Role of Endophytes in Abiotic Stress Tolerance: With Special Emphasis on Serendipita indica

Jaagriti Tyagi et al.

Summary: Abiotic stresses in soil, such as high salinity, temperature, drought, heavy metals, and nutrient imbalances, have negative effects on plant growth and crop productivity. Conventional methods of biomass production in agriculture are not sustainable and often harm the ecosystem. The use of fungal endophytes, such as Serendipita indica, can help increase plant growth and improve stress tolerance in crops. This review emphasizes the importance of fungal endophyte colonization in plant growth management under abiotic stress conditions.

Significance of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in Mitigating Abiotic Environmental Stress in Medicinal and Aromatic Plants: A Review

Abir Israel et al.

Summary: Medicinal and aromatic plants have long been used in traditional medicine, cosmetics, and food industries, and their cultivation has gained global interest in recent years. To enhance plant growth and productivity in the face of abiotic stresses, such as water stress and pollution, the association with beneficial microorganisms like arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi has proven effective.

Rhizobium and Mycorrhizal Fungal Species Improved Soybean Yield Under Drought Stress Conditions

Ozede N. Igiehon et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of rhizobia species and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on soybean tolerance to drought stress, showing significant impacts on soybean growth and yield. Co-inoculation of rhizobia and mycorrhizal fungi enhanced soybean growth under drought conditions, indicating the biotechnological potential of harnessing these microbial agents to address food insecurity.
