Abstract

Plant growth-promoting bacteria that contain the enzyme 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase facilitate plant growth and development by decreasing plant ethylene levels, especially following a variety of environmental stresses. In this review, the physiological basis for this growth-promotion effect is examined in some detail. In addition, models are presented that endeavour to explain (i) the seemingly paradoxical effects of ethylene on a plant's response to stress, (ii) how the expression of this enzyme is transcriptionally regulated in many bacterial strains and (iii) how ACC deaminase-containing plant growth-promoting bacteria alter plant gene expression and positively modulate plant growth.
