“…Hussain et al [96] also reported that PSM, (Pseudomonas, Mycobacterium, Bacillus, Pantoea Rhizobia, and Burkholderia) adopt different strategies to solubilize phosphorus, PSMs excrete organic acids such as citric acid, oxalic acid, and succinic acids; enzymes such as phosphatases and phytases; and ion chelators such as siderophores, readily make phosphorus available to plants [28]. Then, as evidenced in the findings of Rawat et al [97] these microorganisms can contribute to ecological balance, produce safe food and meet the needs of sustainable agriculture.…”

In the previous half-century, natural rock phosphates (PN) have been a valuable alternative for phosphorus (P) fertilizer for sustainable agriculture; furthermore, phosphogypsum (PG) has been widely used as a soil amendment fertilizer since it improves some soil properties, increases crop yields, and represents an environmental concern that can make a good economic profit; this research aimed to study the effects of microbial consortia of phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms (PSM) on the solubilization of PN and PG in the soil, and their effects on promoting plant growth and nutrient assimilation using ryegrass as a plant model. Local supply of PG with Pseudomonas fluorescens (MW165744) significantly increases root proliferation and plant biomass dry weight compared to other isolates, as well as improves total P uptake, with a maximum value of 62.31 mg/pot. The opposite occurred in mixing inoculation with Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pantoea agglomerans (MW165752) and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (MW221274), with a negligible total P assimilation of 5.39 mg/pot. Whereas the addition of Pseudomonas agglomerans with PG gave outstanding total P absorption of 57.05 mg/pot when compared with PN input of 38.06 mg/pot. Finally, the results prove that the co-inoculation of Pseudomonas fluorescens with PG could be a promising and alternative option to use it as a source of P fertilizer for plants and to maintain a high level of nutrients in the soil.

“…Many PSMs secrete 1-aminocyclopropane-1carboxylic acid (ACC) deaminase enzyme that reduces the stress ethylene symptoms in plants during stress conditions. Such tiny organisms can therefore perpetuate ecological balance, produce safe food, and satisfy the demands of a sustainable agriculture plan (Rawat et al 2020). This review paper highlights the diverse means PSMs use for phosphorus dissolution, as well as their plant growth encouraging traits.…”

Phosphorus is the second most critical macronutrient after nitrogen required for metabolism, growth, and development of plants. Despite the abundance of phosphorus in both organic and inorganic forms in the soil, it is mostly unavailable for plant uptake due to its complexation with metal ions in the soil. The use of agrochemicals to satisfy the demand for phosphorus to improve crop yield has led to the deterioration of the ecosystem and soil health, as well as an imbalance in the soil microbiota. Consequently, there is a demand for an alternate cost-effective and eco-friendly strategy for the biofortification of phosphorus. One such strategy is the application of phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms which can solubilize insoluble phosphates in soil by different mechanisms like secretion of organic acids, enzyme production, and excretion of siderophores that can chelate the metal ions and form complexes, making phosphates available for plant uptake. These microbes not only solubilize phosphates but also promote plant growth and crop yield by producing plant-growth-promoting hormones like auxins, gibberellins, and cytokinins, antibiosis against pathogens, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid deaminase which enhances plant growth under stress conditions, improving plant resistance to heavy metal toxicity, and so on. Pyrroloquinoline quinine (pqq) and glucose dehydrogenase (gcd) are the representative genes for phosphorus solubilization in microorganisms. The content presented in this review paper focuses on different mechanisms and modes of action of phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms, their contribution to phosphorus solubilization, growth-promoting attributes in plants, and the molecular aspects of phosphorus solubilization.

“…The ability of microorganisms to solubilize phosphorus and zinc contributes to better nutrient absorption by the plant (Saravanan et al, 2011;Rawat et al, 2020). In this study, it was determined that S. cerevisiae has solubilizing capacity, showcasing its potential as a growth promoter.…”

The food industry generates substantial amounts of organic waste often underutilized within the system. Craft beer production, experiencing global rapid expansion, contributes to this waste stream with byproducts such as spent grain, trub, and yeast. Many craft beer industries discharge yeast residue directly into public water bodies. In recent years, yeasts have garnered attention for their potential to enhance plant growth and contribute to sustainable agriculture. This study focuses on characterizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast collected at the end of the craft beer fermentation process. Biomass characterization was conducted, and the yeast’s effect on lettuce and tomato seeds and seedlings was evaluated at four concentrations (105, 106, 107, and 108 cells mL−1) in sterile substrate. After 28 days, plant height, leaf number, fresh and dry weights of both aboveground and root parts, as well as chlorophyll content, were analyzed. The most effective concentration (107 cells mL−1) was applied to tomato seedlings in sterile substrate, compared with a commercial organic fertilizer. After 21 days, growth parameters were assessed. The study demonstrated that increasing yeast doses up to 108 cells mL−1 positively affects seed germination and seedling development. Notably, a dose of 107 cells mL−1 proved effective for application in seedlings as an organic amendment and substitute for commercial products. This integrated approach showcases the potential of yeasts in sustainable agriculture, utilizing byproducts from the food industry to enhance crop performance and mitigate environmental pollution.
