Plant Microbiomes and Its Beneficial Multifunctional Plant Growth Promoting Attributes-Juniper Publishers
Juniper Publishers- Open Access Journal of Environmental Sciences & Natural Resources Plant Microbiomes and Its Beneficial Multifunctional Plant Growth Promoting Attributes Authored by Ajar Nath Yadav Abstract Plant microbiome (Epiphytic, endophytic and rhizospheric) plays important role in plant growth, development, and soil health. Plant and rhizospheric soil are valuable natural resource harbouring hotspots of microbes, and it plays critical roles in the maintenance of global nutrient balance and ecosystem function. The diverse group of microbes is key components of soil-plant systems, where they are engaged in an intense network of interactions in the rhizosphere/phyllospheric/endophytic. The microbes with plant growth promoting (PGP) attributes have emerged as an important and promising tool for sustainable agriculture. PGP microbes promote plant growth and development directly or indirectly, either by releasing plant growth regulators/phytohormones;...
