Abstract
Methylotrophs are bacteria that can utilize single carbon compounds as their sole carbon source. These methylotrophic bacteria are present in the phyllosphere as well as in the rhizosphere. These bacterial populations promote plant growth by solubilizing phosphate, nitrogen fixation, acting as biocontrol agents, biosynthesis of phytohormones, and the production of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) deaminase and they also alleviate negative effects of salinity and are also involved in phytostimulation.
