H. S. G. de aPlant-bacteria association and symbiosish[electronic resource] c2024 aEditorial. ahe diverse range of research presented in this Research Topic underscores the pivotal role of plant-microbe interactions, especially the PGPB participation, in advancing sustainable agricultural practices. From elucidating the biochemical and molecular mechanisms underlying these interactions to exploring the potential of microbial inoculants in alleviating abiotic stresses and enhancing nutrient availability, each study contributes with valuable insights that pave the way for a greener and more resilient agricultural future. Additionally, the findings highlight the intricate dynamics between plants, microorganisms, and their environment, with the significance of symbiotic relationships in shaping crop growth and development under challenging conditions such as drought and salinity stresses. As we continue to unlock the secrets of sustainable agriculture, the synergistic partnership between plants and microorganisms emerges as a cornerstone for achieving a more sustainable and prosperous future for generations to come. aPlant growth promoting bacteria1 aPROENÇA, D.
