Abstract
Soil salinization poses a great threat to global agricultural ecosystems, and finding ways to improve the soils affected by salt and maintain soil health and sustainable productivity has become a major challenge. Various physical, chemical and biological approaches are being evaluated to address this escalating environmental issue. Among them, fully utilizing salt-tolerant plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) has been labeled as a potential strategy to alleviate salt stress, since they can not only adapt well to saline soil environments but also enhance soil fertility and plant development under saline conditions. In the last few years, an increasing number of salt-tolerant PGPB have been excavated from specific ecological niches, and various mechanisms mediated by such bacterial strains, including but not limited to siderophore production, nitrogen fixation, enhanced nutrient availability, and phytohormone modulation, have been intensively studied to develop microbial inoculants in agriculture. This review outlines the positive impacts and growth-promoting mechanisms of a variety of salt-tolerant PGPB and opens up new avenues to commercialize cultivable microbes and reduce the detrimental impacts of salt stress on plant growth. Furthermore, considering the practical limitations of salt-tolerant PGPB in the implementation and potential integration of advanced biological techniques in salt-tolerant PGPB to enhance their effectiveness in promoting sustainable agriculture under salt stress are also accentuated.

Smart selection of soil microbes for resilient and sustainable viticulture. THE PLANT JOURNAL : FOR CELL AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2024; 118:1258-1267.

Abstract
The grapevine industry is of high economic importance in several countries worldwide. Its growing market demand led to an acceleration of the entire production processes, implying increasing use of water resources at the expense of environmental water balance and the hydrological cycle. Furthermore, in recent decades climate change and the consequent expansion of drought have further compromised water availability, making current agricultural systems even more fragile from ecological and economical perspectives. Consequently, farmers' income and welfare are increasingly unpredictable and unstable. Therefore, it is urgent to improve the resilience of vineyards, and of agro-ecosystems in general, by developing sustainable and environmentally friendly farming practices by more rational biological and natural resources use. The PRIMA project PROSIT addresses these challenges by characterizing and harnessing grapevine-associated microbiota to propose innovative and sustainable agronomic practices. PROSIT aims to determine the efficacy of natural microbiomes transferred from grapevines adapted to arid climate to commonly cultivated grapevine cultivars. In doing so it will test those natural microbiome effects on drought tolerance. This multidisciplinary project will utilize in vitro culture techniques, bioimaging, microbiological tests, metabolomics, metabarcoding and epigenetic analyses. These will be combined to shed light on molecular mechanisms triggered in plants by microbial associations upon water stress. To this end it is hoped that the project will serve as a blueprint not only for studies uncovering the microbiome role in drought stress in a wide range of species, but also for analyzing its effect on a wide range of stresses commonly encountered in modern agricultural systems.

Abstract
Biofilm and EPS characterization of a rhizobacterial isolate BC-II-20 was done using biophysical techniques. SEM revealed surface morphology of EPS powder to be irregular porous web-like structure. FTIR spectra showed peaks of the polymeric carbohydrate functional groups with probable role in imparting biological properties to EPS. XRD analysis showed signal at 220 (2θ) and confirms its amorphous or semi-crystalline nature. EPS derived from bacterial consortium gradually increased under 200 mM, 400 mM, 600 mM and 800 mM NaCl and SEM-EDAX analysis of EPS showed increase in Na & Cl peaks under the above salt concentrations, depicting EPS-NaCl binding. Triticum aestivum plants under 200 mM NaCl stress with different combinations of treatments showed that bacterial consortium provides tolerance. Under 200 mM salt stress the shoot length was 7.74 cm and total chlorophyll was 4.16 mg g-1Fw of the uninoculated plants whereas inoculated ones were 9.94 cm and 5.62 mg g-1Fw respectively. Under salinity stress, membrane stability index was increased from 47 % to 61 % and electrolyte leakage was decreased to 48 % from 64 %, after inoculation with bacterial consortium. Therefore, consortium comprising of these halotolerant and biofilm forming, EPS producing bioinoculants provides salt tolerance and can be exploited as a sustainable alternative for stress tolerance.

Abstract
Cytokinin (CK) is a plant hormone that plays crucial roles in regulating plant growth and development. CK-deficient plants are widely used as model systems for investigating the numerous physiological roles of CK. Since it was previously shown that transgenic or mutant CK-deficient Arabidopsis and Centaurium plants show superior tolerance to salinity, we examined the tolerance of three CK-deficient potato lines overexpressing the Arabidopsis thaliana CYTOKININ OXIDASE/DEHYDROGENASE2 (AtCKX2) gene to 50 mM, 100 mM, 150 mM, and 200 mM NaCl applied in vitro. Quantification of visible salinity injury, rooting and acclimatization efficiency, shoot growth, water saturation deficit, and chlorophyll content confirmed that the CK-deficient potato plants were more tolerant to low (50 mM) and moderate (100 mM) NaCl concentrations, but exhibited increased sensitivity to severe salinity stress (150 and 200 mM NaCl) compared to non-transformed control plants. These findings were corroborated by the data distribution patterns according to principal component analysis. Quantification of the activity of superoxide dismutases, peroxidases, and catalases revealed an impaired ability of AtCKX2-transgenic lines to upregulate the activity of antioxidant enzymes in response to salinity, which might contribute to the enhanced sensitivity of these potato lines to severe salt stress. Our results add complexity to the existing knowledge on the regulation of salinity tolerance by CK, as we show for the first time that CK-deficient plants can exhibit reduced rather than increased tolerance to severe salt stress.

Abstract
Many recent studies have highlighted the importance of plant growth-promoting (rhizo)bacteria (PGPR) in supporting plant's development, particularly under biotic and abiotic stress. Most focus on the plant growth-promoting traits of selected strains and the latter's effect on plant biomass, root architecture, leaf area, and specific metabolite accumulation. Regarding energy balance, plant growth is the outcome of an input (photosynthesis) and several outputs (i.e., respiration, exudation, shedding, and herbivory), frequently neglected in classical studies on PGPR-plant interaction. Here, we discuss the primary evidence underlying the modifications triggered by PGPR and their metabolites on the plant ecophysiology. We propose to detect PGPR-induced variations in the photosynthetic activity using leaf gas exchange and recommend setting up the correct timing for monitoring plant responses according to the specific objectives of the experiment. This research identifies the challenges and tries to provide future directions to scientists working on PGPR-plant interactions to exploit the potential of microorganisms' application in improving plant value.

Abstract
Background Soil salinity is a major problem in the world that affects the growth and yield of plants. Application of new and up-to-date techniques can help plants in dealing with salinity stress. One of the approaches for reducing environmental stress is the use of rhizosphere bacteria. Objective The aim of present study was to investigate the effect of the inoculation of Bacillus cereus on physiological and biochemical indicators and the expression of some key genes involved in the Artemisinin biosynthesis pathway in Artemisia absinthium under salinity stress. Materials and Methods The study was conducted using three different salinity levels (0, 75, 150 mM/NaCl) and two different bacterial treatments (i. e, without bacterial inoculation and co-inoculation with B. cereus isolates). The data from the experiments were analyzed using factorial analysis, and the resulting interaction effects were subsequently examined and discussed. Results The results showed that with increasing salinity, root and stem length, root and stem weight, root and stem dry weight, and potassium content were decreased, although the content of sodium was increased. Rhizosphere bacteria increased the contents of Artemisinin, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and iron and the expression of Amorpha-4,11-diene synthase and Cytochrome P450 monooxygenase1 genes as well as the growth indicators; although decreased the sodium content. The highest ADS expression was related to co-inoculation with B. cereus isolates E and B in 150 mM salinity. The highest CYP71AV1 expression was related to co-inoculation with B. cereus isolates E and B in 150 mM salinity. Conclusion These findings showed that the increase in growth indices under salinity stress was probably due to the improvement of nutrient absorption conditions as a result of ion homeostasis, sodium ion reduction and Artemisinin production conditions by rhizosphere B. cereus isolates E and B.

Abstract
Plant-associated microbes include taxonomically diverse communities of bacteria, archaebacteria, fungi, and viruses, which establish integral ecological relationships with the host plant and constitute the phyto-microbiome. The phyto-microbiome not only contributes in normal growth and development of plants but also plays a vital role in the maintenance of plant homeostasis during abiotic stress conditions. Owing to its immense metabolic potential, the phyto-microbiome provides the host plant with the capability to mitigate the abiotic stress through various mechanisms like production of antioxidants, plant growth hormones, bioactive compounds, detoxification of harmful chemicals and toxins, sequestration of reactive oxygen species and other free radicals. A deeper understanding of the structure and functions of the phyto-microbiome and the complex mechanisms of phyto-microbiome mediated abiotic stress mitigation would enable its utilization for abiotic stress alleviation of crop plants and development of stress-resistant crops. This review aims at exploring the potential of phyto-microbiome to alleviate drought, heat, salinity and heavy metal stress in crop plants and finding sustainable solutions to enhance the agricultural productivity. The mechanistic insights into the role of phytomicrobiome in imparting abiotic stress tolerance to plants have been summarized, that would be helpful in the development of novel bioinoculants. The high-throughput modern approaches involving candidate gene identification and target gene modification such as genomics, metagenomics, transcriptomics, metabolomics, and phyto-microbiome based genetic engineering have been discussed in wake of the ever-increasing demand of climate resilient crop plants.

Abstract
The anticipated rise in the length, frequency, and intensity of heatwaves (HW) in the Mediterranean region poses a danger to the crops, as these brief but high-intensity thermal stress events halt plant productivity. This arises the need to develop new eco-friendly sustainable strategies to overcome food demand. Halophytes such as Salicornia ramosissima appear as cash crop candidates, alongside with new biofertilization approaches using Plant Growth Promoting Bacteria (PGPB). In the present work, S. ramosissima plants exposed to heatwave (HW) treatments with and without marine PGPB inoculation is studied to evaluate the physiological responses behind eventual thermal adaptation conditions. Plants exposed to HW inoculated with ACC deaminase and IAA-producing PGPB showed a 50% reduction in the photochemical energy dissipation, when compared to their non-inoculated counterparts, indicating higher light-use efficiency. The observed concomitant increase (76-234%) in several pigments indicates improved inoculated HW-exposed individuals' light harvesting and photoprotection under stressful conditions. This reduction of the physiological stress levels in inoculated plants was also evident by the significant reduction of several antioxidant enzymes as well as of membrane lipid peroxidation products. Additionally, improved membrane stability could also be observed, through the regulation of fatty acid unsaturation levels, decreasing the excessive fluidity imposed by HW treatment. All these improved physiological traits associated with specific PGP traits highlight a key potential of the use of these PGPB consortiums as biofertilizers for S. ramosissima cash crop production in the Mediterranean, where increasing frequency in HW-events is a major drawback to plant production, even to warm-climate plants.
