Alternative and ecological strategies are necessary and demanded for disease management in order to reduce the use of pesticides in agriculture. Thus, the use of biological control agents such as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) or several strains of the beneficial fungus Trichoderma spp. to combat plant diseases is the basis of biocontrol of plant pathogens and is a good approach to reach this healthy and environmentally adequate objective.

Plant-growth-promoting microorganisms are extensively studied and employed as alternatives to toxic agrochemicals to enhance plant health. However, one of the main concerns regarding their use is their limited capacity to colonize plant tissues after initial application. Understanding the molecular mechanisms involved during plant colonization could help to develop strategies to improve the efficacy of beneficial microbes in the field.
