The role of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria in strengthening plant resistance to fluoride toxicity: a review. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1271034. [PMID: 37901824 PMCID: PMC10603187 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1271034] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
A wide variety of bacteria are present in soil but in rhizospheric area, the majority of microbes helps plant in defending diseases and facilitate nutrient uptake. These microorganisms are supported by plants and they are known as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). The PGPRs have the potential to replace chemical fertilizers in a way that is more advantageous for the environment. Fluoride (F) is one of the highly escalating, naturally present contaminants that can be hazardous for PGPRs because of its antibacterial capacity. The interactions of F with different bacterial species in groundwater systems are still not well understood. However, the interaction of PGPR with plants in the rhizosphere region reduces the detrimental effects of pollutants and increases plants' ability to endure abiotic stress. Many studies reveal that PGPRs have developed F defense mechanisms, which include efflux pumps, Intracellular sequestration, enzyme modifications, enhanced DNA repair mechanism, detoxification enzymes, ion transporter/antiporters, F riboswitches, and genetic mutations. These resistance characteristics are frequently discovered by isolating PGPRs from high F-contaminated areas or by exposing cells to fluoride in laboratory conditions. Numerous studies have identified F-resistant microorganisms that possess additional F transporters and duplicates of the well-known targets of F. Plants are prone to F accumulation despite the soil's low F content, which may negatively affect their growth and development. PGPRs can be used as efficient F bioremediators for the soil environment. Environmental biotechnology focuses on creating genetically modified rhizobacteria that can degrade F contaminants over time. The present review focuses on a thorough systemic analysis of contemporary biotechnological techniques, such as gene editing and manipulation methods, for improving plant-microbe interactions for F remediation and suggests the importance of PGPRs in improving soil health and reducing the detrimental effects of F toxicity. The most recent developments in the realm of microbial assistance in the treatment of F-contaminated environments are also highlighted.

A novel and economical approach for the synthesis of short rod-shaped mesoporous silica nanoparticles from coal fly ash waste by Bacillus circulans MTCC 6811. World J Microbiol Biotechnol 2023; 39:289. [PMID: 37640981 DOI: 10.1007/s11274-023-03734-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/31/2023]
Abstract
Coal fly ash (CFA) is an industrial byproduct produced during the production of electricity in thermal power plants from the burning of pulverized coal. It is considered hazardous due to the presence of toxic heavy metals while it is also considered valuable due to the presence of value-added minerals like silicates, alumina, and iron oxides. Silica nanoparticles' demands and application have increased drastically in the last decade due to their mesoporous nature, high surface area to volume ratio, etc. Here in the present research work, short rod-shaped, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) have been synthesized from coal fly ash by using Bacillus circulans MTCC 6811 in two steps. Firstly, CFA was kept with the bacterial culture for bioleaching for 25 days in an incubator shaker at 120 rpm. Secondly, the dissolved silica in the medium was precipitated with the 4 M sodium hydroxide to obtain a short rod-shaped MSN. The purification of the synthesized silica particle was done by treating them with 1 M HCl at 120 °C, for 90 min. The synthesized short rod-shaped MSN were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Particle size analyzer (PSA), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and transmission electron microscope. The microscopic techniques revealed the short rod-shaped mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) for the final nano-silica, whose size varies from 40 to 80 nm, with an average size of 36 ± 5 nm. The XRD shows the crystalline nature of the synthesized MSN having a crystallite size of 36 nm. The FTIR showed the three characteristic bands in the range of 400-1100 cm-1, indicating the purity of the sample. The energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) showed 53.04 wt% oxygen and 43.42% Si along with 3.54% carbon in the final MSN. The particle size analyzer revealed that the average particle size is 368.7 nm in radius and the polydispersity index (PDI) is 0.667. Such a novel and economical approach could be helpful in the synthesis of silica in high yield with high purity from coal fly ash and other similar waste.

Abstract
Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) has gained immense importance in the last decade due to its in-depth study and the role of the rhizosphere as an ecological unit in the biosphere. A putative PGPR is considered PGPR only when it may have a positive impact on the plant after inoculation. From the various pieces of literature, it has been found that these bacteria improve the growth of plants and their products through their plant growth-promoting activities. A microbial consortium has a positive effect on plant growth-promoting (PGP) activities evident by the literature. In the natural ecosystem, rhizobacteria interact synergistically and antagonistically with each other in the form of a consortium, but in a natural consortium, there are various oscillating environmental conditions that affect the potential mechanism of the consortium. For the sustainable development of our ecological environment, it is our utmost necessity to maintain the stability of the rhizobacterial consortium in fluctuating environmental conditions. In the last decade, various studies have been conducted to design synthetic rhizobacterial consortium that helps to integrate cross-feeding over microbial strains and reveal their social interactions. In this review, the authors have emphasized covering all the studies on designing synthetic rhizobacterial consortiums, their strategies, mechanism, and their application in the field of environmental ecology and biotechnology.
