Plants exist in close association with uncountable numbers of microorganisms around, on, and within them. Some these endophytically colonize plant roots. The colonization roots by certain symbiotic strains plant-associated bacteria fungi results plants performing better than whose are colonized only the wild populations microbes. We consider here crop inhabited introduced organisms, referring to them as Enhanced Plant Holobionts (EPHs). EPHs frequently exhibit resistance specific diseases pests (biotic stresses); abiotic stresses such drought, cold, salinity, flooding; enhanced nutrient acquisition use efficiency; increased photosynthetic capability; ability maintain efficient internal cellular functioning. microbes described generate effects part through their production Symbiont-Associated Molecular Patterns (SAMPs) that interact receptors cell membranes. Such interaction transduction systemic signals cause plant-wide changes plants’ gene expression physiology. EPH arise not from plant-microbe interactions, but also microbe-microbe interactions like competition, mycoparasitism, antibiotic production. When root shoot growth a consequence endophytes, this increases yield plants. An additional benefit growing larger systems having greater capability is sequestration atmospheric CO 2 . This transferred where sequestered C, exudation or decomposition, becomes total soil carbon, which reduces global warming potential atmosphere. Forming requires selection introduction appropriate microorganisms, performance affected delivery management practices.

The application of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) in the field has been hampered by a number gaps knowledge mechanisms that improve growth, health, and production. These include (i) ability PGPR to colonize rhizosphere plants (ii) bacterial strains thrive under different environmental conditions. In this review, strategies host are summarized advantages having highly competitive discussed. Some exhibited recognition chemical signals nutrients from root exudates, antioxidant activities, biofilm production, motility, as well efficient evasion suppression immune system. Moreover, many contain secretion systems produce antimicrobial compounds, such antibiotics, volatile organic lytic enzymes enable them restrict growth potentially phytopathogenic microorganisms.

Summary The plant endosphere is colonized by complex microbial communities and microorganisms, which colonize the interior at least part of their lifetime are termed endophytes. Their functions range from mutualism to pathogenicity. All organs tissues generally bacterial endophytes diversity composition depend on plant, organ its physiological conditions, growth stage as well environment. Plant‐associated in particular endophytes, have lately received high attention, because increasing awareness importance host‐associated microbiota for functioning performance host.
