“…This should be extended to other beneficial rhizobacteria whose interactions with herbivores have been associated with induced susceptibility in various host plants (Katayama et al, 2010(Katayama et al, , 2011aPineda et al, 2012). Resources need to be allocated toward research and innovation in microbial genetic resources (Sharma et al, 2018), so as to identify and develop competitive and efficient Rhizobium strains (Irisarri et al, 2019). This should follow guidelines that deliver endophytic plant growth promoting microbes and identifying non-beneficial ones for the bio-inoculant and biofertilizer industry (Avedi et al, 2014;Ochieno, 2020).…”

Rhizobia are bacteria that exhibit both endophytic and free-living lifestyles. Endophytic rhizobial strains are widely known to infect leguminous host plants, while some do infect non-legumes. Infection of leguminous roots often results in the formation of root nodules. Associations between rhizobia and host plants may result in beneficial or non-beneficial effects. Such effects are linked to various biochemical changes that have far-reaching implications on relationships between host plants and the dependent multitrophic biodiversity. This paper explores relationships that exist between rhizobia and various plant species. Emphasis is on nutritional and phytochemical changes that occur in rhizobial host plants, and how such changes affect diverse consumers at different trophic levels. The purpose of this paper is to bring into context various aspects of such interactions that could improve knowledge on the application of rhizobia in different fields. The relevance of rhizobia in sustainable food systems is addressed in context.

“…Mexican Journal of PHYTOPATHOLOGY Revista Mexicana de FITOPATOLOGÍA generate biotechnological developments applicable to agriculture (Desmeth, 2017). In this context, an MGR can be defined as any microbial strain that is authenticated, taxonomically defined, physiologically characterized, with quality control, well-documented and with real or potential value (Sharma et al, 2018) (Figure 4). The 758 collections registered in the World Data Center for Microorganisms (WDCM)(http://www.wdcm.…”

“…La transición etiológica a la tecnológica implicó escalar el cultivo de microorganismos en laboratorios especializados para generar desarrollos biotecnológicos aplicables a la agricultura (Desmeth, 2017). En este contexto, un RGM se puede definir como cualquier cepa microbiana que este autenticada, definida taxonómicamente, caracterizada fisiológicamente, con control de calidad, bien documentada, y con valor potencial o real (Sharma et al, 2018) (Figura 4). Las 758 colecciones registradas en el Centro Mundial de Datos para Microorganismos (WDCM, por sus siglas en inglés)(http:// www.wdcm.org/) facilitan el estudio RGM ya que permite encontrar material de referencia taxonómica y sistematiza acervos de diversidad biológica microbiana en el amplio espectro simbiótico.…”

<p>COVID-19 has had an impact on the regional and worldwide agricultural value chain, jeopardizing food security. It is time to reassess the approach of the agri-food sector and to consider that the food supply and plant health, as agrosystemic services, must depend on strategies with a low impact on productive and environmental assets. One strategy is the use and optimization of microbial genetic resources (MGR) related to agroecosystems as a source of balance, functionality, productivity, inhibition of the impact of pests and pathogens, and contribution to the profitability of agri-food activity. It is necessary to strengthen and develop regional agricultural systems that are dynamic, that mitigate damages to the environment and produce nutritional and nutraceutical foods that ensure human health. Agricultural sciences are undergoing changes in scientific paradigms that will benefit the agri-food sector if we are able to learn from the impacts of an extensive technological agriculture. Approaching agriculture from an agro-systemic point of view in which the crop-community is the functional biological unit of study and to preserve the MGR diversity are the greatest challenges to create sustainable and resilient strategies and technologies that contribute towards human health and help prevent risks during health crises such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.</p>
