Abstract
The rapid expansion of degraded soil puts pressure on agricultural crop yield while also increasing the likelihood of food scarcity in the near future at the global level. The degraded soil does not suit plants growth owing to the alteration in biogeochemical cycles of nutrients, soil microbial diversity, soil organic matter, and increasing concentration of heavy metals and organic chemicals. Therefore, it is imperative that a solution should be found for such emerging issues in order to establish a sustainable future. In this context, the importance of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) for their ability to reduce plant stress has been recognized. A direct and indirect mechanism in plant growth promotion is facilitated by PGPR via phytostimulation, biofertilizers, and biocontrol activities. However, plant stress mediated by deteriorated soil at the field level is not entirely addressed by the implementation of PGPR at the field level. Thus, emerging methods such as CRISPR and nanotechnological approaches along with PGPR could manage degraded soil effectively. In the pursuit of the critical gaps in this respect, the present review discusses the recent advancement in PGPR action when used along with nanomaterials and CRISPR, impacting plant growth under degraded soil, thereby opening a new horizon for researchers in this field to mitigate the challenges of degraded soil.

Abstract
The PAH degrading microbial consortium was collected from sodic soil of the nursery of Guru Jambheshwar University of Science and Technology, Hisar, Haryana (India). And the soil was artificially amended with phenanthrene and naphthalene to isolate the PAHs degrading microbial consortium. The diversity of microbial consortium was analyzed using the NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) based metagenomic approach. The result of diversity analysis showed species Tepidanaerobacter syntrophicus, Sphingomonas oliophenolica, Arthrobacter psychrochitinipnius, Bifidobacterium bombi, Nocardiodies islandensis, Rhodovibrio sodomensis, Thiorhodococus pfennigii, Aeromicrobium ponti, Steroidobacter dentrificans, Actinomaduria maheshkhaliensis, Dactylosporangium maewongense, Pelotomaculum isophthalicicum, and Nocardioides islandensis were present in the consortium. Moreover, Sphingomonas, Arthrobacter, Sphingobium, Azospirillium, Thirohodococcus, and Pelotomaculum were the prominent pollutant degrader genera in the microbial consortium. Since the bioremediation of these pollutants occurs with a significant reduction in toxicity, the study's perspective is to use this type of consortium for bioremediation of specifically contaminated soil.

Abstract
To understand the plant (Vigna unguiculata) and plant-growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) (Microcococcus luteus WN01) interactions in crude oil contaminated soil, experiments were conducted based on the newly designed rhizobox system. The rhizobox was divided into three main compartments namely the rhizosphere zone, the mid-zone, and the bulk soil zone, in accordance with the distance from the plant. Plants were grown in these three-chambered pots for 30 days under natural conditions. The plant root exudates were determined by analyzing for carbohydrates, amino acids, and phenolic compounds. The degradation of alkane, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs) were quantified by GC-FID. Soil catalase, dehydrogenase, and invertase activities were determined. The microbial community structure was assessed using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE). Results showed that the inoculation of M. luteus WN01 significantly enhanced cowpea root biomass and exudates, especially the phenolic compounds. Bioaugmented phytoremediation by cowpea and M. luteus promoted rhizodegradation of TPH. Cowpea stimulated microbial growth, soil dehydrogenase, and invertase activities and enhanced bacterial community diversity in oil contaminated soil. The rhizosphere zone of cowpea inoculated with M. luteus showed the highest removal efficiency, microbial activities, microbial population, and bacterial community diversity indicating the strong synergic interactions between M. luteus and cowpea.

Abstract
The bioelectrochemical degradation of organic pollutants has attracted considerable attention owing to its remarkable sustainability and low cost. However, the application of bioelectrochemical system (BES) for the degradation of pollutants in soils is hindered by limitations in the effective distance in the soil matrix. In this study, a biochar-amended BES was constructed to evaluate the degradation of organic pollutants. This system was expected to extend the electron transfer distance via conductive biochar in soils. The results showed that biochar pyrolyzed at 900 °C facilitated the degradation of phenanthrene (PHE) and biphenyl (BP) in the soil BES (SBES), reaching 86.4%-95.1% and 88.8%-95.3% in 27 days, respectively. The effective distance of SBESs was estimated to be 154-271 cm away from the electrode, which increased 1.9-3 fold after the addition of biochar. Microbial community and functional gene analysis confirmed that biochar enriched functional degrading bacteria. These findings demonstrate that the promotion of long-distance electron transfer and the formation of soil conductive networks can be achieved by biochar amendment. Thus, this study provides a basis for the effective degradation of for persistent organic pollutants in petroleum-contaminated soils using bioelectrochemical strategy.

Abstract
The present work aimed to study suitability of a consortium of Azospirillum brasilense, Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus, Herbaspirillum seropedicae, and Burkholderia ambifaria as biofertilizers. Strains were assayed for plant growth-promoting characteristics (i.e., auxins production, phosphate solubilizing capability, and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase activity). The consortium of four bacteria was then inoculated on carrot seeds and tested in an open field experiment. During the open field experiment, plant growth (morphological parameters, chlorophylls, and carotenoids), soil chemical analysis, and molecular and physiological profiles of soils were investigated. Each strain produced different amounts of indole-3acetic acid and several indole-derivates molecules. All strains showed phosphate solubilization capability, while 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase activity was only detected in H. seropedicae and B. ambifaria. The bacterial consortium of the four strains gave interesting results in the open field cultivation of carrot. Plant development was positively affected by the presence of the consortium, as was soil fertility and microbial community structure and diversity. The present work allowed for deepening our knowledge on four bacteria, already known for years for having several interesting characteristics, but whose interactions were almost unknown, particularly in view of their use as a consortium in a valid fertilization strategy, in substitution of agrochemicals for a sustainable agriculture.
