Genomic insights of a native bacterial consortium for wheat production sustainability.

The use of plant growth-promoting bacteria as bioinoculants is a powerful tool to increase crop yield and quality and to improve nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) from fertilizers in plants. This study aimed to bioprospecting a native bacterial consortium ( subsp. TE3, TRQ8, and TRQ65), through bioinformatic analysis, and to quantify the impact of its inoculation on NUE (measured through N-isotopic techniques), grain yield, and grain quality of durum wheat variety CIRNO C2008 grown under three doses of urea (0, 120, and 240 kg N ha) during two consecutive agricultural cycles in the Yaqui Valley, Mexico.

Effect of a native bacterial consortium on growth, yield, and grain quality of durum wheat ( L. subsp. ) under different nitrogen rates in the Yaqui Valley, Mexico.

A field experiment was carried out to quantify the effect of a native bacterial inoculant on the growth, yield, and quality of the wheat crop, under different nitrogen (N) fertilizer rates in two agricultural seasons. Wheat was sown under field conditions at the Experimental Technology Transfer Center (CETT-910), as a representative wheat crop area from the Yaqui Valley, Sonora México. The experiment was conducted using different doses of nitrogen (0, 130, and 250 kg N ha) and a bacterial consortium (BC) ( TSO9, subsp.

Microencapsulation of Strains for Improving Wheat () Growth and Development.

Bio-formulation technologies have a limited impact on agricultural productivity in developing countries, especially those based on plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria. Thus, calcium alginate microbeads were synthesized and used for the protection and delivery of three beneficial strains for agricultural applications. The process of encapsulation had a high yield per gram for all bacteria and the microbeads protected the strains, allowing their survival, after 12 months of storage at room temperature.

Pangenomes-identified singletons for designing specific primers to identify bacterial strains in a plant growth-promoting consortium.

Background: The use of plant growth-promoting microorganisms represents a sustainable way to increase agricultural yields and plant health. Thus, the identification and tracking of these microorganisms are determinants for validating their positive effects on crops. Pangenomes allow the identification of singletons that can be used to design specific primers for the detection of the studied strains.

Transcriptional Regulation of Metabolic and Cellular Processes in Durum Wheat ( subsp. ) in the Face of Temperature Increasing.

The Yaqui Valley, Mexico, has been historically considered as an experimental field for semiarid regions worldwide since temperature is an important constraint affecting durum wheat cultivation. Here, we studied the transcriptional and morphometrical response of durum wheat at an increased temperature (+2 °C) for deciphering molecular mechanisms involved in the thermal adaptation by this crop. The morphometrical assay showed a significant decrease in almost all the evaluated traits (shoot/root length, biovolume index, and dry/shoot weight) except in the dry root weight and the root:shoot ratio.

Current trends in plant growth-promoting microorganisms research for sustainable food security.

The use of intensive non-sustainable agricultural practices for satisfying global food demand is degrading the agro-ecosystems, leading to their inability to produce efficient and equitable sources of calories. Microbial communities play an important role in the improvement of soil fertility and plant development; thus, the genetic and metabolic diversity of microbiota in agro-ecosystems is a promising alternative for designing microbial inoculants to not only produce enough food but also mitigates the economic, health, social, and environmental issues caused by conventional agriculture. This Special Issue has been launched to compile and inspire high-impact recent advancements on bioprospecting beneficial microorganisms as a sustainable strategy to warranty global food security.

Technical note: Gamma irradiation induces changes of phenotypic and agronomic traits in wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum).
