“…Using omics approaches, beneficial microbes used in fermentation processes, such as yogurt, cheese, and kimchi, can be studied to optimize fermentation conditions and develop new probiotic foods with improved nutritional and health benefits. In addition, plant-microbe interaction omics helps to create environmentally friendly food production methods (Joshi et al, 2023 ; Kumari et al, 2023 ). By understanding the role of plant-associated microbes in nutrient cycling, soil health, and plant growth promotion, researchers can identify strains that can be used as biofertilizers, biocontrol agents against plant pathogens, and biostimulants to boost crop productivity and resilience to environmental stressors.…”

Plant-microbe interactions are pivotal for ecosystem dynamics and sustainable agriculture, and are influenced by various factors, such as host characteristics, environmental conditions, and human activities. Omics technologies, including genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, have revolutionized our understanding of these interactions. Genomics elucidates key genes, transcriptomics reveals gene expression dynamics, proteomics identifies essential proteins, and metabolomics profiles small molecules, thereby offering a holistic perspective. This review synthesizes diverse microbial-plant interactions, showcasing the application of omics in understanding mechanisms, such as nitrogen fixation, systemic resistance induction, mycorrhizal association, and pathogen-host interactions. Despite the challenges of data integration and ethical considerations, omics approaches promise advancements in precision intervention and resilient agricultural practices. Future research should address data integration challenges, enhance omics technology resolution, explore epigenomics, and understand plant-microbe dynamics under diverse conditions. In conclusion, omics technologies hold immense promise for optimizing agricultural strategies and fortifying resilient plant-microbe alliances, paving the way for sustainable agriculture and environmental stewardship.
