Abstract

Microbe-assisted organopollutant removal, or in planta crop decontamination, is based on an interactive system between organopollutant-degrading endophytic bacteria (DEB_OP) and crops in alleviating organic toxins in plants. This script focuses on the fast-growing body of literature that has recently bloomed in organopollutant control in agricultural plants. The various facets of DEB_OP under study include their colonization, distribution, plant growth-promoting mechanisms, and modes of action in the detoxification process in plants. Also, an assessment of the biotechnological advances, advantages, and bottlenecks in accelerating the implementation of this decontamination strategy will be undertaken. The highlighted key research directions from this review will shape the future of agro-environmental sustainability and preservation of human health.
