Beneficial microbes play crucial role in modern agriculture, serving as biopesticides, biostimulants/biofertilizers, and mitigating abiotic stress crops. Their multifaceted functions contribute significantly to crop health sustainability, aligning with the principles of regenerative agriculture by minimizing carbon footprints reducing dependence on agrichemical inputs. The concept 'microbial consortia', involving combination multiple fungal bacterial species or strains, has gained recognition for its potential advantages over single species/strains applications. This method aims employ a spectrum ecological functions, encouraging biological equilibrium within agricultural systems. Recent research highlights how microbial consortia can directly indirectly enhance plant health, through various mechanisms interactions their host plants. review presents examples demonstrating efficacy biopesticides biostimulants/biofertilizers.

Soil health and fertility issues are constantly addressed in the agricultural industry. Through continuous prolonged use of chemical heavy systems, most lands have been impacted, resulting plateaued or reduced productivity. As such, to invigorate industry, we would resort alternative practices that will restore soil fertility. Therefore, recent decades, studies directed towards taking a Magellan voyage rhizosphere region, identify diversity, density, microbial population structure soil, predict possible ways health. Microbes inhabit this region possess niche functions, such as stimulation promotion plant growth, disease suppression, management toxicity, cycling utilization nutrients. should be conducted microbes groups organisms assigned functions.

ABSTRACT Plant-beneficial microorganisms are gaining importance for sustainable plant production and phytosanitary practices. Yet there is a lack of computational approaches targeting bacterial traits associated with growth-promotion (PGP), which hinders the in-silico identification, comparison, selection phytostimulatory strains. To address this problem, we have developed new web resource PLaBAse (v1.01, http://plabase.informatik.uni-tuebingen.de/pb/plabase.php ), provides number services, including (i) database screening 5,565 plant-associated bacteria (PLaBA-db), (ii) tool predicting growth-promoting (PGPTs) single genomes (PGPT-Pred), (iii) prediction plant-association by marker gene identification (PIFAR-Pred). The latter was Martínez-García et al. now hosted at University Tuebingen. PGPT-Pred based on our PGPT ontology, literature- OMICs-curated, comprehensive, hierarchical collection ∼6,900 PGPTs that 6,965,955 protein sequences. study distribution across different environments, applied it to 70,540 strains seven environments (including plants), five spheres (organs), two bacteria-induced phenotypes. This analysis revealed plant-symbiotic generally larger genome size higher count PGPT-annotated encoding genes. Obviously, not all reported restricted -or only enriched in-plant-associated symbiotic bacteria. Some also occur in human- animal-associated bacteria, perhaps due transmission PGP (PGPBs) between or because some functions involved adaption processes various environments. Here provide an easy-to-use approach phyla isolation sites, using PLaBA-db, standardized annotation, PGPT-Pred. We believe will improve understanding about entire facilitate PGPB as bio-inoculants biosafety strategies, so help establish targeted bacteria-incorporated systems future.
