Seed associated bacterial and fungal endophytes: Diversity, life cycle, transmission, and application potential

TL;DR: A review of the latest progress made in the research of the phyllosphere in recent years can be found in this paper, where the authors discuss the importance of the Phyllosphere microorganisms in plant growth processes, the responses of PHY-microorganisms to plant metabolites, etc.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors provide an overview of the characteristics and detection methods of seed-borne fungi, with a special focus on their potential effects on gene bank seed conservation and procedures to reduce the harmful effects of fungi in gene banks.

TL;DR: The need to unravel microbial strategies for yield enhancement and pathogen suppressiveness have become imperative in agricultural biotechnology and this review focuses on the endophytic microbiome, mechanisms, factors influencing endophyte recruitment, and strategies for possible exploration as bioinoculants.

TL;DR: In this paper , a review of soybean endophytic bacteria and their potential use in sustainable agriculture is presented, where the use of molecular techniques in unraveling the functions of soybeans is explored.

TL;DR: As agricultural production intensified over the past few decades, producers became more and more dependent on agrochemicals as a relatively reliable method of crop production.

TL;DR: The progress to date in using the rhizosphere bacteria in a variety of applications related to agricultural improvement along with their mechanism of action with special reference to plant growth-promoting traits are summarized and discussed in this review.

TL;DR: Historically, endophytic bacteria have been thought to be weakly virulent plant pathogens but have recently been discovered to have several beneficial effects on host plants, such as plant growth promotion and increased resistance against plant pathogens and parasites.

TL;DR: The individual steps of plant colonization are described and the known mechanisms responsible for rhizosphere and endophytic competence are surveyed to better predict how bacteria interact with plants and whether they are likely to establish themselves in the plant environment after field application as biofertilisers or biocontrol agents.
