The increase in world's population is accompanied with increase in demand for food. Climate change worsens the situation by making plants more prone to abiotic and biotic stresses. To mitigate the inevitable impacts of climate change on agriculture, improving crop resilience to these stresses is crucial. Plant growth promoting rhizospheric microorganisms (PGPR) promotes plant growth through direct and indirect mechanisms. The ability to produce extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and develop biofilm enhances the chances of survival and amplifies the various associated mechanisms involved in promoting plant growth under stress conditions as compared to planktonic counterparts. Biofilm is a structured community of microbial cells which are often embedded in an extracellular matrix composed of EPS. Inoculation with biofilm forming microbes increases the production of osmolytes, antioxidant enzymes activities, maintains ionic homeostasis, etc. However, there is a need to explore crop and soil specific biofilm forming microbes.
