Vegetable cultivation is a promising economic activity, and vegetable consumption is important for human health due to the high nutritional content of vegetables. Vegetables are rich in vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, and several phytochemical compounds. However, the production of vegetables is insufficient to meet the demand of the ever-increasing population. Plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) facilitate the growth and production of vegetable crops by acquiring nutrients, producing phytohormones, and protecting them from various detrimental effects. In this review, we highlight well-developed and cutting-edge findings focusing on the role of a PGPR-based bioinoculant formulation in enhancing vegetable crop production. We also discuss the role of PGPR in promoting vegetable crop growth and resisting the adverse effects arising from various abiotic (drought, salinity, heat, heavy metals) and biotic (fungi, bacteria, nematodes, and insect pests) stresses.

Rapidly increasing worldwide industrialization has led to many environmental problems by the liberation of pollutants such as heavy metals. Day by day increasing metal contamination in soil and water can be best coped by the interaction of potential plant growth promoting rhizobacteria for plant growth. The effect of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) treatment on growth of chilli plant subjected to heavy metal stress was evaluated. Growth of chilli plant was examined with inoculation of two isolated PGPR (Lysinibacillus varians and Pseudomonas putida) under cadmium (30 ppm), lead (150 ppm) and the combination of heavy metal (Cd+Pb) stress condition. Among these two bacteria L. varians produced slightly better plant growth enhancement. Different growth parameters of chilli plants were reduced under heavy metal stress. Whereas, Cd and Pb tolerant PGPR inoculation, in root associated soil, enhanced plant growth development under test heavy metal contaminated soil. So, these PGPRs may easily be used as bio-fertilizers which will nullify the adverse effect of heavy metal on plant growth.

Effects Of Drought

Abiotic stresses arising from climate change negates crop growth and yield, leading to food insecurity. Drought causes oxidative stress on plants, arising from excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to inadequate CO2, which disrupts the photosynthetic machinery of plants. The use of conventional methods for the development of drought-tolerant crops is time-consuming, and the full adoption of modern biotechnology for crop enhancement is still regarded with prudence. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) could be used as an inexpensive and environmentally friendly approach for enhancing crop growth under environmental stress. The various direct and indirect mechanisms used for plant growth enhancement by PGPR were discussed. Synthesis of 1-aminocyclopropane−1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase enhances plant nutrient uptake by breaking down plant ACC, thereby preventing ethylene accumulation, and enable plants to tolerate water stress. The exopolysaccharides produced also improves the ability of the soil to withhold water. PGPR enhances osmolyte production, which is effective in reducing the detrimental effects of ROS. Multifaceted PGPRs are potential candidates for biofertilizer production to lessen the detrimental effects of drought stress on crops cultivated in arid regions. This review proffered ways of augmenting their efficacy as bio-inoculants under field conditions and highlighted future prospects for sustainable agricultural productivity.
