Synthetic microbial communities (SynComs) perform more stably than single strains, providing a new approach for saline-alkali soil improvement. Two synthetic communities SynCom1 and SynCom2 were assembled from plant rhizosphere salt-tolerant isolates via antagonism and co-culture assays. Six treatments were established to test SynCom inoculation effects. A represented non-sterilized soil added with SynCom1; B represented non-sterilized soil added with SynCom2, C represented non-sterilized soil supplemented with LB medium as control; D represented sterilized soil added with SynCom1; E represented sterilized soil added with SynCom2; F represents sterilized soil supplemented with LB medium as control. This design was used to distinguish the respective effects of SynComs, indigenous soil microorganisms and fermentation medium. SynComs enhanced the growth of maize plants, and decrease soil pH and electrical conductivity. Specifically, SynCom1 increased the activities of soil urease, alkaline phosphatase, and dehydrogenase under unsterilized environment (P < 0.05). The absolute quantification of 16 S RNA revealed that both agents caused an increase of absolute bacterial abundance in sterilized soil, compared to unsterilized soil. Notably, SynCom2 led to an increase in the beneficial genera including Streptomyces and Micromonospora. In unsterilized soil, the co-occurrence network of SynCom1 exhibited the highest complexity. However, in sterilized soil, the network inoculated with SynCom2 showed greater stability than that with SynCom1. Functional prediction revealed that SynCom1 mainly participated in basal energy metabolism, while SynCom2 activated secondary metabolism in non-sterilized soils. In sterilized soils, the two communities were enriched in colonization adaptation and nutrient metabolism functions, respectively.

In the current study silybin, a flavonoid lignan from Silybum marianum, emerged as a potential QS modulator against both pathogens based on an integrated computational and experimental approach. Molecular docking studies predicted favourable interactions of silybin to the four regulatory proteins (-14.76 to -12.34 kcal/mol for AbaI and AbaR, -10.20 to -9.83 kcal/mol for AgrA and AgrC), binding functionally important amino acid residues in their active sites.

These vesicles mediate intercellular communication through delivery of diverse bioactive cargo, including proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, metabolites, and signaling molecules. Initially recognized as virulence determinants in pathogenic bacteria, BEVs are increasingly recognized as multifunctional platforms with potential applications in sustainable agriculture. This review examines BEV biogenesis, cargo composition, plant uptake, and emerging roles in plant growth promotion, stress adaptation, and disease resistance. Emphasis is placed on BEV-mediated modulation of plant immunity through pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), pattern-triggered immunity (PTI), and induced systemic resistance (ISR). Potential roles of vesicle-associated phytohormones, ACC deaminase, siderophores, extracellular enzymes, and regulatory RNAs in nutrient acquisition, phytohormone homeostasis, and stress responses are critically evaluated. Emerging evidence linking BEVs to drought, salinity, heat, heavy metal, and nutrient-deficiency responses is examined, with emphasis on antioxidant defense, osmotic adjustment, ion homeostasis, and stress-responsive signaling. The review also discusses engineered BEVs as potential biostimulants, nano-biofertilizers, biocontrol agents, and precision delivery systems, including CRISPR-based engineering, synthetic vesicles, AI-guided cargo optimization, and smart nanoformulations. Major challenges include scalable production, standardization, biosafety, regulation, and field validation. However, critical knowledge gaps remain regarding BEV perception, cellular uptake, cargo delivery, and the causal basis of plant responses, together with uncertainties surrounding biosafety, reproducibility, and performance under field conditions. Collectively, BEVs represent promising biological nanocarriers for climate-resilient and sustainable agriculture, but further mechanistic, methodological, and field-based research is required to establish their reliability and practical agricultural potential.</p>","PeriodicalId":23703,"journal":{"name":"World journal of microbiology & biotechnology","volume":"42 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2026-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149128263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
