Abstract
Plant growth-promoting (PGP) microorganisms are bacteria and fungi associated with the plant holobiont that can positively
affect the health and growth of plants. Their beneficial activity is associated with a mixture of organic compounds produced
and released outside the cell, including phytohormones such as auxins and auxin-related compounds. This mini-review
describes the importance of using microbial exo-metabolites as postbiotics for developing innovative second-generation plant
biostimulants for sustainable agriculture
