Applications of EPS-producing salt-tolerant bacteria.

Microorganisms	Crops	PGP trait	References
Halmonas variabilis HT1 Planococcus refietoensis RT4	Cicera rietinum	Increase in fresh weight, dry weight, total soluble sugars and protein contents Increase soil aggregation and biofilm formation	[82]
Rhizobium meliloti	Tomato	EPS with high succinoglycan and galactoglucon	[67]
Bacillus sp., (B. licheniformis, B. pumilus, B. coagulans, and B. insolitus) Paenibacillus sp., (P. macerans) Microbacterium sp. Burkholderia cepacia Enterobacter sp.	Wheat	Rhizospheric soil aggregation Decrease Na⁺ uptake and root biofilm formation	[12]
Pseudomonas anguilliseptica SAW 24	Faba bean	Enhance plant height and fresh/dry weight	[81]
Rhizobium and Pseudomonas	Zea Mays	Increase proline production Decrease electrolyte leakage along with maintenance of leaf relative water content and uptake of K⁺	[106]
Bacillus isolates and Mesorhizobium	Cicer arietinum L. (Chickpea)	Reduce concentration of Na⁺ in soil	[104]
Azotobacter chroococcum	Vicia faba L.	Enhanced N, P, and K concentrations, the proline content, RWC%, and the K⁺/Na⁺ ratio	[99]
Aeromonas spp. SAL-17 and SAL-21	Wheat	Increase in leaf proline content, nitrate reductase activity, chlorophyll a/b, stomatal conductance, transpiration rate, root length, and shoot length	[108]
Aeromonas hydrophila/caviae MAS765, Bacillus insolitus MAS17, and Bacillus sp. MAS617, MAS620, and MAS820	Wheat	Restricted passive flow of Na⁺ from the roots to stele in wheat crop and large root surface covered with soil	[107]
Marinobacter lipolyticus SM19 and B. subtilis subsp. inaquosorum	Wheat	Shoot and root dry weight Restricted Na⁺ uptake	[94] [83]
Pseudomonas aeruginosa PF07	Hellianthus annuus	Enhance Root Adhering Soil to Root Tissue ratio (RAS/RT)) and texture of the soil Increase porosity Improve uptake of nutrients	[84]
Enterobacter sp. MN17 and Bacillus sp. MN54	Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa)	Improved plant-water relations	[105]
Rhodopseudomonas palustris TN114 and PP803	-	Chelate Na +cations from aqueous environment	[100]
