Drought and salinity are major factors that hinder crop cultivation significantly impair agricultural productivity, particularly in (semi)arid regions. These two abiotic constraints cause deterioration soil structure reduced fertility hamper plant growth by limiting access to mineral elements water, thereby threatening global food security. What’s more, the excessive, long-term use of chemical fertilizers boost productivity can disrupt balance ecosystems, health. Faced with these challenges, sustainable exploitation natural resources, particular rhizospheric microorganisms, is an environmentally friendly solution. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi play important role as biofertilizers due their symbiotic relationship roots nearly 80% plants. They promote not only host plants but also resistance stresses. Among fungi, Glomus genus stands out for its predominance plants’ rhizosphere thanks richness high-performance species ecological adaptability. This review highlights importance within this soils, terrestrial ecosystems subject (semi-)arid climates. Molecular mechanisms underlying tolerance drought salt stress symbiosis explored.

Abstract As sessile organisms, plants are inevitably threatened by various abiotic stresses. Abiotic stresses seriously affect plant growth and development crop yield. Plants have evolved complex regulatory networks to resist that occur during their life cycle. The hormone abscisic acid (ABA) is accumulated under osmotic stress conditions such as drought, salt, others. ABA signaling pathway plays a key role in response stresses, which ABA‐responsive element binding factors (ABFs) play crucial the whole process. ABFs class of basic leucine zipper proteins (bZIPs) specifically recognize elements belong subfamily bZIP family. discoveries ABFs‐mediated tolerance multiple including salinity, cold, heat highlighted discussed this review. aim review further analyze mechanisms regulation mediated lay foundation for breeding superior stress‐resistant varieties.
