Role of ACC Deaminase as a Stress Ameliorating Enzyme of Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria Useful in Stress Agriculture: A Review

Abstract

The crop production is inhibited by a large number of both biotic and abiotic stresses. These stresses include presence of toxic heavy metals, high salt, flood, drought, temperature, wounding, various pathogens, etc. The agricultural production was intensified by management of these stresses with increased use of chemicals, and it needs more attention for incoming population explosion. These chemical inputs caused several harmful effects on the environment and sustainable agriculture. It is ne3cessary to decrease dependence of chemical input for sustainable agriculture with a holistic approach and also essential for environmental protection. One such possible approach is the use of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase-producing plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) to protect the crop plants from the harmful effects of both biotic and abiotic stresses. The enzyme ACC deaminase (EC 4.1.99.4) regulates stress ethylene production by catalysing ACC into α-ketobutyrate and ammonia. Various research works have documented the application of ACC deaminase-producing PGPR under both normal and stressed conditions responsible for the increased growth, health and productivity of crop plant. These beneficial rhizobacteria may decrease the dependence on agrochemicals (fertilizer and pesticides) to stabilize the agroecosystems and maintained sustainable agriculture. Different biochemical and biophysical properties of this enzyme and its regulation have been briefly described. This review also describes the role of ACC deaminase enzyme in plant growth and production by ameliorating different stress conditions including heavy metal, salinity, drought, flood, temperature, etc. Finally, the latest paradigms for useful application of ACC deaminase-containing plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria in different agroecosystems have been discussed comprehensively under stress conditions to highlight the recent scenario with the aim to develop future insights.
