“…Interactions are essential to fighting biotic and abiotic stress where biomolecules and phytohormones take the lead in disease control and stress responses [26]. Endophytic bacteria are important for disease resistance and wellness and are easily accessible to root systems; plant species and soil characteristics strongly affect the form's recruitment [43]. Endophytic bacteria reinforce the plant's defence reactions; they prevent pathogen use of your resources and tissues and promote plant health and resistance to tension, especially evident in rapidly changing climatic circumstances [44].…”

Changing understanding of endophytes in the realm of agriculture suggests the possibility of improving soil health and productivity, as well as the overall environmental sustainability of agriculture. These non-pathogenic microorganisms living in a plant are capable of conferring stress tolerance, promoting growth, and suppressing pathogens. Nevertheless, navigating regulatory barriers and streamlining application techniques pose challenges. To maximize their agricultural utility, future research should focus on exploring new strains, optimizing application techniques, and integrating endophytes into crop breeding programs. Leveraging endophytes may further lead to the developing of sustainable agriculture and reduce many concerns related to global food security.

“…They have been recently used in agriculture as biofertilizers, biocontrols, and inducers of abiotic stress. The effective colonization of the host plant by the endophyte is a necessary step in order to start these advantageous plant-microbe interactions that are engaged in boosting plant growth [2]. In general, all plants and their parts are inhabited by endophytic microbes which play a crucial role in plant growth and stress resilience.…”

Endophytic bacteria are promising source of plant probiotics due to their ability to promote plant growth and control pathogens. This study aims to isolate diverse endophytic bacteria capable of boosting plant growth and controlling pathogens. A total of 62 endophytic bacteria were isolated from the stems, leaves and roots of the flowering plant (Matthiola incana), the potato plant (Solanum tuberosum), the Prickly pear plant (Opuntia-ficus indica), and seedlings of Acacia sp. trees. Endophytic bacterial isolates were screened for their production of indole acetic acid (IAA) and cellulase enzyme, as well as their antagonistic activities against potato pathogens such as Ralstonia solanacearum and Fusarium oxysporum. The most promising endophytic isolates ML7 and PL10 showed the highest productivity of IAA, 69.1 and 64.8 µg/ml respectively. They also exhibited high cellulase activities on Congo red plates showing clear zone/colony diameters ratios of 3.36 and 2.8 respectively. The antagonistic activities of ML7 and PL10 against R. solanacearum were represented as 6 and 16mm inhibition zones diameters, while the inhibition zones diameters representing the antagonistic activities of ML7 and PL10 against F. oxysporum were 58 and 7mm, respectively. Isolates ML7 and PL10 exhibited a good ability to survive in a broad range of temperatures from 15 to 45 °C and upon exposure to direct UV radiation for 3 hours. Finally, isolates ML7 and PL10 were identified as Achromobacter marplatensis and Bacillus velezensis, respectively. Therefore, it is highly recommended that they can be used as plant probiotics in future field studies.
