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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant growth-promoting bacteria in the rhizo- and endosphere of plants: Their role, colonization, mechanisms involved and prospects for utilization

TL;DR: The individual steps of plant colonization are described and the known mechanisms responsible for rhizosphere and endophytic competence are surveyed to better predict how bacteria interact with plants and whether they are likely to establish themselves in the plant environment after field application as biofertilisers or biocontrol agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacterial endophytes: recent developments and applications

TL;DR: Endophytic bacteria have been found in virtually every plant studied, where they colonize the internal tissues of their host plant and can form a range of different relationships including symbiotic, mutualistic, commensalistic and trophobiotic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and endophytes accelerate phytoremediation of metalliferous soils

TL;DR: The role of plant growth promoting rhizo- and/or endophytic bacteria in accelerating phytoremediation derived benefits in extensive tables and elaborate schematic sketches is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential of siderophore-producing bacteria for improving heavy metal phytoextraction

TL;DR: The diversity and ecology of metal resistant SPB are highlighted and their potential role in phytoremediation of heavy metals is discussed and an increase in plant growth and metal uptake will further enhance the effectiveness of phytOREmediation processes.

16S ribosomal DNA amplification for phylogenetic study.

TL;DR: A set of oligonucleotide primers capable of initiating enzymatic amplification (polymerase chain reaction) on a phylogenetically and taxonomically wide range of bacteria is described in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

The enhancement of plant growth by free-living bacteria

TL;DR: The ways in which plant growth promoting rhizobacteria facilitate the growth of plants are considered and discussed and the possibility of improving plant growth promotion by specific genetic manipulation is critically examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

TL;DR: 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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bacterial biosynthesis of indole-3-acetic acid

TL;DR: The role of bacterial IAA in the stimulation of plant growth and phytopathogenesis is considered and several different IAA biosynthesis pathways are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Free-living bacterial inocula for enhancing crop productivity

TL;DR: Free-living bacteria may also influence the symbiosis between microorganisms and plants and thereby stimulate plant growth indirectly, which represents another potential commercial application for bacterial inocula within the next decade.
