Some of the microbes that inhabit this zone are bacteria and fungi that are capable of efficiently colonizing roots and rhizosphere soil. These microorganisms can be used as biofertilizers for improving agricultural production even under stressful environmental conditions. In contrast to PGPM, plant growth regulators (PGR) are chemical compounds that significantly affect the growth and differentiation of plant cells and tissues. They function as chemical messengers for intercellular communication and play a vital role in plant signaling networks as they are involved in the plant developmental process and a wide range of biotic and abiotic stress responses. The application of PGPM and plant growth regulators/hormones or the synthesis of PGR and signal transduction, perception, and cross-talk creates a complex network that plays an essential role in the regulation of plant physiological processes. A better understanding of the mechanism of action of PGPM and PGR and their roles in plant growth and development, interaction and independence in their action, and hormonal crosstalk under stresses is essential for agricultural production and research. Therefore, this book has contributions in the form of research and review papers from eminent scientists worldwide and discusses the role of PGPM and PGR in agriculture production and research, their potentials as biocontrol agents, their effects on physicochemical properties of soil, innovation for sustainable agriculture, their role in seed transplanting, and their role in mitigating biotic and abiotic stresses.Research & information: generalbicsscPaecilomycesPGPFtomatopepperplant probiotic microorganismsSpodoptera litura (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)Solanum lycopersicum L.secondary metabolitesplant insect interactionsseaweed extractphytohormone profilingfertilizersantioxidantplant growth regulatorsbrown seaweedgreen algaeabiotic stressescell membrane stabilityclimate changeosmolytespolyaminesbacterial community compositionliquid food waste materials (LFM)plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB)plant growth-promoting (PGP) traitssalinityPGPRwheatcompatible solutesantioxidant enzymesTrichodermaplant growth promotionbiostimulantaridityBacillus sp.biocharnutrient availabilityorganic mattersoil healthmVOCsPlant growth promoting rhizobacteriaMentha piperitaBacillus amyloliquefaciens GB03salt stressMDADPPHBradyrhizobium japonicumPseudomonas putidaplant growthplant nutrientssoil enzymessoil nutrientssoybeansweet pepperBacilluschitosanchlorophyll fluorescencefruit yieldplant growth promoting microorganismsabiotic stressbiotic stressflavonoidsbiotic and abiotic stresssymbiosissignalingrhizobiumAMFallelopathybiocontrol Aspergillus japonicusroot-knot nematodefermentation filtratebiological controlseed germinationα-Tocopherolantioxidantsdroughtnutrient dynamicstissue specific responsedeep N fertilizationperoxidase activitycatalase activityrice cultivationABA biosynthesisdrought stressgene expressionsignaling networktransportersZea mays L.environmental stressesendophytic bacteriaplant growth promoting abilitychromiumStaphylococcus aureusoxidative stressavailable phosphorusenriched compostpoultry litterrock phosphatepear treesPGRsustainable developmentcrop nutritionfertiliserTimac Agro Italiaallelopathic bacteriaantimetabolitesphytotoxic metabolitesrhizobacteriaweed invasionanthocyaninscolorfruit sizephenolicsPunica granatumPGPMs (plant growth-promoting microorganisms)tee tree oilplant biostimulantssoil-borne phytopathogensantagonistic fungibiocontrolbiotic effectcrop productionRIDERdrylandswater conservationbiomass reductioncereal cropsgrowth regulatorsmetal stresssugar beetnitrogen fertilizergibberellic acidTSSsugar yieldResearch & information: generalKhan Naeemedt1289228Khan NaeemothBOOK9910557367403321Application of Plant Growth Promoting Microorganism and Plant Growth Regulators in Agricultural Production and Research3021114UNINA
