endophytic-bacteria
Endophytic bacteria are microorganisms that live inside plant tissues—roots, stems, and leaves—without causing disease, often forming mutually beneficial relationships with their host. These bacteria can enhance plant growth, boost resistance to pathogens and environmental stress, and improve nutrient uptake by producing bioactive compounds and hormones. Studying endophytic bacteria helps researchers understand plant-microbe interactions and offers potential applications in sustainable agriculture, such as reducing reliance on chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
