TL;DR
This review synthesizes recent advances in bacterial-mediated antiviral defense across major crop–virus systems, with emphasis on underlying molecular and physiological mechanisms.
Plant diseases significantly reduce worldwide agricultural production, causing yield declines of 21-30% for major crops, while excessive use of pesticides and chemicals poses serious health and environmental risks. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) offer an environmentally acceptable, efficient biocontrol app...
Overall, Methylobacterium spp.
Evidence indicates that PSMs act through multiple mechanisms, including membrane disruption, inhibition of viral replication, suppression of fungal growth, interference with bacterial metabolism, and activation of plant defense responses, which means broader agricultural implementation requires further field validation...
Viral diseases represent one of the most serious constraints to global maize production, where increasing disease incidence and expanding viral diversity threaten yield stability and food security. Several viruses are recognized as the most economically important pathogens in maize. Maize-infecting viruses employ sophi...
Plant–microbe interaction is an essential component of sustainable agriculture which promotes plant growth, improves nutrient assimilation, and enhances plant resistance to various environmental stress conditions. Beneficial microbes, such as rhizobacteria, mycorrhizal fungi, and endophytes, boost plant functions using...
This review critically synthesizes the ‘landscape’ of endophyte-mediated pest resistance through direct antagonism by insecticidal metabolites and enzymes, immune priming, signaling crosstalk, volatile organic compound-mediated indirect defense, and microbiome restructuring to provide a translational framework for movi...
