For all living organisms, nitrogen is an essential element, while being the most limiting in
ecosystems and for crop production. Despite the significant contribution of synthetic …

The genus Azospirillum comprises plant-growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB), which have
been broadly studied. The benefits to plants by inoculation with Azospirillum have been …

Plant microbiomes play an important role in agricultural productivity, but there is still much to
learn about their provenance, diversity, and organization. In order to study the role of vertical …

Azospirillum is one of the most studied plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB); it
represents a common model for plant-bacterial interactions. While Azospirillum brasilense is …

Endophytic microbes are known to live asymptomatically inside their host throughout
different stages of their life cycle and play crucial roles in the growth, development, fitness …

Soil consists of diverse microscopic life forms such as actinomycetes, algae, bacteria, fungi,
nematodes, and protozoans. But, the rhizospheric region is the most widely colonized …

Background and aim Nitrogen-fixing bacteria or diazotrophs have been isolated for many
years using different formulations of N-free semi-solid media. However, the strategies used …

During the last 35 years of studies of Azospirillum–plant interaction, over 20 proposals were
suggested for the mechanism of action by which Azospirillum spp., the most intensively …

Endophytic microbes are ubiquitous in most plant species. Endophytic microbes enter plants
mainly through wounds, naturally occurring as a result of plant growth or through root hairs …

The use of plant growth-promoting microbes may prove useful in developing strategies to
facilitate growth of different crops. The use of microbe formulation with the aim of improving …
