Abstract

Recent researches have shown that plants are associated with plethora of microorganisms also called plant microbiome. Plant microbiome interactions primarily affect plant growth, development, plant -fitness and productivity. Depending upon the specific habitat of plant, microbial communities are mainly predominant in three different regions namely rhizosphere, phyllosphere and endosphere. The full range of microbes and their association with plants and hence maintenance of crop productivity has recently begun to be explored. In this article, we primarily focus on the interaction of plants and root associated bacteria enhancing plant mineral nutrition, summarizing the current knowledge in several research fields that can converge to improve our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underpinning this phenomenon.
