AI Article Synopsis
- The current challenges in agriculture necessitate sustainable management solutions, leading to the rise of biofertilizers as an effective alternative for enhancing crop growth and stress resistance.
- The use of beneficial microbial strains can influence plant metabolism, impacting processes such as cell wall formation and nutrient transport, thereby promoting better growth.
- Recent research shows that the strain YC4-R4 successfully stimulates various metabolic pathways in plants, including the biosynthesis of lipids, cellulose, phenolics, and flavonoids, through both transcriptomic and biochemical methods.
Article Abstract
As a response to the current challenges in agriculture, the application of alternatives to a more sustainable management is required. Thus, biofertilizers begin to emerge as a reliable alternative to improve crop development and resistance to stresses. Among other effects on the plant, the use of beneficial strains may cause changes in their metabolic regulation, as in cell wall biogenesis and in nutrient/ion transportation, improving their growth process. Previous works showed that inoculation with the strain YC4-R4 effectively promoted vegetative growth of Col-0 plants. Hence, the present work recorded a strain-mediated induction of several pathways of the central and secondary metabolism of the plant, as the induction of lipid, cellulose, phenol, and flavonoid biosynthesis, by using transcriptomic and biochemical analyses.
