Abstract

Salinity in agricultural soil is a major problem around the world, with negative consequences for the growth and production of a wide range of crops. To counteract these harmful effects, plants sometimes have bacterial partners that contain the enzyme 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) deaminase, which acts by degrading ACC (the precursor of ethylene in all higher plants). The enzymatic activity of ACC deaminase results in the production of α-ketobutyrate and ammonia, which, by lowering ACC levels, prevents excessive increases in the synthesis of ethylene under various stress conditions and is one of the most efficient mechanisms to induce plant tolerance to salt stress. In the present review, recent works on the role of ACC deaminase are discussed alongside its importance in promoting plant growth under conditions of salt stress in endophytic and rhizospheric bacteria, with some emphasis on Bacillus species. In addition, the toxic effects of soil salinity on plants and microbial biodiversity are analysed. Recent findings on the synergetic functioning of ACC deaminase and other bacterial mechanisms of salt stress tolerance, such as trehalose accumulation, are also summarized. Finally, we discuss the various advantages of ACC deaminase-producing bacilli as bioinoculants to address the problem of salinity in agricultural soils.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
