However, the functional diversity of mung bean (\n                    <jats:italic>Vigna radiata<\/jats:italic>\n                    L.)\u2013associated bacterial communities and potential trade-offs between stress adaptation and antagonistic activity remain poorly understood. This study characterized endophytic bacteria from seeds and roots of mung bean cultivated in Ethiopia, to identify stress-resilient strains with biocontrol and plant growth-promoting potential. Twenty-eight endophytic bacteria were isolated from seeds (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u200916) and roots (\n                    <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u200912). Eight representative isolates were screened for abiotic stress tolerance, enzymatic activities, and antifungal potential. Four isolates (GMB R1, R2, S5, S6) showed robust thermotolerance (OD\u2086\u2080\u2080 &gt;0.58 at 45\u00a0\u00b0C), while others exhibited reduced growth at \u2265\u200940\u00a0\u00b0C. GMB R2 displayed exceptional pH tolerance (OD\u2086\u2080\u2080 &lt;15% reduction across pH 4\u201310), and strong drought osmotolerance (OD\u2086\u2080\u2080 = 0.91 under 40% PEG). ACC deaminase activity was detected in six isolates, and siderophore production in seven. Enzymatic profiling revealed strain-specific specialization: GMB R1 had the highest cellulase activity (index 2.5), GMB R2 highest chitinase (1.6), and GMB S5 highest protease (2.0). Dual culture assays against\n                    <jats:italic>Aspergillus flavus<\/jats:italic>\n                    showed strong antifungal activity. Molecular identification using 16S rRNA sequencing confirmed GMB R1 as\n                    <jats:italic>Pseudomonas fluorescens<\/jats:italic>\n                    , GMB R2 as\n                    <jats:italic>Pantoea agglomerans<\/jats:italic>\n                    , and GMB S5 as\n                    <jats:italic>Serratia marcescens<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Plant growth promotion assays demonstrated cross-host efficacy in wheat (\n                    <jats:italic>Triticum aestivum<\/jats:italic>\n                    L.) and rapeseed (\n                    <jats:italic>Brassica napus<\/jats:italic>\n                    L.): GMB R1 increased rapeseed radicle length by 149%, GMB R2 enhanced wheat shoot elongation and rapeseed plumule length by 127%, and GMB S5 improved wheat root dry weight by 85% and root length by 77%. Mung bean endophytes exhibit substantial functional diversity, with combined abiotic stress tolerance, enzymatic specialization, antifungal activity, and plant growth-promoting traits. The absence of trade-offs between stress adaptation and biocontrol, together with complementary activities among isolates, highlights the potential of these strains for development as multifunctional bioinoculants suitable for marginal agroecosystems.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10123-026-00897-y","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,24]],"date-time":"2026-09-24T04:21:08Z","timestamp":1790223668000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Stress-resilient endophytic bacteria from mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) with biocontrol and plant growth-promoting potential"],"prefix":"10.1007","author":[{"given":"Endeshaw","family":"Abatenh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Misrak","family":"Kebede","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2475-9703","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ebrahim M.","family":"Abda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"897_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","unstructured":"Abdul-Baki AA, Anderson JD (1973) Vigor determination in soybean seed by multiple criteria.
