Improving crop drought resistance with plant growth regulators and rhizobacteria: Mechanisms, applications, and perspectives

Hui Zhang et al.

Summary: Drought is a significant abiotic stress that leads to crop yield loss, and enhancing crop yield under drought stress is a major objective in crop breeding. Recent studies have explored new strategies such as low-cost PGR treatment and microbe-based plant biotechnology to effectively improve crop drought tolerance and maintain yield under drought stress. However, our understanding of the mechanisms by which PGRs regulate plant drought resistance and the interactions between plants and the microbiome under drought conditions is still incomplete.

Molecular Aspects of Plant Growth Promotion and Protection by Bacillus subtilis

Christopher Blake et al.

Summary: Bacillus subtilis is a widely studied plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, with the ability to promote plant growth and control plant pathogens through various mechanisms. Despite extensive recognition and study of its benefits in crop production under laboratory conditions, the success of its application in fields varies greatly due to the inability of the bacteria to persist in the rhizosphere. Successful root colonization is crucial for the interaction between microbe and plant, highlighting the importance of bacterial traits and signaling interplay with the plant for growth promotion and biocontrol effects.

Plant-soil feedbacks depend on drought stress, functional group, and evolutionary relatedness in a semiarid grassland

Carlos Martorell et al.

Summary: Plant-soil feedback (PSF) is influenced by plant functional attributes and the environment, with positive PSFs more likely under dry conditions. Conspecifics and close relatives may exert negative PSFs on each other due to shared pathogens and similar resource consumption. Field studies show weaker PSFs compared to controlled conditions, highlighting the importance of plant traits and environmental context in determining the direction and strength of these feedbacks.

Drought induces shifts in soil fungal communities that can be linked to root traits across 24 plant species

Yudi M. Lozano et al.

Summary: Research showed that different plant species respond differently to soil fungal communities under drought conditions, with some plant species experiencing an increase in abundance and richness of saprotrophic fungi near the roots, while mutualistic fungi displayed the opposite pattern. Additionally, the community structure of pathogenic fungi was influenced by plant species, with slight effects from drought.

Genome-resolved metagenomics reveals role of iron metabolism in drought-induced rhizosphere microbiome dynamics

Ling Xu et al.

Summary: Recent studies have shown that drought leads to significant and highly conserved changes in the root microbiome, involving carbohydrate and secondary metabolite transport functionalities, as well as bacterial iron transport and metabolism functionalities. Iron homeostasis within the root is impacted by drought stress, and the loss of a plant phytosiderophore iron transporter affects microbial community composition.
