Resumo: Soil salinization poses a significant threat to global crop productivity, resulting in the degradation of arable lands and desertification. Plant growth-promoting microorganisms (PGPM) have emerged as potential allies in mitigating the adverse effects of salinity stress on plants. However, the role of halophilic archaea, a group of microorganisms commonly found in saline environments, in enhancing salt tolerance remains elusive due to cultivation limitations. In this study, we investigated the potential of haloarchaea isolated from the rhizosphere of Atriplex nummularia, a halophytic plant, to alleviate salt stress in maize plants.
