechanisms employed by PGPB first be thoroughly understood thereby allowing workers to fully harness the potentials of these microbes.

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.
