Over the past few decades, due to excessive consumption of drugs in human and veterinary medicine, antimicrobial resistance (AR) microorganisms has risen considerably across world, this trend is predicted intensify. Many worrying research results indicate occurrence pools AR, both directly related activity environmental factors. The increase AR natural environment mainly associated with anthropogenic activity. dissemination significantly stimulated by operation municipal facilities, such as wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) or landfills, well biogas plants, agriculture farming practices, including animal production land application manure. These activities entail a risk public health spreading bacteria resistant products (ARB) antibiotic genes (ARGs). Furthermore, subinhibitory concentrations substances additionally predispose microbial consortia resistomes changes particular environments that are permeated these micropollutants. current state knowledge on fate ARGs, their complexity phenomenon relation inadequate.

Abstract Globally, substantial research into endophytic microbes is being conducted to increase agricultural and environmental sustainability. Endophytic such as bacteria, actinomycetes, fungi inhabit ubiquitously within the tissues of all plant species without causing any harm or disease. Endophytes form symbiotic relationships with diverse can regulate numerous host functions, including resistance abiotic biotic stresses, growth development, stimulating immune systems. Moreover, endophytes play a dominant role in nutrient cycling, biodegradation, bioremediation, are widely used many industries. have stronger predisposition for enhancing mineral metal solubility by cells through secretion organic acids low molecular weight metal-specific ligands (such siderophores) that alter soil pH boost binding activity. Finally, synthesize various bioactive compounds high competence promising candidates new drugs, antibiotics, medicines. Bioprospecting novel secondary metabolites has given momentum sustainable agriculture combating stresses. Biotechnological interventions aid played pivotal crop improvement mitigate stress conditions like drought, salinity, xenobiotic compounds, heavy metals. Identification putative genes from conferring tolerance diseases, apart those involved accumulation degradation contaminants, could open avenues development. Furthermore, detailed biochemical understanding endophyte entry colonization strategy would better help manipulating productivity under changing climatic conditions. Therefore, present review highlights current trends based on SCOPUS database, potential biotechnological microorganisms stresses influencing productivity, future opportunities improving tolerance, their contribution remediation hazardous contaminants.

Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are one of the major vectors microplastics (MPs) pollution for recipient water bodies. Therefore, recovery MPs from WWTPs is extremely important decreasing their accumulation and impact in aquatic systems. In this present study, electrocoagulation-electroflotation (EC/EF) membrane filtration processes were investigated removing wastewaters.
