Agriculturally Important Microbiomes: Biodiversity and Multifarious PGP Attributes for Amelioration of Diverse Abiotic Stresses in Crops for Sustainable Agriculture
Journal Title: Biomedical Journal of Scientific & Technical Research (BJSTR) - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 4
Abstract
The Microbiomes from plant and different extreme environments have been reported and characterized for genotypic and multifarious functional attributes. The plant Microbiomes (phyllospheric, endophytic and rhizospheric) and microbiomes of extreme habitat (acidophilic, alkaliphilic, halophilic, psychrophilic, thermophilic and xerophilic) are natural bioresearches, which may play critical roles in the maintenance of global nutrient balance and ecosystem functions. The crops microbiomes and extreme habitat microbiomes with plant growth promoting (PGP) attributes have emerged as an important and promising tool to enhance plant growth, crop yield and soil fertility. The microbes possesses PGP attributes such as solubilization of phosphorus, potassium and zinc; ACC deaminase; biological nitrogen fixation and production of auxin, gibberellic acids, cytokinin, Fe-chelating compounds, ammonia, HCN, hydrolytic enzymes and secondary metabolites. These PGP microbes could be applied as biofertilizers [An eco-friendly agriculturally important bioinoculants] to replace the chemicals fertilizes and for amelioration of different abiotic stresses in crops inclining, salinity, temperature, drought and pH. The agriculturally important microbes may play important role in plant growth, development, and soil health for sustainable agriculture.
