Beneficial Microorganisms as a Sustainable Alternative for Mitigating Biotic Stresses in Crops

Nowadays, population growth, the global temperature increase, and appearance of emerging diseases in important crops generate uncertainty regarding world food security. The use agrochemicals has been “go-to” solution for control phytopathogenic microorganisms, such as Magnaporte oryzae, causing blast disease rice other cereals; Botrytis cinerea, gray mold over 500 plant species; Puccinia spp., rust cereals. However, their excessive harmed human health, well ecosystems (contaminating water, contributing to soil degradation); besides, phytopathogens can develop resistance them. inoculation growth-promoting microorganisms (PGPMs) is a sustainable strategy increasing yield quality mitigating biotic stresses. Likewise, PGPMs, Pseudomonas, Bacillus, Trichoderma, trigger series signals reactions that lead induction systemic resistance, mechanism by which plants react microorganism stimulation activating defense system, resulting protection against future pathogen attack. These mechanisms help mitigate stresses threaten Thus, study these at molecular, transcriptomic, metabolomic levels indispensable elucidate how affect globally crops.
