Abstract: | "Microbial volatile compounds (MVCs) are produced during the metabolism of microorganisms, are widely distributed in nature, and have significant applications in various fields. To date, several MVCs have been identified. Microbial groups such as bacteria and fungi release many organic and inorganic volatile compounds. They are typically small odorous compounds with low molecular masses, low boiling points, and lipophilic moieties with high vapor pressures. The physicochemical properties of MVCs help them to diffuse more readily in nature and allow dispersal to a more profound distance than other microbial non-volatile metabolites. In natural environments, plants communicate with several microorganisms and respond differently to MVCs. Here, we review the following points: (1) MVCs produced by various microbes including bacteria, fungi, viruses, yeasts, and algae; (2) How MVCs are effective, simple, efficient, and can modulate plant growth and developmental processes; and (3) how MVCs improve photosynthesis and increase plant resistance to various abiotic stressors" |
