Plant Growth-Promoting Bacteria (PGPB) with Biofilm-Forming Ability: A Multifaceted Agent for Sustainable Agriculture

Nur Ajijah et al.

Summary: Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) enhance plant growth and protect plants from biotic and abiotic stresses through mechanisms such as colonization of plant surfaces and the formation of protective biofilms. These biofilms offer benefits like resistance to environmental conditions, protection against pathogens, and improved nutrient acquisition, facilitating beneficial bacteria-plant interactions. PGPB biofilms can outcompete other microorganisms on plant surfaces and increase agricultural productivity and crop yields.

Physiological and biochemical changes during fruit maturation and ripening in highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.)

Junyan Shi et al.

Summary: The sweetness of blueberry fruit increases over time as acids are converted to sugars, and a full flavor development is formed by harvest. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed the changes and correlations in physiological and biochemical characteristics of blueberries at different maturity stages, including texture, quality, taste, and energy change. Our findings show that as the fruit ripens, the total anthocyanin content increases, firmness decreases, and several other factors such as moisture content, titratable acid, chlorophyll and carotenoid content decrease, while total soluble solids, pH, TSS/TA ratio, vitamin C, soluble proteins, and ethylene production increase. Antioxidant enzyme activity gradually increases during ripening, but energy-related metabolites decrease. Using an electronic tongue and GC-MS, we detected the flavor attributes of sweetness, bitterness, and sourness, as well as 76 volatile compounds. In summary, the maturation of blueberries is positively correlated with anthocyanins, nutrients, antioxidant activity, taste, and aroma, but negatively correlated with energy metabolism.

Effect of Rhizobium mechanisms in improving tolerance to saline stress in lettuce plants

Miguel Ayuso-Calles et al.

Summary: This study characterized the volatilome of Rhizobium bacteria for the first time and investigated their interaction with lettuce under saline and non-saline conditions. The results showed that Rhizobium sp. GPTR29 increased the growth and yield of lettuce under both normal and saline conditions. The volatilome of Rhizobium was found to be different under saline conditions, and exposure to specific compounds resulted in significant increases in plant development. Under greenhouse conditions, inoculation with Rhizobium sp. GPTR29 increased the shoot fresh and dry weight of lettuce. Analysis of phenolic compounds revealed an increase in flavonoid content under saline conditions.
