Summary
as soil, water and diversity. Bio-inoculants can be a tool to favor this transition, as they can replace or complement agrochemicals that do not meet the above premises. Bio-inoculants generated from endophytic filamentous fungi and mycorrhizal fungi, whether used individually, in combination with each other or with other microorganisms, stand out for their potential. This review provides information on how bio-inoculants based on these microorganisms have been shown to increase crop yield and quality through strategies, such as increasing nutrient uptake or levels of certain phytohormones. On how they can promote tolerance to abiotic stresses, including heavy metals, elevated temperatures, salinity or drought, through strategies, such as the accumulation of osmoregulatory substances or in
