Microbial modulation of hormone signaling, proteomic dynamics, and metabolomics in plant drought adaptation

AbstractThe symbiotic synergy between proteome shifts in plants and microbial colonization orchestrates adaptive responses. This thorough review delves into the less explored domain of proteomic and metabolomic changes triggered by drought stress, shedding light on how they are influenced by interactions with microbiota. Notably, microbial mediation at the crossroads of hormone signaling, proteomic and metabolomic dynamics in drought adaptation emerges as a crucial focal point. Understanding the regulatory mechanisms that orchestrate these complex interactions offers a holistic view of the molecular foundation underlying a plant's ability to endure water scarcity. The insights gained from this exploration hold the potential to reshape agricultural practices and enhance drought-tolerance through microbiota-mediated mechanisms, supported by proteomic and metabolomic insights. As this review seamlessly integrates the latest developments in understanding drought stress responses, microbiota dynamics, proteomics and metabolomic, it reveals the interconnected molecular basis that underlies these aspects. Specifically, the review emphasizes the crucial role of microbial mediation at the crossroads of hormone signaling, proteomic and metabolomic dynamics during drought adaptation. This enhanced understanding of the intricate interactions among these components presents new opportunities for envisioning sustainable agricultural approaches in the face of the escalating challenges prese...
