Summary
Production and application of plant beneficial microorganisms (PBM) is now one of the most promising fields of research. The period of searching for easy to cultivate soil microorganisms, their characterization, and testing in controlled conditions was replaced by another one with studies on novel, more efficient and economic fermentation mode of production and formulations. Co-cultivation and formulation of compatible PBM and inclusion of various additives in the formulations become fundamental part of the overall production technology. Another, pivotal point of the new approach to understand and manage the functional and genetic role of soil microorganisms in the soil–plant systems, is the comparison between human gut microbiome and plant microbiome. Following the human gut example, new
