Abstract
Rhizosphere microbes play critical roles for plant's growth and health. Among them, the beneficial rhizobacteria have the potential to be developed as the biofertilizer or bioinoculants for sustaining the agricultural development. The efficient rhizosphere colonization of these rhizobacteria is a prerequisite for exerting their plant beneficial functions, but the colonizing process and underlying mechanisms have not been thoroughly reviewed, especially for the nonsymbiotic beneficial rhizobacteria. This review systematically analyzed the root colonizing process of the nonsymbiotic rhizobacteria and compared it with that of the symbiotic and pathogenic bacteria. This review also highlighted the approaches to improve the root colonization efficiency and proposed to study the rhizobacterial colonization from a holistic perspective of the rhizosphere microbiome under more natural conditions.

Kolodkin-Gal I, Parsek MR, Patrauchan MA. The roles of calcium signaling and calcium deposition in microbial multicellularity. Trends Microbiol 2023; 31:1225-1237. [PMID: 37429751 PMCID: PMC10772221 DOI: 10.1016/j.tim.2023.06.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Revised: 06/07/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023]
Abstract
Calcium signaling is an essential mediator of signal-controlling gene expression in most developmental systems. In addition, calcium has established extracellular functions as a structural component of biogenic minerals found in complex tissues. In bacteria, the formation of calcium carbonate structures is associated with complex colony morphology. Genes promoting the formation of biogenic minerals are essential for proper biofilm development and protection against antimicrobial solutes and toxins. Here we review recent findings on the role of calcium and calcium signaling as emerging regulators of biofilm formation in beneficial bacteria, as well as essential mediators of biofilm formation and virulence in human pathogens. The presented analysis concludes that the new understanding of calcium signaling may help to improve the performance of beneficial strains for sustainable agriculture, microbiome manipulation, and sustainable construction. Unraveling the roles of calcium may also promote the development of novel therapies against biofilm infections that target calcium uptake, calcium sensors, and calcium carbonate deposition.
