Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and endophytes accelerate phytoremediation of metalliferous soils. (2011, background): “The mechanisms include the production of siderophores (Miethke and Marahiel, 2007), cell wall lytic enzymes (Backman and Sikora, 2008), and antibiotic metabolites (Schouten et al., 2004) and induction of systemic resistance in plants (Kloepper et al., 2004; van Loon et al., 2004).”
Insect pathogens as biological control agents: Back to the future. (2015, background): “Commonly, these are bacteria and fungi that have either no effect or have a 1307 beneficial relationship with their host, including the ability to naturally confer resistance to pests 1308 and diseases (Backman and Sikora, 2008).”
A review: Biofertilizer - A key player in enhancing soil fertility and crop productivity (2018, background): “Apart from acting as growth promoting agents, they can provide resistance against pathogens by producing metabolites (41).”
Biocontrol potential of Trichoderma martiale against the black-pod disease (Phytophthora palmivora) of cacao. (2009, background): “When disease pressure increases or an outbreak occurs, maximal levels of protection are needed, such that chemical fungicides tend to exhibit an efficient shortterm control effect, which can be later sustained by the BCA (Harman, 1996; Whipps and Lumsden, 2001; Backman and Sikora, 2008 ).”
Bacterial-Fungal Interactions: Hyphens between Agricultural, Clinical, Environmental, and Food Microbiologists (2011, background): “to exploit them for the biocontrol of pathogens (9, 17, 20, 35, 238, 247).”
Biofertilizers function as key player in sustainable agriculture by improving soil fertility, plant tolerance and crop productivity (2014, background): “Apart from acting as growth-promoting agents they can provide resistance against pathogens by producing metabolites [88].”
