Bacillus strains have long been recognized for their beneficial interactions with plants, enhancing growth, nutrient uptake, and stress resistance. Understanding molecular mechanisms plant-microbe is crucial harnessing potential in sustainable agriculture. Here we used ten from the 5 species namely velezensis, subtilis, atrophaeus, altitudinis amylofaciens, which are previously reported PGPR activity. A comparative analysis of these was performed to determine evolutionary relationships, revealed that velezensis amyloliquefaciens closely related based on underlying genetic proteomic similarities. strain LZP02 most distantly all other selected strains.

The escalating global food demand driven by a gradually expanding human population necessitates strategies to improve agricultural productivity favorably and mitigate crop yield loss caused various stressors (biotic abiotic). Biotic stresses are phytopathogens, pests, nematodes, along with abiotic like salt, heat, drought, heavy metals, which pose serious risks security productivity. Presently, the traditional methods relying on synthetic chemicals have led ecological damage through unintended impacts non-target organisms emergence of microbes that resistant them. Therefore, addressing these challenges is essential for economic, environmental, public health concerns. present review supports sustainable alternatives, emphasizing possible application fungal endophytes as innovative eco-friendly tools in plant stress management. Fungal demonstrate capabilities managing plants against biotic via direct or indirect enhancement plants’ innate immunity. Moreover, they contribute elevated photosynthesis rates, stimulate growth, facilitate nutrient mineralization, produce bioactive compounds, hormones, enzymes, ultimately improving overall resistance. In conclusion, harnessing potentiality represents promising approach toward sustainability practices, offering effective alternative solutions reduce reliance chemical treatments address posed stresses.

Sustainable food security and safety are major concerns on a global scale, especially in developed nations. Adverse agroclimatic conditions affect the largest agricultural-producing areas, which reduces production of crops. Achieving sustainable is challenging because several factors, such as soil flooding/waterlogging, ultraviolet (UV) rays, acidic/sodic soil, hazardous ions, low high temperatures, nutritional imbalances. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) widely employed in-vitro they recognized more environmentally sustainably friendly approach to increasing crop yield contaminated fertile soil. Conversely, use nanoparticles (NPs) an amendment has recently been proposed economical way enhance texture improving agricultural yields. Nowadays, various research experiments have combined or individually applied with PGPR NPs for balancing elements response control adverse situations, expectation that both additives might perform well together. According findings, interactive applications significantly increase yields than alone. The present review summarized functional mechanistic basis role NPs.
